  1. Looks great. I always lay down Future under tire decals I started using Tamiya' TS-80 Flat Clear airbrushed. It seems to me dullcote rubs of with to much handling.
  2. Very cool. I did not know about that track. Everybody's usually trying to set records at Nurburgring.
  3. He maybe waiting for a shipment from Japan. Never worry you will always get what you order. Mark is top notch.
  4. The 935 looks great. Better than the Tamiya 1/20 th version.
  5. What version of the 935 are they working on?
  6. This track may not be important to you but it has become the most important track in the world to auto manufactures including US companies. This record is newer than the one in Road and Track. BTW the track is Nurburgring
  7. This record still stands to this day " On May 28, 1983, a lucky confluence of events allowed for one of the greatest driving performances we'll ever see. Stefan Bellof, a 25-year-old racer from Germany, drove a Porsche 956 around the Nürburgring Nordschliefe in 6:11.13, a record that stands to this day, and one that doesn't look like it'll ever be topped. " Porsche is taking their retired Porsche 919 LMP1 that has had some of the WEC rule restrictions taken off of it to Nurburgring next month. It just set the lap record at SPA and was1 second faster than Lewis Hamilton's F1 pole time there last year. If it runs there probably break the record. here is video of Bellof's record lap Nurburgring Lap Record
  8. Porsche sets new record at the Nurburgring with the GT3 RS. Poetry in motion Porsche Record
  9. You might try one of these ultraviolet nail polish dryers Nail dryer
  10. That looks fantastic. Can't wait to get one.
  11. 1937 Mercedes truck http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1152790
  12. Tamiya TS-29 sg black decanted and airbrushed.
  13. If you have a local Tru Value hardware store you can have it shipped to store for pickup. There is no charge for shipping that way.
  14. Did you check AC Moore. I got the Aspire there with a 50% off coupon. I love it. It is the quietest compressor I have had. I have noticed a difference with a tank when running the airbrush wide open for long period. A compressor without a tank is OK but one with a tank is better.
  15. Tamiya kits can be very tight fitting and cause problems. Especially tail lights and headlights. I usually sand them down a bit. It really is experience that helps.
  16. Thanks for that explanation Bob, I suspected it was a two step process.. I did have this kit once. I did manage to cut the windows out with some tedious and time consuming work with the back side of an Exacto #11. The project stalled because of the boring paint scheme and I could not figure out how to make the headlight buckets.
  17. That's a shame. I never mask over decals because I just don't expect them to stick. They might stay down if you have enough (allot) clear over them. That is one of the reasons I use Future. I mask and do all trimming before any decals go on. I wipe Future on only where I want it.
  18. This is the new GT3 Corvette that raced yesterday in the Pirelli World Challenge. I like it better then the IMSA version. Model please.
  19. Thats why I never bought any of Tamiya's Tamtech based kits. The windows are cast with the colored styrene. I would love to know the process to do that.
  20. Tamiya's ne panel line paints flow really well and look nice. They are enamel based and cleanup with mineral spirits.

    Ferrari FXX-K

    Absolutely fantastic model. Well done!
  22. Looking good! What green does the instructions call out for the body? TS43 I am guessing
  23. May I add when putting decals over panel lines (especially hood and doors) cut them. I have seen a few good models that in the real world would make it hard to open the door. Use a brand new razor or #11 to cut then use a small (10/0) and a strong solvent to put it down in the line.
  24. This is surprising. Marc has always my go to first for new kits. He is one of the best businesses I have ever dealt with. He has always been good to get back to you. One time in about 15 minutes. I am sure you will get it straightened out.
