thank you it was fun its not perfect by any means but it was truely my first car modle and my first paint job in many years like i said i painted the warhammer little army men for fun about 8 years ago and took many art classes in high school and what not but havent done anything then picked this up ....i did repaint the body like 3 or 4 times to get the fade the way i liked it it started out all purple and i didnt like it then went black and it was all too dark with no contrast so i pained it all purple and while the paint was wet i fadde the bottom following the body lines it was done with a simple rattle can thats it i dont have an air brush but im in the market for one its just i dont know what to buy and ive never used one so i dont want to spend 100 bucks and break it right away i wish i could try one out before i bought it and see if its something i could handle

thank you what did you use for the hollow end parts on the end of the solder?? i mean what diameter tubing -
its not that im being cheap its just i have no place to get the stuff right now i think im going to just order it online but may try this with the store bought trick to see if that will work for me but ive never use bmf so i think that getting it online and trying the real stuff first and then the store bought cheap foil after i get it down with the real stuff will help thank you for all the help
