That food is great, we'll done, I guess you like American classics...

Impressive build!

Great finish on this one! Did you have to use a multilayer polish kit for the clear coat?

Top painting skills there!

Absolutely sublime! Love the subject, and your build is spot on...

Not much progress, and not doing so well with the flocking either. I'm using Hiroboy beige & a generic PVA / White glue from HobbyCraft, watered down about 40% water, and it still ends up patchy. And me being an idiot I tried to glue the PE net to the bulk head with CA, which just stained the flocking.... As a test (after research) I am going to try some Enamel gloss paint - see if that is better than PVA... If not, I'll change my brand of PVA glue and see how it goes. but on the plus side, I added the PE discs to the brakes, they are brass, so were primed with Tamiya X11, they look much better than my feeble attempt to add a dark wash to the indents moulded into the plastic. The Main bit left now is the body shell. I've wanted to finish the BMW M5 first before I move onto it. It's getting a bit cold for spraying too...

And the final clear coat is down. 1 light coat and two heavy ones. Looks like it will need a polish, I don't think I'll be trying to sand it out. Would be good to finish one this year...

That is really inspiring! Great build...

Excellent build!

Great skills you've got there, nice build!

A great collection there! The colour really pops out on that red, what did you use?

Top quality builds you have there!

Looking Great so far...

Looking good! looks like a great kit...

It would be a shame to cover up that chassis & engine! looks great.

Looking forward to following this build, this is a dream car build for me...

Finally I meet someone with the same painting skills as me. I'm a much better paint stripper than I am a body air brush painter. I've certainly had all the issues you are having! Good luck with the build... I like the subject & it's coming along nicely

amazing recovery so far, looks like an old monogram kit.

Nice stacks and wheels!

So applying to a spoon is one thing, but on a body, an entirely different kettle of fish... I tried to coat the 1K over the body, using the same technique as I did with the spoon, and it was a bit patchy. Plus I had a bit of dust embedded. I tried to sand too soon, and ended up ruining the clear-coat. I tried to recover it, but it didn't work. SO I keyed the whole body again, and re-sprayed the body. a few shots of that to follow. Only need to clear coat again now... but it'd getting cold...

And this is how they came out. They'd have been better with a deeper wash, but it'll do...

Hi Curtis! I used thinned down Tamiya acrylic over Alclad II satin clear coat. What I did then, is wiped off as much as I could - using lacquer thinner, and re-sprayed a few light coats of beige/cream, and I'm not going to try to re-wash.

It's looking fantastic, what are you going to.clear coat with?

The video was mesmerising! You make it look so easy too.

Looks like a great kit...
