Gerbs hydro dipping
Hi I've been learning how to do hydro dipping
I've a few pics the first chassis with the skulls was one of my first attempts I rushed it a little so it's a bit rough at the back but the wheels came out better http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...psdfc65f30.jpg http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps84db308a.jpg Next up is my chunk which I laid a red base coat which worked really well the wheels at the rear are clear carbon again over red and look really good but the front ones messed up again http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...psd76cc646.jpg http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps453f497b.jpg Now I realise it's not perfect but it's all practise practise practise What do you think any comments are welcome as well as tips if you have any :thumbsup: |
Dammmmm I love those wheels nice work:thumbsup:
|
Tried a spare transmitter and it came out really really good the I was stupid and didnt let it dry properly so when I sprayed the clear layer it reacted with the pattern so it messed up :( so I'll try again
Anyway here's a pic http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps085fec36.jpg |
Well I decided to do a spare shell I had laying around came out quite well with hardly any mishaps:woot:
http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...psc3f289d9.jpg And here it is on the car going to do the wheels and wing as a show piece as it will be over the top http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...psa3cab9ee.jpg |
Well here's transmitter mark two
White base coat with women camouflage looks a lot better however the base coat hasn't covered it te best however does look a lot better in life than the picture what do you think http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...psd4d8f45b.jpg This is a rubbish pic I'll update it ASAP And here's the back I'm happy with it still not going to do my ko yet more practise is needed http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...psd5f5fc3c.jpg |
Some carbon wheels to match the shell goes really well together
http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...pse96cc9a3.jpg |
Some more skull wheels but with white base and they look a lot better in white
http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps43973f15.jpg |
Well it's attempt three for a transmitter this one is red base with silver carbon and it's the best I've done looks really good
I wanted to do the wheel slightly different but still with red base which shines through when in the light http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7821b612.jpg http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1aefe865.jpg What do you think |
The transmitter will be up for sale so I can stock up on some supplies
I'm thinking of doing some more wheels maybe 1/10 and 1/8 does anyone think there would be a interest in these :thumbsup: |
Me
How much u gona charge for the wheels
|
How easy/hard is it to remove the stuff if you change your mind about it.
|
Once it's on it's on there only sanding it off or roughing it and re painting it is the only way I've found
As for price it depends on scale then add about 15 for service and postage but ATM I'm still learning :thumbsup: |
Thought I'd do my self a pit board for my micros not 100 percent perfect but looks smart just a good few clear coats left
Again my camera phone isn't the best but looks better in the flesh http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9aea08e3.jpg |
Something a bit different mudguards front one is black carbon and the rear one is silver carbon

Had a spare chassis lying around I now it's a shame to cover carbon fibre but I fancied a change
http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps4cb5eee5.jpg A full set of b4 wheels in blue skull flames don't get the full effect of the flames but still look good it's the water you can see on the wheels just letting them dry before clear coating http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1e510270.jpg Next up is a carbon fibre wing I wanted to try it out to see the results I think it looks really good http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps6d63f175.jpg What do you think |
|
This was a bit of a wired one to work out all the masking in and outside but I think it was worth it just got to clear coat it few little mishaps but not that noticeable once I've cut it

Well it's been a little while as I'd run out of stuff to do
I ended up with a spare gtb chassis http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps122a32f7.jpg What do you think |
Well project drift has begun just waiting till I get my belt from America :thumbdown:
http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9760a7a2.jpg |
Well as with most things in life spend more and you ll get a greatly improved product ,I bought some proper base coat and it's so much better finish and quality
Another gtb chassis http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/...ps197e14ca.jpg |
