misterNNL Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Amazing attention to accurate detail on a master that requires every single part to be scratch built. I think there might also be a market for a resin cast model of a large luxury RV motorhome. I can see those being built into fancy tour busses like those used by rock bands or country and western groups. That would lead to a brand new market for custom decals for side sheet graphics.

Repstock Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) I got the top all polished out. I figured since I used the buildings for the reflection in the top, I might as well show what they look like. They have become kind of a catch-all. Because the top is layers of epoxy putty, primer, and paint (over plastic, of course), I'm not going to scribe it for fear of chunks breaking off. I have received another interior to do, so again, I have to stop working on this for a few weeks.

72 Charger Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) Fantastic work keep it up . I would love to do or see a Grayhound bus with the kicked up front glass. I believe it was called a Super Scenicruiser? Edited March 2, 2020 by 72 Charger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cargostar Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Don’t worry about Archer rivets coming off. Just put a couple light coats of primer or paint over top of them to seal them down. These are Archer on this sleeper casting. I just used a light coat of Tamiya primer to seal it before molding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooner or later I'll dive back in and finish the master. There's not that much more to do. If only I were retired.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I retired when I was 68 and in a couple of weeks that will have been 10 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
