Again, I love your work! My grandsons and I follow watch your channel as we enjoy the hobby. Inspirational labor of love. Please keep up the good work!
@@algray1195 Hey Al. Thank you so much for the kind words and watching. I’m glad you enjoy the videos and I’m in the process of making more content for everyone. The spray booth was purchased and it’s from Master Airbrush. It’s actually portable and there is an exhaust fan with a hose attachment. I’ll post a link here where you can find it on Amazon for more information. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions. www.amazon.com/Master-Airbrush-Portable-Painting-T-shirts/dp/B00BMUH8L6/ref=mp_s_a_1_10?dchild=1&keywords=spray+booth&qid=1608173674&sr=8-10
Thank you! It's so easy to get carried away with and do too much. At first , I wasn't even going to do as much as I ended up with but As I kept working on it I really started liking the look. Thanks again!!
I have seen a lot of weathering builds but you absolutely nailed it. I grew up on a farm and this is a farmers truck. Not over done, it's just what we use to see pull up in the hay fields or at the tobacco barns when neighbors came together to help each other. It takes me back. You even captured the smell the interior!!! I have never attempted to weather a model but you have inspired me Sir. Off to Hobby Lobby tomorrow morning to pick up a pickup. Thank You.
Thank you for the kind words and Glad I helped inspire you. Just have fun doing it and use some reference photos online and you’re set. Thanks for watching my friend!
Thank you sir! It was a blast to do and I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I plan to do some more used trucks/vehicles in the future. Thanks again! Hope you have a Happy New Year!
Thanks! It makes a perfect work truck. New video dropping soon and I’ll be working on a utility truck next. I can’t wait to do it. Thanks for watching!
Thanks man much appreciated!! I didn’t know how I felt about the color at first but I love how it came out on the truck. Wish I had it in real life in the same condition lol I just love the character it has.
It was a ton of fun to do the rusting. This was the first build I ever rusted up or made to look weathered. Was really relaxing and enjoyable to do. You should definitely give it a go. Thanks again!
An excellent video. I had already planned to make this kit my next model and like you, my thoughts were to make it a "time-weary" daily driver, so this video is extremely useful for me and very inspiring. I'm glad to hear that the kit goes together well. The reason being that I'm just finishing a '62 Bel Air and it's fought me all the way and taken forever, so I need a change of pace. Anyhow, I like your choice of colours on this model and I think the end result looks superb. I'm going to try a two-tone green, I think (probably not factory colours, but hey-ho. Such is our privilege as model builders). You've helped me make up my mind about the chrome becoming white; it looks so much better! I may also try the use of a black primer for the shadow effect, too. I've used the "hairspray" technique before and it worked out well. I find weathering a lot of fun, as long as you don't get carried away. Sometimes less is more. Another tip for large chrome wheels is to give them a coat of Tamiya Smoke (X-19) which tones them down and makes them look far less "toy-like". Anyway, keep up the good work. Thank you for sharing, for your inspiration and keeping the fun in the hobby.
Thanks so much And Very much appreciated! Just checked out yours and you have some nice builds. Gonna dive into some of your videos and just subbed! Looking forward to how your group build turns out!
Thanks for watching man! Yea I didn’t have anything else at the time so just used what I had. I finally picked up the fire orange for my future builds lol.
Like I said about the hood parts I would glue them in place hold the side parts in place a few minutes to set then put it aside next day the side hood parts would be on table or laying flat inside hood
I built three of these hoods and haven't had that problem. The 65 Stepside, 66 Fleetside, and 66 Suburban. I use a emory board and carefully square/true up the parts to each other and test fit them. I use a tiny dab of BSI thick CA on the corner of each part. Then follow up with a brush of Plastiweld or Tamiya capillary glue/weld. Afterward when cured enough (a few minutes) I'll take a emory board and true up any minor mismatched edges then square up the hood to the body if needed. On the Suburban I used Testors precision cement instead of CA to tack glue the hood parts.
That's a great technique to use and would have helped me a lot. I'm thinking of possibly doing another one of these kits but as a cleaned up version so I will definitely try this out. Thanks for the tip!!
Thanks so much! Yes, the primer I used was Rust-oleum Rusty Metal Primer but any rust color will work. Then I lightly sanded until the primer color started to show through. For different color variations of rust I used a product called “Testors Creative FX rust stain” and some other craft paints that were different shades of the primer color. Hope this helps and greatly appreciate the kind words.
Doing this kit myself right now, also planning on doing a rusting weather job very similar. i've never done the hair spray technique but i may give it.a try based on your results. how did you touch up your chrome and other parts after cutting them off the sprue? i tend to take them all off, clean them up and assemble what I can prior to paining. i also use a degreaser on the chrome, clean them up and then rechrome after since i can never get the touch ups to look right. i'll be adding garbage such as old chip bags, a scratch build trash can, beer/pop cans etc, thinking of making the seat look torn. what did you use for the chain? that is a nice addition. overall good work.
