My buddy's '41 Ford pickup
Belugawrx replied to Belugawrx's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Thanks 3rd times the charm they say, I tried the JAG paint ...too hot..stripped everything with Dot 3 and started over.. couldn't decide on the proper colour, so ...White Duplicolor primer to start, then after searching Crappy Tire for about 6 Months.. Hyundai frost blue is not available.. I looked in my Craft Smart stash and lo and behold.... Frost blue craftsmart #514144.. Thinned it 1 part paint , 5 parts tap water, 1/8th part Liquitex flow aid and shot it with 18 psi .5 needle ..4 light coats. when it dried it felt like 1000g sandpaper... so I deliberated on Future, or Alclad Aqua gloss clear or just hit it with Duplicolor acrylic enamel or acrylic lacquer.. I think its much closer to Jimmy's truck colour -

Lacquer thinner for airbrushing enamels?

Test it on something you don't care about first -
I purchased some Duplicolor Chrome spray for the first time yesterday, and tried it out... not bad π I sprayed Duplicolor gloss black first, then 2 coats of Chrome... (and apparently I didn't sand the surface first ..) Doh!! It seams very durable, after rubbing it with my thumb. You are right though, more of a high polish aluminium. WARNING...ALOT of material comes out of that nozzle, may think about decanting...

Cant wait to see how you make out Mike.. I started the 1:20 Fujimi 126 C2 awhile ago, with ALL the p/e and after market parts I could find ... WhooEee there goes the budget ...and I got the engine done and now it sits.... Moving to the Tamiya 1:12 312T for a break... Looking forward to your next update! Cheers

Desire Wilson's WR4
Belugawrx replied to Belugawrx's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Thanks to all who commented and liked ? I've had a hard time lately getting to the bench, at least I have the 1 completion for 2023..lol Desire Wilson is the only woman to ever win an F1 race. It was an ONLY UK format sponsored by Aurora (AFX slot cars), with only 10 other entrants in 1980, but she qualified 2nd, and took the podium with a win. Cheers, and happy building ! -
