Looks real handy

That trans axle assembly looks the part very convincingly.

That scratch on your van should just buff out...:p: :p::p:

OOOOOO fancy

Another one for a friend of mine.

But you have a BV 222 to finish first.:pilot :pilot:pilot

I have the 934 Jagermeister in the same scale. Quite the time consuming build. Like you, Paddy, I am looking to do something different. I doubt I will be painting that shade of orange so I will be looking to a definitive color to paint mine. Watching with interest.

Sad news indeed. I remember well the time Paul S and I went to visit. A man full of inspiration.

I have been quietly building at a slow pace of late. There's no particular reason just that I have been enjoying these curbside kits. I have also been learning techniques involving Mr super clear lacquer and No-Name 2K clear coats. I used MRP Ford Liquid gray for the base coat and 2K clear top...

I would like to take the time to invite anyone who is within the area to head out to Bixby, Ok for our annual model show and contest. There will be plenty of raffle items and plenty of camaraderie . We will have Kinetic models there as one of the vendors and since all of our vendor tables are...

Those handles are the cats meow. I'll have to get some.

I have been trying for the past couple of weeks to get a smoother finish for my builds. Acrylics didn't work well for me because I just couldn't wait for them to cure. Lacquers, while tougher than acrylics again I just was too impatient for get the correct setting and learning not to rush the...

I have now some good positive ventilation and PPE in the hobby room and I have bought some Mr Paint 2K clear urethane. My quest is to find an adequate cleaner. I am not buying proprietary cleaner/reducer in the quart. I'm thinking if the stuff is available for much less cost I would be willing...

I ordered mine today from Scale Hobbyist.

I can say that this is as far as I want to go. Being this is the third or maybe fourth car that I built since 1977 I think I did better that I expected. I have learned a lot about acrylic finishes on car bodies and I think I am going to go the 2K route in the near future. I was masking some...

It is becoming an obsession. First a build for a friend, then two. then this. I have been battling trying to get the shade of red that I wanted. Nothing in lacquer and the closest was Aqueous from Gunze. I am letting the paint cure real well before gloss coating and a polishing. plenty big...

My heart felt condolences to you and your family, Paul.

Yep, there's Bob standing next to his favorite piece of equipment. A smoker.

I have several tubes of that stuff and it works real well. However, I have not used a rattle can on the Olds but use the acrylic metallic blue snd a clear coat. Ill do some rub and buff later. As it stands now I think I will be going for enamels for further car builds and stay with the acrylics...

I know but you have to have at least an acceptable base coat.
