Quick GMC

I think I will do this one or a similar one in 1/12 as a model by itself. I have a GT350R engine printed in 1/12 that I will do next

Appreciate it, thankyou

The seatbelts are photoetch from Eduard. They usually make aircraft stuff, but I have used these quite a bit and they are great. It took a LOT of work to get this to fit. Resizing, 3 different chassis and front section mockups, etc. The file creator even modified the file for me, but it wasn't enough. Another member of the group build offered to help me out and redesigned the manifolds to hug the block, it's the only way it would have worked. So out of a 3 month build, 1 month was getting the stupid engine to fit. What I noticed on a couple of the TT setups is the manifolds hit the frame rail or control arms on lowered chassis setups, so it's tricky.

So far and I am going with Torred. I am limited now that I painted the wheels black and gold, so either red or some sort of blue. White would be good, but I need some color on this one.

I downloaded the files and printed them myself

Making some progress on this one. Dodge Demon with a twin turbo 440. 3D printed engine and interior parts, chassis, wheels and tires. Only thing from the kit is the body, interior tub and dash. I ordered a 3D printed grill as well. Model Master Metallizer for the turbos, Alclad for the rest. Probably my best engine to date.

Dan, any interest the Huayra kit with with Hobby Design detail set?

Finally, a review by someone who actually has used Alclad. I still use Alclad for almost all metal finishes, I will have to get some of this stuff to check out.

It's a shame, but a lot of people have offered suggestions and solutions for him for marketing or different avenues to show his product and he has shot down every single one of them. He doesn't want to make new molds, he doesn't want to pay for advertising, he doesn't want to maintain a website, he doesn't want to do this, he doesn't want to do that. Someone will suggest something and he just says "why would I do that, it's not worth it". He has a limited offering in a new world of 3D printing and despite having great products, he's got to adapt somehow. If he wants to stick to what he's doing and the way he is doing it, there is nothing wrong with that, but going on pages and guilt tripping people into buying his stuff is just not the way to do it. This is far from the first time. If your business can't survive because you aren't getting enough attention on Facebook, then that's on you.

Mike, I have a bunch of stuff still available here:

What's changed since you said this?

I use my airbrush booth as an extraction fan. They also have tents for printers that you can keep them contained in with a exhaust hose to the tent.

The exact size isn't an issue, I do a lot of fine tuning on the sizing and %, it's the angles I was worried about. I don't know how to use the other software to change the actual files.

Does anyone know with certainty if the 2 kits have the same proportions? I want to download a bunch of 1/12 scale files and scale them down to 1/25, but I wasn't sure if the hood and other tight fitting pieces would have the proper proportions.

He's been reliable for so long, I have been buying from him for close to 15 years, so something like this in recent months has to be something personal related. I hope he's able to do what he needs to get better. Sometimes people get in a slump and it's hard to keep going. Communication is key, but sometimes it's just hard to get up and put your pants on. hope everything gets resolved
