Thanks James This is a trip back to my childhood car builds when we weren't allowed to play with knives & other modeling tools .... Like I said I always wanted to cut & add stuff to a model kit .... When I was in school my favorite thing was drawing cars esp. the lotus style formula 1's ..... I'm also a plane guy ships & the dark side are on the way with me .....

Well I got a large tube of MMD putty to go through ... So I decided to bring this to completion ... Plus I have a place to spray paint now ... Keep an eye peeled once the body looks good I'll be painting it ... claiming that OOB ribbon as my 1st one as I had planned ... Caution Old Newbie at work ...

:cheer: 's Gerry
 
You really should try some two part polyester filler (like Bondo or the like), dries faster and won't disappear or shrink like the solvent based stuff does. Sands easily and you can build up areas that need it. Just a thought.
 
Thanks Mike ... I've tried the Red spot putty or glazing compounds they have a little heat when currying ... as my What-if shows Here ...
