wooden ship by corel
Nacho Z replied to Bronzekeg's topic in All The Rest: Motorcycles, Aviation, Military, Sci-Fi, Figures
Doggone, Ken, that is beautiful!! Forgive me for what may be a dumb question, what about the masts, sails, rigging, etc? Is that the next phase? Are you even doing that? I’m a huge admirer of these wooden ships. I’ll never build one but I absolutely love them. -
That is one very clean build. She looks great!

2024 24 hour build - Ridge Runner Pinto
Nacho Z replied to Nacho Z's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Thanks, Alex! Actually, I totally agree with you regarding letting the paint gas out. This was Tamiya spray paint which, relatively speaking, drys and cures a little faster than other sprays. I do my body work at the beginning of the 24 hour build and get it under paint as soon as possible. I let it sit for a bit and then pop it in a dehydrator for most of the rest of the 24 hours.- 21 replies

Very nice! I agree with you about it being nice to build a low stress, no hassle model every now and then.

I know of the trick but never even thought of it. It is not too late to try that. I’ll have to think about that one.

Ferrari F 2003 GA
Nacho Z replied to Chris Smith's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
Woohoo!!! I’m living vicariously through you, Chris! Oh man, please post tons of WIP updates. I truly am excited about this one! -
Thank you, Atin and Dennis, excellent advice! I honestly was surprised at how flat that German Gray came out. I shouldn’t have been, it is an XF paint after all…lol. I guess I’m not use to using flat paints. I thought about shooting some satin clear on the interior bits, but by the time I thought of it I had already unmasked everything and just didn’t want to remask it all again. Simply put, I was lazy. On the other hand I don’t believe it is going to be visible on the completed model. I do appreciate your input and I thank you for it.

Thanks, Sonny! I am a big fan of Gravity Colors - Spain. I’m also a big fan of Tamiya’s LP lacquer line of paints. I have to admit to being a little lazy on this build. It is not meant to be a contest winner, therefore I’m not sweating a lot of the details.

2024 24 hour build - Ridge Runner Pinto
Nacho Z replied to Nacho Z's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
I thought that might be you! I definitely enjoyed your enthusiasm for that last round revival, but I think I knew deep down that TMM was near the end. Folks would join and flat out not participate. The site is still there, I checked it today, just no movement. Who knows, maybe someday it will take off again.- 21 replies

The very first response said it all; that thing is beyond coo! Well done!

Another Monday, another update. During assembly of the drivetrain and rear chassis, I realized that I had mounted the top of the rear bulkhead incorrectly. I had to break it loose and reposition it. Other than that, this kit is falling together as expected. I did make one small concession on the drivetrain. The red of the valve covers should be textured and flat red. I didn't have any texture paint nor did I want to mess with it. I painted them gloss red and was done with it.

Thanks, Tim! A slightly sad fact; if you are talking about TMM on ProBoards, I am the sole administrator of that forum. It just slowly died when the originator decided he didn't want to run it anymore. I did my best to keep it running but I guess it just ran its course. I think FB was the biggest reason for its demise. Thank you, David! Much appreciated, Larry- 21 replies
