Putty Modelling

when you make a putty body kit do you make it on the car or do you make it seperate then stick it on with super glue.

yeah i was supposed to get putty and paint yesterday but the LHS ran out when i got there

It depends on the part...if you want to make something really flush with the body, like a fender, then you might want to make it on the body and then sand it smooth so it has no seam. If you want to add something like a rear wing, then you could make it separate and then glue it on.

id make it on the body too...
make sure u use FINE GRAIN sand paper if u plan to sand by hand...Testors makes those, you should find it at a LHS

also from what ive experienced, do not put putty on painted parts...it will eat the paint,and wont stick to your body...
so sand down as much of the area u are puttying, dont worry about the paint thats IN the body lines though, no biggie
best to use a clear body though
