  1. Nice work Tom, this kit builds up really well and I think its one of the best bug kits
  2. Turns out i bought the wrong kit, I was sure i ordered the k3 but after checking its the k2. Ah well, just an excuse to get the right one
  3. Nice work mate, I see your drivers door isn't warped like mine is on the rear corner
  4. Gonna have to add one of these to the stash,
  5. Very cool, I like the engine mods too, they're a nice way to update these cars and everyone wants a red top 16v
  6. and those three fit that description perfectly, last years branson begged for a bailout for his airline while pumping cash into his space program and actively lobbied the government to open up air travel to countries that were being innundated with the virus, bezos staff get no time for bathroom breaks and he actively avoids paying taxes, musk told his staff at tesla if they didn't come to work during a mandated lockdown they would be fired yet still people only see wealth as giving them the right to do this. We all pay our share of taxes, yet its us that have to bail out them when things are tight. Remember these are the same people that tell us we should save for a rainy day on minimum wages but always get to the top of the list for govenment handouts. But their billionaires so they get a pass for being terrible examples of humans
  7. I keep my opened ones in the fridge as heat affects them too, and once the molotowe has been opened, the air that gets in causes the reaction in the chrome. It can still be used in the revell acrylic paint though as a mixer to get metallic colours. For example those small pots of aluminium revell give you in the starter sets, when they get down to half full i top them up with old molotowe and I have polished aluminum colour, or can be used to give a dirty look to already cleared chrome. Sure its not chrome anymore but it can still be used for other stuff
  8. Does anyone know where I can find the above decals. I recently got the nunu kit and after watching the story about the car on autobiography I'd like to build it. The story about the car made it a lot more interesting than just a race car would be
  9. Do you know anyone you could borrow a goat from? they'll get rid of it in no time but any other plants will be eaten too
  10. Theres a rusty spot on my cooker top thats been annoying me, so this morning i bought a tin of white stove enamel. I got it all treated with some rust eater we use on the boat, and the paint said to use with out primer. It laid down nice and smooth but now 2 hours after painting it, its turning pink!! So now to fix it I'm going to have to get someone to remove the top for me so I can paint the whole top. Interetingly though, the paint on my hands has stayed white
  11. not even trying to hide what type of contest it really is, lol
  12. Its not really a space race, just a load of tax dodgers having a apendage waving contest.
  13. you can find him on the trak forum
  14. The latest version of the vw split window van is out now in europe. Its just the recent camper van without the camper bits
  15. I'm sure some of you follow Kyzyl Saleem on various media so thought you might be interested to see one done for real. This has a mid mounted vr6
  16. how long did you have to wait for your parts to ship? I placed an order about a week ago and i've heard nothing since
  17. Ed Fluck does a lot of traditional style parts and bodies. Theres a thread on here with his contact ( ) details and his parts are very nice For more modern type parts try iceman collections on ebay, he has engines, chassis and suspension parts
  18. Very cool, it suits the slamm job
  19. Thats pretty wild, looking forward to seeing it built
  20. Very slick looking build, I'll be using it for reference when i get to mine
  21. recent arrivals, I've had the audi on pre order for months so am happy its now here. I'll be building it as the road car version probably. I've got a heap of the tamiya bugs but this is my first of the recent revell bugs. The italeri bug is decent enough but the wheels look awful so I might strip them and paint them to use on a rod
  22. https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/diolexproduction?_trkparms=folent%3Adiolexproduction|folenttp%3A1&_trksid=p3542580.m47492.l74602