watch my latest video, I did the sat method and honestly preferred it over the hairspray but both work well. I just cut the sprue with sprue cutters and filed it down as close as I could. I painted over the chrome since this was a gonna be old I figured it wouldn’t matter. The chains were literally little chain from hobby lobby. In my last model I used some metal form a coke can to make a license plate. Thanks for watching friend!
Just ran across your vid great job on the farm truck really love the rust/age btw I also enjoyed the music at the end can you tell me who that is happy new year!!!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video and build. Definitely one of my favorites of 2020. As for the song, it’s called “Rural Stride” by Josh Kirsch. Here’s a link to it on UA-cam ua-cam.com/video/UwX0Xvu-8Jg/v-deo.html Happy new year friend!
Nice work! If you dont mind me asking,what technique / products did you use to get the faded and dusty look? Would love to see a step by step tutorial of whole process.Looks great!
Thanks! I used Tamyia pigments for this one (sand) to get the dusty look but any sandy color pigments would work. Yea, this was one of my early UA-cam videos and I was still learning lol I try to add much more technique in the newer videos incase anyone is curious how I do something. Thanks for watching!!
Hey thanks for watching! The boards are just small popsicle sticks I cut, the “chicken wire” is a patch used to fix your window screen and the little chain was just some small chain I found at hobby lobby. Pretty cheap and came in a spool. The tarp is toilet paper. I took some TP and put it in a mixture of water and and mod podge. Laid it in the truck and let it dry, then painted it and weathered it.
Amazing job. Can you tell me what paint you used for the Engine Red? I'm having trouble finding the right color. I usually use the Rustoleum 2x paints.
Thanks man! The red I used is probably too red for a chevy engine but it was gloss apple red, rustoleum (all I had at the time). I recently just picked up a Rustoleum satin fire red that I think is a lot better. The satin red is an enamel and takes longer to dry fyi. I used it in my last video on the modified if you wanna see how it looks. thanks for watching!
@@MyHobbyWorkShop Funny, I have the gloss apple as well and think it's too red. I'll try the other. Many, your weathering is just jaw dropping. Incredible.
It’s on my list of movie cars to come. I’ll also be doing Biffs Ford, the Ecto 1 and a couple others. I plan on doing a lot of extra detail in the Delorean.
Hmm I’ll have to pull out the instructions and see if I remember. There’s a channel called right on replicas and he does a step by step break down on how to put this together.
Thanks man, much appreciated!! Subbed as well. Looks like you got some nice builds coming up! I have the same AT-AT walker and I’m definitely excited to work on it.
@@MyHobbyWorkShop Yeah that AT-AT is a really easy build I think it took me 5-8 mins to build. The Paint was the longest part of the build. Thanks for the sub its appreciated.
Yep hair spray. I’ll probably end up doing a video in the future dedicated to how I do rust effects but you can look up “hair spray technique” on UA-cam and find a bunch of videos showing you. Thanks for watching!
@GT Classic Plastic yea I heard about the technique a long time ago but never used it so figured I would give it a shot and it worked out great. Really let’s you control how much rust you want in certain areas.
Fantastic build and video, thanks for sharing
That's the look we're hoping for on our kit. Nice work!
Wow! Looks awesome. Love the attention to detail! Can’t wait for more
Thanks! More to come so stay tuned.
just getting into modeling like what you did and your videoing will be looking at more thanks for your time.
That is some beautiful weathering. Great work.
Thanks so much!
That thing is awesome.
Thanks so much!
Again, I love your work! My grandsons and I follow watch your channel as we enjoy the hobby. Inspirational labor of love. Please keep up the good work!
Could you tell us more about your spray booth? Home made or scratch built? What kind of motor/fan do you have pulling out vapors?

I love that Mexican blanket seat cover.
I wasn’t going to use it at first but figured what the hell. It comes with the kit and looks perfect
Looks really good. Got an old Ford truck that I’ll try some of the weathering that you gave yours.
Great job, I’m going to try that paint job
that turned out spot on grungy .not too much but just the right amount of rust and grime . just subbed you .

Awesome build my friend! Just enough weathering to give it the well used look! Enjoyed the video.
Thank you sir! It was a blast to do and I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I plan to do some more used trucks/vehicles in the future. Thanks again! Hope you have a Happy New Year!
Great build video. Love the hairspray technique.
That's one hell of an imagination 😁
Thank you!
Amazing build sir. The weathering turned out great.
Thanks man and thanks for checking out the video

How come when everyone does the dirty ole work truck or vehicle they don't make the glass look like it's starting delaminate around the edges?
For me, The Glass is hard to mess with and if you screw it up you can’t really cover it up or fix it. But I may have to try to next time
can you make it a 4wd truck
I'm sure you can scratch build to turn this into a 4WD but just using what is in the box, it's a 2WD.
1:22 then builds a rusted out truck great build tho
