  1. Here is what I bought myself for Christmas. Have been wanting one since I saw them 2 years ago at a model show. Cant wait to get it here and hooked up.
  2. I will try diluting it. It actually ate the color off of one lage decal I tried to apply. Thanks for the help guys. Thats what I love about this hobby. If you have a problem someone is always willing to help you out.
  3. I'm building a couple Tamiya WRC cars. Starting applying decals using Micro Sol and it wants to eat the decal. Is there something else I can use? I used Micro Sol on my Slixx decals with no problems. Any and all help is appreciated.
  4. Starting the new year off with some building. Rest of the pics are here: http://s178.photobucket.com/albums/w256/JT...-SRL%20Contest/
  5. Picked these up last weekend.
  6. Cool looking Caddy.
  7. All detail paint is Tamiya paint. Going by what color they say to use in the instructions. The exhaust came in the kit.
  8. Doing this build for an online contest. A tribute to one of the greatest Rally drivers. Tamiya kit with Scale Motorsports photoetch parts.
  9. I finished up my Mom's Christmas present Sunday night. I redid all the chrome with BMF and did some detail painting. Not a show winner but it brought tears to my Moms eyes and thats what counts. Starting point
  10. Revell 70 Buick GSX from a friend. In laws got me a snap kit 57 Chevy and 79 Firebird. Paint brushes and a subscription to Super Rod Magazine. Plus before Christmas I bought myself several Tamiya kits on E-bay and LHS. Santa forgot my paint booth though.
  11. Nice start. Is the the Fujimi or the Tamiya kit?
  12. Gary Kulchocks 69 Caddy that won Best Beater at Toledo
  13. Here is what I'm building for the 24 HR build.
  14. Looking good Dave. I like those little details you add to a model.
  15. Thats looks great Tom. What color did you use?
  16. Good looking start. I like hat blue.
  17. Some members of the North Central WV Scale Modelers Club are doing a 24 Hour build. Would like to see more people accross the country join in with us. We will have updates on 2 photo sites. Gary Kulchock's- http://public.fotki.com/gkulchock/24-hour-build-2008/ Bobby Boggs- http://s178.photobucket.com/albums/w256/JT...20Hour%20Build/ So if you want to build along with us let me know. 2nd Annual 24 HOUR BUILD, Jan. 19 & 20, 2008 You know what a 24 hour build is! Start on your model at 12:00 noon on Saturday and finish it at 12:00 noon on Sunday. We're the 5 crazy guys that did this last January and we're back for more. Again, due to limited space, only the 5 modelers from the North Central West Virginia Scale Modelers who did this last year will be meeting at my place to do this again, but wait!!!! .... we have a second group from the club that will be meeting at the same time at another members house. As details on this group come available I'll let you know. The Builders and their cars: Gary Kulchock ..... building a Tamiya Alpine Renault A442B Turbo kit. Modifications will change this kit to the A442A #4 car as run in Lemans in 78. This will be accomplished by using the Studio 27 Decals . Eduard photo-etch seatbelts and other misc. details will enhance this build. Chip Wamsley ..... building the Renault A210, 1966 Le Mans car, model by Heller. It has a full engine with soft rubber wiring. I will probably use some bare metal foil around the windows and Model Car Garage gauges with Replicas and Miniatures wizard "O"s for bezels. The decals are a lot less complex than the BASF BMW M1 from last year! John Brolin ..... building a 1/24 Castrol Toyota Tom's Supra GT. Jeff Christopher ..... ? George Schmezer ..... ? The 2nd group will be having their build at the home of Bobby Boggs, "The Mad Modeller" http://s178.photobucket.com/albums/w256/JT...20Hour%20Build/ Bobby Boggs ..... Toyota Castrol Celica GT-Four, '93 Monte Carlo Rally Winner Builder? ..... Builder? ..... Rules, same as last year: Start with a new kit. 4 parts may be glued to the body ahead of time to get a head start on the body painting process. That's it. The use of all after market materials are allowed. So ....... watch this site starting Saturday Jan. 19, starting about 11:30 AM for pre-race photos. Photos will be added during the following 24+ hours to show the progress (or lack of progress) up untill the final results on Sunday. Please send in your comments during the build, (or whenever) to show your support of the build. If this goes well, we may just promote this as a national event. Who's up for it?
  18. Ajay I'm sure it will turn out great. You have a way of building those cars.
  19. Good start. I like the seat detail. What kit are you using?
  20. http://public.fotki.com/gkulchock/toledo-nnl-2007/ Page 5 has a good pic. Can almost make out the builders name.
  21. Any details on the build Dave? I like hearing what you modified or scratchbuilt.
