    Yeah, that really was a disaster! It looks very good and now you can see the panel lines with that thick paint gone. Excellent weathering and just a great tutorial. Thanks for sharing your hard work on this.

    @xCPTxNEMO 5 лет назад +4

    Once again good work, the method you use for the patina is very effective.
    I’ve got a suggestion for you, if you wish to continue exploring the farm truck style, perhaps maybe cut the bed off something to create a flat bed / tray back. I was in a rural part of the USA last month and noticed quite a few trucks with that conversion.

  • @Tiger351
    @Tiger351 5 лет назад +1

    Top job Danny, looks much better than it did now! I had a few Zylmex cars as a kid, they were a bit hit and miss, some had the metal base like this one and were fairly sturdy, while others were more like the late plastic base Corgis and fairly flimsy in comparison.

  • @wadehendryx7378
    @wadehendryx7378 5 лет назад +3

    Zylmex are ALSO the only roughly matchbox sized company to ever make a true Crown school bus casting, they went with the duel rear axles. I prefer the single, but they ARE the only people that ever even made one. I had one as a kid, found it for a few cents in a Goodwill. Now I'm kicking myself in the ass for ever losing the damn thing.

    I really love your weathering and rusting technique, Danny! And I appreciate you doing a Zylmex/Zee. I used to have these besides the Hot Wheels and Matchboxes and Playarts. Maybe you can find a Playart vehicle to restore or customize sometime? BTW, I love the music you use for the "final reveal" as it were.

    With the body curing? It's sitting right there in the upper left of the shot UNPAINTED. You obviously cut the shots out of sequence when you edited the video. If you want us to buy your sequential narrative, next time make sure there isn't something in the shot that betrays your real sequence. 😉

      @@DannysDiecastDisasters I SAID it was edited in my comment. I was only commenting on the fact that you SAID you were going to work on the base while the body cured. But the unpainted body was actually IN the shot. I simply mentioned the incongruity, that's all.
      I catch old movies out like that all the time. You know, like when you see someone from the front and their shirt's tucked. Then the camera switches to a back shot and it's untucked. Then back to the front again and it's tucked again. There are small inconsistencies like that in a lot of shows and movies. It's just that, being OCD, things like that tend to stand out to me.
