I've just started making some of my first cars. One thing that I really like how it looks is if you scrape off the paint in some spots to get bits of the die-cast metal to show through. I got the idea after watching some blacksmith make a sword. He took a piece of rusty steel and cut it in half. Steel was super shiny in the center.
Cool idea! That happens to my cars from time to time especially when I'm using pencils on em, I usually end up keeping the scratch cuz it looks natural.
You've talked me into a rotary tool. I got a variable speed cordless Dremel, seems to be a good choice, as well as a set of drill bits that will fit the chuck and still large enough to drill out the rivets. We'll see how it goes!
Awesome truck, I think that Bullfrog is a fitting name for it. This turned out really great, I love all of the weathering and the extras you added in. That idea of using a rollbar from another car to protect the engine worked out really well and looks wicked. With all the painting, washes, and pencil work you did here I was surprised to hear you keep saying it was only a side character car... If this is a side character, I can't wait to see what you do to a hero/main character vehicle. 😱 Great stuff, thanks for sharing, and keep on keeping on!! (P.S. - This the is 2nd video of yours I've seen since Jay sent me here. Off to watch your painting/weathering tutorials now. You obviously know what you're doing, so I am hoping I can learn a thing or two from you.)
Been wanting to get into this kind of hobby lately and have been watching many different channels. This morning this video showed up on my feed and I had to watch it. You have done a fantastic job and are very inspiring. I am subscribing and will watch all your videos now. I love your work man you deserve way more subs that you currently have.
Nice build I love start to finish car builds. for the name maybe dusty? Idk im bad at car names. Btw it seems like every video gets better than the last keep it up.
Since the buggy is called Catfish, I think the truck could be named Gator or Bullfrog. Or... heck it's the wastes, named after the mutant wasteland fauna, the Gatorfrog. (And why is that not a SyFy movie yet? )

Nice build! Mine have been a bit more simplistic so far, but this gives me some great inspiration.

Nice video, I love your car.
I'll will be nice to put the link of your video suggestions in the description.
I just barely found the colored pencil technique today. Cool stuff.
Excellent execution 👍💪🏁
Thanks ✌

This is baddas custom work gasland and many part of detail thanks for sharing 😍😍
If you're looking for a rust-colored primer, you might want to try Stynylrez red-brown. It's pretty versatile and might be what you're looking for.
I've seen em available here! Shipping atm is quite congested in NZ, but I'll put it on the list for when I grab that color primer.
Man that tarp is so cool, gonna use it in my projects too

Cheers dude, that means a lot! There's a lot more of these types of builds in the pipeline.
very cool man! loving this series, and love that "Ruk Truck"
Glad to hear! Got more of em on the way.
Outstanding build and video!! New subscriber Eddie from simple kustoms!! Simple kustoms by Eddie Papandrea on utube!!! Great stuff 👏!!
How about the horbert lobster!!! Lol

Both of those are really really good! Bullfrog's great for this one's look, and I think Gator might fit something on the workbench...
@@CementSaul Now I'm curious as to what's on the workbench. :)
Very cool
Please don't take this the wrong way but you sound like if Morgan Freeman was the slingshot channel guy :D Like your videos, though!
Good stuff but the salt chipping should be near the edges of panels not slap bang in the middle
