Title: Dirty Ford
Post by: James2 on August 07, 2017, 09:57:25 AM
Pretty basic build, It was really a test for the weathering technique in a how-to Clay Kemp did.

 James2;

  I like the build a lot, but would dial back the dirt about a click and a half. With weathering less gives better contrast.

Weathering.......... that's something that scares me.  :-\
You did a great job on this one, James.
Need to run it by the quarter car wash.  ::)

This is fantastic......looks like the track crew needed to drop a few more gallons of H2O on the clay though  :)

Nice technique work James. The rain delay must have led to a huge night at the concession stand and after the shower passed and the greasy track got run in a little, I imagine it was good racing on a tacky-fast track!

Man James...you nailed it on the dirt. The car looks like it just pitted after HOT laps during the PACK'n process. Orrr...maybe at the end of a heat race... I've seen a lot of cars that were Dirtier.
