I have some vintage Testor's paints.
Sky blue, copper, a couple of silver, sapphire blue, sea blue, black, green.
They all work nice.
I also have a big box of old Floquil paints. Man, I wish they hadn't cancelled Floquil. That was some good stuff.
It seems they also associate vans with health, so their ideas of vanning seem skewed
And I saw two nice builtups of a Tamiya Eunos roadster and the Honda Today on eBay about a month ago for ten bucks... I wish I had jumped on those.
I'm amazed myself that they actually have Z scale figures!
I should pick up a few because I've been thinking about making a bowling trophy, but I can see a lot of uses for them.
I'll have to get some clear yellow next time I get to the LHS.
I only was going to use clear orange because that's all I have. I do have some Tamiya clear smoke color.
Can anybody tell me how to turn clear headlights into yellow ones such as this?
Please, no smarta$$ responses. I was thinking some Tamiya clear orange paint mixed with a little yellow... Anybody have anything more definitive that would work, preferably something they've tested?
If you have a Dremel, you can chuck a piece of parts tree sprue in it and go at it with files or an X-Acto knife to make some.
I've done it to make shifter boots, CV boots, and steering parts, as well as 8-ball shifter knobs and plastic bottles.
