54% humidity can I paint my model
JerseeJerry55 replied to JerseeJerry55's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Hi let me clarify. I am shooting the final coat of primer on the left B pillar to make sure the flashing went bye bye, and the engine bay in flat black enamel. The body will get its paint next week -
So as I understand any model of the 1971-73 Mustangs aren't any good at all?

No actually liked the look of the 1971-73 Fastbacks. Real cool cars but 1967-70's just capture my eye more.

Uhh WOWWWWWW !!! -
Snake I checked and the color I like is on the car. Thanks as always for the heads up.

The amazing thing is that I listed American Muscle Cars but drive and have driven Hyundai's and Kia's the last 15+ years. Last American car I owned were a 1990 Chevy Cavalier and my wife had a 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan. Current ride is a 2015 Kia Optima and the wife a 2015 Kia Sportsge SUV. Will probably never own a Musclecar so have to resort to 1/25 versions.

Thanks just ordered the 1970 Boss 429 from HQ Hobbies. I have a definite off the beaten track color in mind. Also had a question about Model Master Lacquers. As good as Tamiya?

Any thoughts on the below picture? I found it on a site called Model Car Mountain. They have it for like $16.00 plus s&h. Has anyone ever purchased anything from them?

Thoughts on any of the following

Dave thanks. I just received the 1969 Baldwin Motion Camaro in the mail today. Looking forward to building it shortly after I finish my 1970 Buick GS. Thanks for the suggestions. -
Okay here comes a question that will be at this point well beyond my capabilities as a novice. But I gotta ask it anyway. If I wanted to let's say buy the Monogram (or is it Revell?) 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner. And I wanted to add the huge 440 6 pack Hood Scoop. How difficult is it to add one on? I assume there's no resin hood out there so I think I'd have to buy one and attach it to the hood. Putty and sand it to match. If anyone out there can help I'd certainly appreciate it. Thanks Jerry

Since I haven't built one in like forever and my friend and I discussed this car. What about 1968-1971 Chargers. I must have built 3 or 4 General Lee's back in the day. -
Hey all Good morning. Was curious what your favorite cars of all time are. Can be just one or could be a number of different ones. Mine are as follows: 1970 Buick GS/GS455 Stage 1 1968-1970.5 Camaro 1959 Impala 2 door (my Mom had one) 1968-1970 Roadrunner/GTX/70 Superbird 1970-1971 Cuda 1969 Super Bee 1967-1970 Mustang/Cougar 1970 Torino GT/Cobra/Cyclone (Cyclone Spoiler) 1968-1970 AMX I have listed some such as Cougar, Cyclone due to fact that they were in my mind more or less the same. Thanks for looking Jerry

One I did forget. Any suggestions positive OR beware on the Monogram (or Revell) 1970 or 1971 Cuda's? That one comes from the recesses of my slightly off-kilter mind. -

Thanks. Proper spelling is a pet peeve of mine -
It has finally arrived. Now I go to work.

Also have a quick question. What is the maximum % of humidity to shoot lacquer without having issues? Thanks Jerry -

Thanks. Did what I believe is the last bit of work on the pillar flashing. Did some sanding stick scuffing will shoot one more light coating of primer then shoot the engine compartment in flat black. After that I have an idea how to avoid taping off the engine compartment. Shoot the underside of the hood (after priming it) then after the paint dries I put the hood in place and paint the body. Thoughts? -
I was talking to a friend of mine over the weekend who wants to get back to car modeling again. He was asking about the assorted Muscle Cars kits out there. I told I'd ask on the boards some others thoughts. In doing some research we came across a few that piqued his interest: AMT 1969 Firebird I AMT31808 Revell 1968 Ram Air Firebird REV85-2342 Revell 1970 Torino GT REV85-4099 AMT 1969 Mustang Resto Rods I AMT38375 AMT 1/25 1966 Ford Fairlane GT/GTA | AMT31935 Monogram 1/24 1970 Plymouth Road Runner | MONO85-0892 AMT 1/25 '67 Shelby GT-350 | AMT38492 AMT 1/25 1969 Hurst Olds Cutlass | AMT703 As always any help is most appreciated. Thanks. Jerry

New member, first model in over 20 years. WIP
JerseeJerry55 replied to kincer's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Can't wait to see more of your progress. Do the Sharrpie's work really well? I know they're permanent on paper, but styrene or paint is my question? -
Thanks. That's an awesome job on the Mustang. ReallyUnfortunately this will have to wait since I just ordered the Revell 1969 Baldwin Motion Camaro. Mustang will most be next after I finish the 1970 Buick GSX and then the Camaro.
