Thorrr 0 Posted July 6, 2009 Thought I'd better post what I have so far, since i'm crazy busy at work, and also fixing up the house to sell, so ther in not much time to customize.Pics of the Twin Mill III with the paint job done, hope I can still find time to detail the engine and do a wheel swap before the deadline.Thanks for looking.Thorrr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rayz-HWC 0 Posted July 10, 2009 kinda...bashed sideways! LOL seriously hard to do what you did without a air-brush...now trying to source for those small fine, thin nozzles you get when you bu them mosquito sprays, to try fit on the spray cans nozzle - that's the closests I can think of to control the concentration of paint like an air-brush ..

Thorrr 0 Posted July 12, 2009 The Twin Mill III is as finished as my time will allow... just too busy with other things Added some fuel injection hoses and did a wheel swap. I have said before that I am not really into HW originals, but I grew to like this casting while building it..... so much so that I went back to the shop and bought the other 4 they had on the rack Hope you like the pics Thanks for looking Thorrr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thorrr 0 Posted July 13, 2009 Thanks for all the compliments guys, I really appreciate it, but I'm sorry to say that.....it looks even better in real life......digital cameras are not good at reds, and a lot of shading disappears in the photos.
