      Thanks, Russ. I'd love to open a barn door and find a Cobra Jet inside! 🍁☕️😀

      Thanks, John. I'd rather see a Cobra Jet fully restored, but ratty was the theme! 🍁☕

    Salut maple.
    Ce rusty est magnifique, un gros et beau travail, faut une grande patience et ne pas aller trop vite pour faire ça. Ouf , superbe miniature. 😉

    Very classy, understated job o' work, Andrew. You've got these special finishes really sorted....... and that's no mean feat on such a small scale 👍🏻🇨🇦👏🏻🇬🇧👌🏻🇨🇭

    • @MapleLeafCustoms
      @MapleLeafCustoms  3 місяці тому

      Thanks, Jack. The rust effects are especially challenging in small scale. Easy to go too big. I'll keep at it. Have your hair combed next week for Petra's pink car! 🍁☕😂

    • @MapleLeafCustoms
      @MapleLeafCustoms  3 місяці тому +1

      Saw it and enjoyed your work, Dan. The sea salt chips are big for this scale, but rust is rust and takes many different shapes and forms. There's no right or wrong. I've landed on using just regular table salt and some washes. We'll both keep at it! 🍁☕

    The classic restorations are nailed by you, but MAN you take it to another level with a weathered look. Andrew, this is magnificent….almost to the level of the Land Rover I have from you! 😊 All joking aside, this is tremendous.

    • @MapleLeafCustoms
      @MapleLeafCustoms  3 місяці тому +1

      Thanks for the high praise, David. The weathered look is one of many styles that I'm trying to get just right. The variety is good for me and the viewers too. 🍁☕️
