Cool build so far! The tape and rivet tool is a funky idea, looks great! -
This kit is fighting me! I've been adding the detials - like the mesh covering the holes (vents) and the clear parts - Elmers doesn't quite hold, as the parts are not fitting well / twisted. So it's been glued, striped & reglued with Loctite Super glue (the runny stuff) and its been slow work. then for final assembly, there was aclash between the rear view window and the interior tub. so had to use some kitchen tissue for masking & cut off the bits from both sides, then blow out the debris & clean the clear bits (for the 3rd time) with a plastic clean & shine. This has probably been the worst engineered kit i've ever built, I'll be glad to see the back of it... Hopefully within a week this'll be done...

What did you see on the road today?
Funkychiken replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Absolutely shocked to see this on the road in real life! In my village too - Danbury, Essex, UK... This is the Gordon Murray T.50 (Tamiya recently released a kit of it) Risked my life getting a shot of it in my rear view I had to google how much its worth when I got home - £2.8Million GBP including taxes... And the plates are "Fan" - quite apt.... -

Funkychiken replied to Rich Chernosky's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Its a lovely build, loads of detail, probably why they cost so much, but it is an expensive kit! -

Super cool audis! I think clear-coating over the decals keeps them secure over the long term... -

Airfix Jaguar XKR GT3 1:32
Funkychiken replied to Funkychiken's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
And I'm calling this one done! Was a fun little build, but I did mess up the clear coat quite badly... live & learn! -
Masked inside & out for window trim & front air intakes I made the masks for the front intakes with some exposure to the front face & wiped off the excess with Thinner. Not long left now...

Funkychiken replied to Funkychiken's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
Was going to try to sand and polish this kit, but its too small with too many details, so I'll leave it as is. Started to do the final touches - masked and sprayed the window trim, and installing soe mesh for the front grille, unfortunately this PE mesh bends easily and then doesn't look great when reflecting lights - but its better than the decal provided with the kit. -
Looks like a cool kit! I'll follow along!

Seriously impressive build from a monogram kit! Love all the details
