model1:25th scale Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Hi all I am going to be working on the Decepticon motor master model kit, I will be using the 1980's version, Picture will be up soon of the Revell Kenworth K-100 Aerodyne Cabover that I will be using, I am waiting on the trailer from ebay. I will be using a nascar hauler trailer model kit, since I am having bad luck find the amt beaded trailer. anyways thanks for stopping by and having a look p.s I will be trying to add LED light on this kit as well, looking into a micro drill for the 1:25 scale model kit. I have added a few picture of the transformer from the 1980's, so you can see what the MotorMaster looked like from the 1980's transformers, and once again thank you for stopping in and having a look, again i know it's been a few years since I have posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
model1:25th scale Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 (edited) The last two pictures I will be using the purple because it was in the 1980's where Optimus Prime and MotorMaster played chicken and MotorMaster was purple and black ( and I will not paint over the chrome on the side of the Cab,) Edited March 5, 2018 by model1:25th scale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jantrix Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 1 hour ago, model1:25th scale said: I get that you are trying to save time, spraying everything on the sprue, but that doesn't really let you clean up the parts. See the little circles on all those parts? Those are ejector pin marks left over from the injection molding process. Ejector pins push the sprue from the mold as it's cooling. The faster the machine, the worse the marks as the plastic is still soft. Those should be sanded smooth as well as any other mold lines on the parts for the best possible fit and appearance.

model1:25th scale Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) OK i am waiting on more paint for this kit build and I thought I will share with you all my next idea to make this complete.. Since I have a Nascar trailer for this model build. If you look at the picture you will see a black car with 2 front ends, So fo this I bought two Revell 1/24 Lamborghini Countach LP500S Plastic Model Kit, I will cut these two cars in half and glued the two front ends together to make this, I am also trying to figure out how to add the (Fiber optic's) or (led) (halogen) to this, I have 4 double A battery terminals and 1 C-Battery terminal. any ideas thank you for viewing and posting your comments. Sorry for the CAPS. Edited March 16, 2018 by model1:25th scale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
