  1. And speaking of chrome, ..just out of the booth with a new coat of Alclad
  2. Let the acrylics dry for some days, and any clear Dullcoat or otherwise should be fine.
  3. I've had good luck with the CraftSmart paints from Micheals. Mix it 1:4 paint to water (tap is fine) and add a couple drops of Liquitex Flow aid (also Micheals) let it dry a couple days before clearing..here I used Future
  4. Definitely looks proud of the air dam surface yep.
  5. Ok...so went ahead and gave it 2 light coats of Duplicolor sandable black primer,..waited 45 min and started laying down the Duplicolor Victory red, warmed in hot water. 2 light coats, 2 medium...Think we got a winner...the black took just enough brightness out of it. Happy Later
  6. Holy mackerel, that poor p/e sheet It's been a bit jerky this afternoon for sure...lol
  7. Cool looking car..I'm following Sure you'll make it a stunner John.
  8. Well done Grant ! Decals laid down nicely for you (2thumsup)
  9. I wish...no, not mine, but a fellow member here Art Laski..kudos are for him
  10. I cut off the mounting pins on the body and ground about 2.5mm or 3/32" off the front edge of the horns of the bumper to get it, here.. Good enuf...any more and risk the body horns overhang the bumper
  11. I'm thinking so too.. maybe over a black primer...
  12. Looking good G One thing, the side window b pillar covers should be swapped side to side...should look like this
  13. Work done to the new seat..added .010 sheet to the right side and cover from Milliput white..bent up the rear support from .050 aluminium.. Now I need help with colour...what do you think..? Thanks for looking in.. Questions, comments, always welcome Later

  16. Hey Jordan, didn't realize that was your handy work...well done ! I just posted that to TJ down this page Thanks very much
  17. Nice job on the 442 Stuart! Really nice paint and detail Funny you should put Ontario plates on it, I knew a Stuart Cox here in St. Catharines Ontario, some 25 years ago (or more). Cheers
  18. Looking good Niko!! Just a little heads up..while doing Dan Gurney's '61, I found that the bottom line detail in front of the doors is actually a body line not the bottom of the chrome trim... I had to go back in and trim out that little sliver....just FYI
  19. That came out Great Steve ! It all gels nicely, and I can see the influences from Roger's works in it. Well done bud
  20. "And now for something completely different" from Pierre...Great start Really liking the body treatment
  21. Amazing!!!...I very much doubt that I could have the patience or dexterity to even attempt that. Well done, must be very satisfying
  22. I hear ya..had to file down the top arm of the water pump to get the alternator to fit square to the block..??? Don't even get me started on the instructions....cheezz I think it was a week and 2 days to finish this Tamiya kit..just a joy to build And thanks..I'll keep on keeping on... Cheers
