Longhorn1000 Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 Ok, so here's the update This afternoon, went to a local hardware shop and bought.......what are these called in english? decided to stick them overlapped like this with hot glue done so, we are gonna leave this aside for now this is the original position of the acrylic and this is the new position how bout this? I'll figure it out tomorrow. so I decided to make a center piece today 3cm in width...dunno the length yet there we go, 1 down, 3 to go em.bonus XD lol here is a piece of metal bezel with huge holes and a roll of aluminum bezel, with small holes on the big side decided to cut it till it fits the middle hole first piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longhorn1000 Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 transmission recovered........... note, this is at night so = not so good lighting cut the piece to fit the holes next aha, let's get the painting party started from left to right grey( base ), matte black ( first/second coating), yellow ( final coating ) base done second and first and second coat done I painted each coat in a 5-7 minutes interval first and second coat complete as you can see, I'm sticking tapes on it to make patterns and when you see the results, it might be a little nasty as I wanna create a scuffed and old effect using the yellow paint done............now I have to wait for a long time...... stay tuned guys, the final results will be up soon Transmission complete......

A piece of cardboard make it 2 decided to stick the long piece onto the base with tapes for now align the cards to the side This may not be the most accurate measurement of all time but, trust me, it works sorry E4, it seems that I may need to use you first drew out the sketched side cut it there's a hole !! O_O don't worry about a thing, the glue will do the rest stick it to the sides but will it fit the long piece of acrylic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longhorn1000 Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 fits ;D probably one of the hardest step......making them stick together in an angle done new one sand it had to put some weigh as the big piece kept tilting upwards looks badass the other side next side an hour later.......I had to get some glue as the hot glue gum finished time for some paint job and again, the base ( interior ) first coat ( matte black ) outer coat done ok then....this is for today...
