MCM Regular (3/6)

  1. Hi Scott. The leather i have ist extremly difficult to get! it is only 0,2-0,6 mm (Metric) thin. Like paper and not cheap. But i think if a Modellkit kosts a many lot, than dont save with the Equipment who brings the real touch to my 1:8 scale Kits. If i see the nice after market pieces from Modell Motor Cars.....Oh my god! So awesome Parts for buy, and my wife is going to kill me if i can not resist....The Problem is when i ordering something from the USA, the shippment is very expensive and in Addition Comes Zoll (19%) in Germany. I Need to went to the Zoll (In Germany we call it so?) Office and pay. Its Stress.. It worth only if i order something beoutifull parts from there if the order is big. If it is a big order, its a very expensive order.... By the way, i try to make many thinks by my self scratch. But the parts from MMC are very nice......
  2. Uiii. I see the question with leather is not so easy. I think the idea with Olive oil is good! I test it on a Piece from my lether. And WOOOWWW! The Rolls SEATS ARE awesome!!! Looks so Fantastic!!! I have the Sedanca Rolls here. Thanks for your 1001 Tips! Niece to hear what the Pro's said.
  3. Hi friends. The first try from me to work with real lether on my Pochers. The back seat is okay. But the first front seat satisfied me not. I think it Looks not so, ähm, elegant? Can i let it so?......I considering to paint it in a tan yellow Color with Tamiya spray paint. What you thinking abaout it?
  4. No Prob. If you have no Problems with my perfect english, I (we) can serve.....
  5. Hi Fred. This Shelby (R.I.P. Caroll) is now in France available. A good friend of mine suplies me with the issues direct from France. Thats why I m a lucky and happy guy.
  6. Oh yes, you absolutly right. Alfas make a man ruin. In real and in 1:8..... But it is nice to drive and build. Okay, the blue F40 is okay , only a Little bit to......blue.
  7. Hi. For me ist to late. Now im a collector who like to build. But im not a collector who likes to make mony with it! My heart is with evry kit i have. will build my modells by my self if the time is right! I like it if i go to my storage and i can see what i have. Not "This car i must build, then i have no another one in my storage". You now what i mean? Your Spider is realy nice! Thumbs up for it! My Ferraris are ever Italien red. I dont know why, maybe i think a Ferrari MUST be red by my own. This is the only Color for a classic italian sports car for me. Hey guys. I only can Response: Sorry for my poor english. I hope if im here some times i can learn and have some practise. For my builds AND for my english..... Alex from ass cold Bavaria
  8. Uhhhh. Very nice kit, The Spider AND the Monza. This Spider is the one i really like to get. But i prefer the "Scuderia Ferrari" one. You can see it in my Avatar and nickname: Alfa Romeo is my Company!
  9. Ohhh. The Devil lime green Testa from my friend Yoda......Next time i go in my Basement i took some pics from my Testa. Promised! But this car is not finished. I have some many transkits and new Aluminium wheels for this Ferrari. I strippt the "Paint" of and paint it new in Italien red. he is currently not assembled and wait for build. I have so many Projects in 1:8 here......So much to do and so less time :-( If somebody wont i can take some pics from my "Basement storage" to statisfy some curiosity you may have ???
  10. Very nice car, awesome build. Respect!
  11. WOW Scott! There are SO MANY NICE CARS! I love it!!! Thats the kind of classic cars i prefer and love! And Scott, your nickname is very cool!
  12. Good news for me: My real lether has arrived. Nice, nice. lovley thin shape. Now i can begin the "Pull Over" from the Seats....I build my modells not in alphabetical order. I build what bring for me some pleasure. I will try to answer any question you have. No Problem. But im by my self no Profi. Got many things to learn. Regards from Bavaria, Alex
  13. Good morning other side of world. The Buggati i have was like a virgin. Only the engin was built and some parts from the Dashboard. Thats it. Nothing more. Im a lucky guy than usualy the Bugatti is very,very expensive (In german ebay for 2500,- Euro!!! CRAZY WORLD!), but i got him very cheap for best conditions ;-) The only Company i know is in Germany Tremonia who made own transkits. And they have only the cylinder-covers and a mesh for the grill as eatched parts. Modell Motor Cars is known. Michel j. Habich......well i see we are like Stalkers ;-) Nice to see you here my friend!
  14. Yes of corse. Thanx for this Point. The foil and the gloss, the gloss is from good old Tamyia, had no trouble together. I polish it a little bit and ready. Usually im also test it before i work with this componends.
