Very good video. Full watch. Great demonstration. A lot of time and energy spent. Many times I take apart my work after it did not cure right . I had to learn the hard way to wait it out until it cured fully. Your finish is awesome. Mike Espo .
I feel you. Sometimes there no way around than learning the hard way. Still, it is progress and you can take something away for the next time. Thank you very much Mike!
You are such a great artist. The way you explained even the minut detailed tutorials are really amazing. This video makes an amateur to do the start with confidence. Thanks mate 🎉. Cheers
Guess i gotta try it out then, your tutorials are amazing. recently i made a s13 custom which turned out great bc ur making headlights tutorial helped me
Sehr sehr stark. ich hab im moment irgendwie 4 zerlegte hotwheels rum liegen die alle auf ein bodykit warten aber ich hab noch zu viel respekt vor der arbeit :P
Danke dir. Ging mir in der Anfangsphase auch ähnlich. Scheue dich nicht davor Fehler zu machen. Bis ich den Dreh raus hatte und es so gut klappt wie jetzt, hat es auch einige Male nicht funktioniert ;D Augen zu und durch, egal wie das Ergebnis aussieht, du bist danach inner einen Schritt weiter, ich kann dich dazu nur ermutigen.
From the UK, love your content! Gives me a great idea and techniques I can adapt for my post apocalyptic cars! Very helpful for my budget of a wad of gum!
Man, this was amazing. I liked the green one a lot. But more the craftsmanship than the "car design", let's say. That magnet bumper also a great touch. And the paint effect is astonishing. Have you ever tried to do a body kit from epoxy putty? I did do some widebody fenders for a 65 Mustang Fastback that I later painted, etc. but they didn't come out too good. Not sure if not possible with it, or I just didn't let them cure enough. But I was expecting more of a seamless result like yours, and it just looks a bit off. I don't really care since the end result was going to be a key for my bike, and I love it as such, but a bit disappointed on it. Either way, great work, amazing result and super inspiring. Keep it up, bud!
Thank you very much my man! Yes indeed, before the 2K Resin I did all of my widebodys with "Epo Putty" which is basically a 2K Epoxy Clay. Works great and was the material that has been widely used inside the Custom Hot Wheels Community, probably still is. Did you mix it properly? And in what kind of manner did it look off? Does it have an expiry date?
@@themodelcarproject I have no more experience than this work I did, so I can't say I mixed properly or not. I guess I did, because I use equal parts and mixed until it was uniform, but maybe I did something wrong? It was not expired because I had just bought it (although they could have sold it to me while expired, but I don't think so). When I say "look off", I mean it looks a bit grainy instead of smooth, kind of with a couple of strands at places, and even if it was hard I was never fully confident to sand fully, so it kind of still looks like "putty molded with my hand but a bit smoother".
@@JuanManuelTastzian Okay, so didn't you sand it at all or just here and there where needed? And if yes, what kind of sandpaper did you use? (If the grit is unknown, was it quite rough or more on the smoother side, just from the feel of your fingers?) Regarding concerns about curing: When I mix my Resin or Epo Putty, theres always some material left unused. Just keep it, let it react and then you can make a hardness test with your nails or a screwdriver, just to get familiar with the material. If you've already thrown it away, you could mix a (normal, not too small) amount again, just to check how hard it gets. Because some materials are by default a bit softer than others. For example: If I dont put any baby powder inside the 2k Resin, it is very soft compared to the baby powder 2k mix. Hope this helps in some regard!
@@themodelcarproject thanks a lot, man! Really appreciate the tips. Whether they work for me specifically or not, I really appreciate you taking the time here. Keep up the amazing work! ❤️
The more you customize and try new mods, the better you will get at customizing hot wheels. If you look at my much older builds, they are made much simpler.
Excellent video Sir, may I ask where does one get the resin and hardener that you used in this video-TYIA also I would love to get that same decal sheet, TY- JC -Welcome back
Thank you very much! Resin: I've used R&G Resin, but most of the other resins out there should work as well. Decals: I buy my Decals on ebay, try keywords like: 1 64, waterslide decal, decals, or other scales like 1 43 and 1 87 work sometimes too. Carbon Fiber stickers that I've used are made by Tamiya.
Thanks my man. I buy my Decals on ebay, try keywords like: 1 64, waterslide decal, decals, or other scales like 1 43 and 1 87 work sometimes too. Carbon Fiber stickers that I've used are made by Tamiya.
I prefer epo putty, longer to harden but easier to applicate IMO, but great work ! I'm still amazed of your work quality on this scale. I do 1/43 tuning, and my results are not as cool as yours
For sure you can use whatever fits your needs. In some scenarios I would still consider using epo putty. You will get there, great results come frome lots of practice, keep going.✌️
Just in time for my first wide body attempt, I ordered some tamiya putty just waiting for it to come in. Will the 2k work for kits? Didn’t know about the 1k/2k differences and just ordered what looked like it would work ❤
2k is the way to go. 1ks have a very long drying time and usually dont get near as hard as a 2k material. The Difference between them is that 2k materials are always A and B parts which needs to be mixed. 1k is just 1 material, the other "reaction" component is air, to put it in another way. Happy customizing!

"Do not do metal" was perfect lol
Where can I get some of those ENKEI Decals? lol I worked there for like 9 years, and I still love the wheels! lol
Faz o isolamento com fogo e cera fica fácil a remoção da resina depois
