I was just about to say that same thing..cruise around your local art supply store..Michaels..Hobby Lobby..anywhere that sells paints and canvases.. You'll find lot's of cool stuff like Liquitex Matte Medium, Flow aid, water colours, chalks, dyes....all of these can be mixed into an acrylic thinner or water (use a drop of dish soap as a surfactant) and can't possibly hurt enamels or laquers. It is always good to coat your base colours with a flat or gloss clear, before you start any weathering. And as Bill said... 'But as always when using unfamiliar materials, TEST FIRST before committing to doing something on a model you care about. Good luck and have fun

Nice clean build, Always liked that livery Nice clear pics too...I gotta work on that Well done ? Cheers

Looking very good Pascal, Very clean lines on your masking ? Cheers

Just read through this thread, and man you guys are killing these boat combos.. Very nice work gentlemen ! Cheers

Absolutely beautiful Mark! Amazing amount of detail??

Thanks guys? I did a lot of research (many hours staring at pictures and following wires) on this car, and it just seemed proper to add the plumbing if was there...make it look as real as possible. What's next? We'll, I do have a Renault RE20, or maybe Niki's 312T, or Andretti's Lotus 78...hmmm decisions decisions..lol Take Care and have fun at the bench...Cheers

Thanks david, I've checked my stock of evergreen/plastruct, and it looks like I'm making a trip to Dundas Valley Hobbies to pick up something suitable..1.0mm flat stock is just a little too big and 0.4 round rod doesn't suit. Got the louvers off the hood and tailgate and the stake holes are filled..cleaning up all the part lines on the body and bed as well as... Cheers

Nice job Gary !

Great job on something so small !! As we get older I find it much easier to go bigger, you on the other hand...!?! Mind bottling Cheers Mark

Nice start on the Stude Kurt ?

Amazing work on the engine so far Charlie ??

It's looking good Pierre, shouldn't be too hard to drill and file those brake duct openings. Nice job on the cooler?

So sorry to hear that Jeff

The latest pic of ZigZag I keep the model room closed from her, but her undercoat hair will float for days.... Constant brushing and vacuuming, but I wouldn't trade this goof for anything❤️

I think we found a winner...? Thanks guys for the leads !

My apologies Mark, you are absolutely correct..I had completely forgotten that I picked up the snapper '57 for the rear wings and filed those wheels away for future use.

Beautiful work on those Bill, sadly no lathe here ...yet

This is what I am trying to replicate A little smaller and deeper

Nicely done Jim, I really like that livery and you did a great job with the decals ?

Nope, these came out of the Boyd Coddington '62 corvette kit

Looks good Rich, I've always loved that little go-cart?

Nice job on the 962 Tom ! I as well like the trackside photo?

I will check him out..thank you Bill

I am looking for some American racing wheels for my buddy's truck build.. I have these out of the Boyd Coddington '62 Corvette, but they scale out to about 20", and thats a bit too big (and they are skinny) Do these come in an existing kit in a smaller size, or are they available aftermarket? Any help is appreciated....Cheers

Looks like the decals laid down nicely for you Ray?
