Another beauty KJ, you’ve been turning out some stunning builds, great work.

Junk yard dog, that’s a rare kit/find!

That was horrible and awesome at the same time , plus I’m a huge fan of the 66 396!

Rumor has it, it’ll be back......

Looks great! Love your garage scene too.

There is a topic on this in kit reviews

Not sure why

Obviously, it’s a side dump?

I hear ya, but, you’re masking anyway , so do darker lacquer color, mask, coat of light color primer , then your light color enamel, clear with enamel, and done. I get the light/dark issue, but to get the colors we want, sometimes we gotta go the extra mile to pull it off ( including some trips to the pond, been there, done it).

Why not do the lacquer first ? When doing big rig motors I use enamel paint and then spray lacquer dull coat on it, had never seemed to cause an issue, but then again it’s not a part that I want looking shiny like a body .

It happens, I have atleast 4 builds kicking around that have frustrated me and I need to fix stuff on, or just plain get after and finish. It’s art , so your muse must kick in and guide you to the finish line . Set it aside, create something else, and eventually the thing that was killing you will materialize and fall into place like nothing. Hang in there, it happens to all of us.

Not much left to get that over the finish line.....

Great work so far, going to be another great addition to the garage.

Wow, that is horrible. Hopefully in time you can rebuild them.

That’s a great looking rig, the colors really grab ya.

Great build, this combo is on my to do list .........., someday, lol.

Those are just too cool! Love those trucks!

Absolutely fabulous!

Jerry got me going again with his KW post, so I popped a 352 cab in the paint booth, and came up with this. I was going to do one more color blue on it, but wanted to see if my mask job was good enough, I guess it’ll look ok the way it is?. The stripe is actually a very light blue.

I like it! I also love when I find cool stuff I forgot I had?

Nailed it!

Looking good! You got me going again, got a Pete 352 in the paint booth now....

Looking good Jeff, squirrels are doing a great job ! Luckily, my elves have returned and I have a cab in the paint booth....

As much as I like an actual magazine, it would seem to me , that in this particular case, maybe a digitized version might be the way to go to get back on track. Granted, not all subscribers are in the digital age, but, I would guess a little something is better than nothing. Just my thoughts, take them for what they are worth.

Interesting, I have two that have the TM, and two that don’t.
