Mod 101 - masking

Too much boredom and yet, I can't continue with my other pending projects because I got no materials available. So, I decided to play with some paint and my little F100 here by Hot Wheels and to practice my most hated part in customizing - MASKING.

I drew a flame pattern on a masking tape then cut it out. I also used a marker to add some detail to the flames.

Then, I thought it would be hotter in orange.

The color scheme reminds me of the character Darth Maul of Star Wars. :-D

Though I'm already happy with the outcome, I still need to practice more... and more.

Thanks for looking ;)

Hot Wheels Batman Begins Tumbler (Camouflage)

I recently acquired my favorite Batmobile which is the Tumbler! This is the camouflage version or the original version before Bruce Wayne had it painted black and called it the Tumbler.

This 1:64 scale Tumbler came from the 2 pack Batman Begins (half moon packaging).

Those big rubber tires give it the "Macho" look.

 

 

And the gimmick which makes this one part of the limited edition set: roof/door is opening.

I'm still looking for the black version. Hope to find one soon :)

Thanks for looking! :)

Hot Wheels $Treasure Hunt Morris Mini (black)

Got a Super Treasure Hunt Morris Mini yesterday. It is already out of the blister or loose when sold to me by a DCPH member. So it means, cheaper :-)

For me it is better to get it loose not just because it's cheaper but also, it is easier for me because I don't have to decide whether to set it loose or not :-)

At last I have the Thunt in my Mini Cooper collection. There is a yellow version of Mini Treasure Hunt but the price is way toooo high! I don't think I'll spend 107USD for a single 1:64 and just for a side collection. I'm going to have that for less...patience is a virtue ;)

Thank you for visiting. 'til next time :)
