Finally got around to finishing the custom Hot Wheels VW Transporter. I had to take a few days to step back and rethink what direction that I wanted to go with it. I’m still not convinced that this is what I had intended to accomplish when I started this custom, but in the end, I did complete a new custom, used new medium and created something original. That’s what I had intended to do from the beginning. It’s certainly not my favorite custom, but it was fun and I learned some things along the way. I hope that you enjoy the video, be sure to like and subscribe for future updates. The next custom is just around the corner.

This is probably one of the most ambitious customs that I’ve started and it has kicked my butt from step one! First my drill bit slipped off the pillar and I drilled through the base, I broke my drill bit off in the pillar when I was drilling it out to tap it, the first attempt at paint turned out horribly, so I decided to start over! Even from the beginning, I wasn’t sure what direction I was going to go with this one. I wanted to try to incorporate a new medium into this project so I decided to use poly styrene. After stepping away for a few days and giving it more thought, I’ve got a better idea of where I’m going with this one. The video below documents my failed first attempt. Part II will be available shortly and I think you’ll be pleasantly surprise at the outcome.
