André Siqueira Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 Dear friends, Thanks for the receipt of all as a new member of the forum. I hope I can always contribute something to the growth of the hobby. From what I could see this forum and found it very interesting, is the participation of all, asking questions and answering questions about the techniques used. I find it very important not only for the topic to be nice to read but also to help those who are starting. Please continue this way, it is gratifying to know that I'm helping someone. Thanks Mike, Dave, Bill, Harry and Modlbldr - Thanks for the compliments and regards. Soon new updates. Romell - To grow we need to be criticized. Only then will we know if we are on the right or wrong. Glad you're liking it and soon I will post updates, ok? Boss - And that, my friend! Glad to be here participating with you too. Look at the guy saying that I'm super modeler. Can not you see yourself not .. :) Thanks for the compliments. As for the Camaro, so have a little time shooting the pictures and made for staff to see. Thanks Brow Niko - Thanks for the compliments. I try the best, make parts as real as possible. Researching long before starting a project, so that is not at risk of giving something wrong. Glad you're enjoying it. Brief updates. Len and Jody - Thanks for the compliments. As for the chassis, we used a scrap of camaro LAPD Revell. Half the structure was rebuilt with styrene, and styrene also redone floor and some pieces of sheet aluminum. The change that had to do was the distance between the car. The Camaro from Revell is the distance between minor and had to stretch to get the wheels centered on the body. I did it in front of the chassis, so that helped me also to position the engine without having to cut the body where would the carbs. In an upcoming update will make appointments to make it clear what was done. Currently it is only shortly and post the updates, okay? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmikevee Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Hey Andre, Just wanted to let you know how much I am enjoying this topic, your work is very detailed, and we are all enjoying this model. I am looking forward to more information about this work in progress, tips on the frame and chassis, aluminum parts and your painting technique would be great, as you said sharing is good for us and fun for all, learning new things is appreciated. Can't wait to see more, and thank you for posting! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
