for going the extra mile!

Luciano13 · 02-05-2014, 06:04 PM

^^^ in all fairness Mike.....
Unless i get installed results....
That extra mile may turn to 7 or 100 miles

Nevertheless. I feel good about that extra mile. My Z
May get destroyed making the molds.... Hopefully the gel coat with wax, and mold release cleaner works

And don't worry Zefualter..... I knew you would reply before Alcheng

I also figured it would be 100 miles, but I had to use the "saying"

Awesome!!!!

LMBmikeZ · 02-09-2014, 01:33 PM

SWEEEEET!

Are you starting with clay? This is pretty exciting!

Luciano13 · 02-12-2014, 08:26 AM

Im not sure if im going with clay or hard foam...
Right now im staring at it coming up with animated concepts... By the weekend i should have the image i want and start the forming.
Fingers crossed

I will be placing vinyl wrap over the bumper, just in case the first one doesn't work out, or i don't like it. Easier to clean off & start over.

LMBmikeZ · 02-15-2014, 04:17 PM

I am excited to see what is to come

Luciano13 · 02-15-2014, 05:15 PM

laser cut. first time using it..... not 100% straight, but 99.9213%
I did post a pic of the bumper but then deleted it.....
I think final show is more appropriate

It looks awesome so far
