yes you are right zyko
somebody got a cool idea to hang some antlers on the front ... so i imidiatly though some tiny tree / plant branches could make a great set of antlers haha i will try to find some

started on a vintage coce cooler box , already designed and printed some logos .. waighting till the paint dryes so i can use some chrome on the hinges and ...

finished the cooler itself , i will make a small frame it sits on , slightly elevated with wheels under that
not 100% happy on the coke logos i need to buy some decal paper now i have a printer , regulair paper is fine for signs and logos but on the cooler it shows the edges to much

today i bought some rust pigment powder from valeo and tested it on the cooler , whow that stuff really becomes like realistic rust



some pics of the whole .....

also used the valeo pigment powder on the ruststripes and corners of the big roof sign , over the rust i painted on and whow even that became better .. love that stuff

this is the start of the antlers , just a rough base where i can build the shape on , made from revell 32 ford exhaust pipes lol



gave the cooler some chrome , put some legs under it and redid the logos so they where a tad better to read (les wheathered)

styrene antlers ? lol



after some sanding , primer and a wash



the base plate will get some paint later








now my goal is to make a wooden rocking chair ........

wow, even more. I didn't even have time to comment on the last update I'm sure I've asked this before, but how many hours is there in a day where you live?

thnx zyko ... and whell i never counted must be like 50 hours in a day
lol
no seriously in the weekends i build a lot of hours straight and on weekdays usually 1 to 1 and a half hour per day
i just build and paint fast lol

i redid the no smoking sign .. and on the left you see a very rough start on the garage service area



i used mostly the worst scrap stuff i could pcik out of the wood box , the slanted part was a old attic part i made for the garage back then , used some paint stirrers and a piece of crappy wood ..
just needs to be a stirdy base to build on looks at this point dont matter
the roof is the same angle as the bog roof and will get the same shingles



at first the garage was twice as wide but something broke when i layed the base .. afterwards i'm glad because its just about right now ..
now i have some room beside it for a wooden fence and a grass part where i will put some abandoned cars on
door wise i will make 2 big wooden barn-like doors for the garage

just building , no plan , box of wood and crap on my lap and just build

made round pillars on the corners , that fits with the round struts of the front roof



put some wood on the sides





used the pick-up for size thats a pretty big model in comparison to the hotrods , so if that just fits its good imo





bed cover off and load some wood ? lol




like said on the left i have free space so i will make a wooden fence next to the garage and then grass all the way to the front with a big tree and some abandoned vehicles and some parts lying around

Loving the idea with the abandoned cars and grass, too cool!
