My First Airbrush - Shopping list
gotnitro? replied to dreadpyrat's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Since your looking at the Iwata airbrush, hobby lobby sells a screw on moisture trap that attaches right on your brush, hobby lobby has them . Doing military theme most builders use either tamiya , testors , or AK paints lately. Most are acrylic that simple 91 percent alcohol will easily clean .the testors is enamel, use their cleaner the ab will last yrs. I just replaced my iwata hpcs after 10 yrs, with another cause I used Delstar thinner and it melted the seals -

KW aerodyne wrecker finished !!
gotnitro? replied to gotnitro?'s topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
The light bar was purchased from police cars.com, and painted w chrome, gloss black, and smoke . The mirrors were scratchbuilt and resin cast , the mounts are pins I bent and installed in drilled holes. I'm very satisfied with the results even though there's numerous changes I'd made now.. -
I'm calling the build finished , there's some thing hugely gratifying about finishing a build I've wantedto try for so long . just had to wait for my skills to improve before whacking plastic. Let's take a walk around the truck and show what I hope is a tribute to this amazing truck. That's about it! Any feedback welcome

Revell Kenworth K-100 Flat top
gotnitro? replied to Kenny900's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I built the kw wrecker using the kw cab, the interior tub will fit with the headlight section ( cab corners ) installed. It's tight. I angled up the rear by bunk then slowly pinch the interior sides around the step "humps" it'll click in place. I left off the grill so I had finger room . Looks like a fun project so far -

Thanks ! Now I can show the Texas bumper. . I buffed w fine steel wool then metal polish..ended up decent The lettering has been problematic, finding out gold rub on tranfers are very brittle and seem to refuse sticking to the finish.I tried 2 different sheets and same issue occurred. The white wasn't an issue. Tom B mentioned gold molotow pens so I'll use those -thanks tom Here's the truck as it sits tonite Any comments or criticism welcome -
Jim your ability to locate obscure items shocks me..that and the fact you found a resin toilet lol
