  1. Heres my crown jewells 1, vw hebmuller resin trans kit 2, belkits mk1 escort 3, aoshima datsun cedric lowrider
  2. try fred aldous, thats where i get my bmf
  3. I ordered a takeaway from one of the local chinese restarauns tonight. I said to make it up to 20 quid with sweets meaning bars of chocolate etc. Instead I got a carrier bag of penny sweets. I guess there was a miscommunication somewhere but I feel sorry for the person that had to count them out
  4. That kid done well, and I'm sure opened a few eyesI'm looking forward to the americas list. It would be nice to see racers from the rest of the world take them on but I guess that wont be happening any time soon..
  5. Sweet project, I recently got the foose truck to the samething to the stepside
  6. If you look in the nail art section of amazon theres chrome tape available. It comes in various chrome colours and is dirt cheap
  7. The amt kit is still available, I think the most recent version has a two tone grey one on the box
  8. Are you guys a week behind? I've just watched the final but I wont give any spoilers
  9. The only one we didn't know about was the big lotus, all the rest were announced within the last couple of years at shizuka. I know the audi has been on my radar for a while now
  10. It might have put up a fight but you got a last round KO. The reflections in the paint really show how nice it is
  11. I'm not sure if its specificly for fujimi kits (it might be tamiya) but there are conversions from c1 and hobby desgn to build an rwb porsche and scale production may have some parts to build a singer porscheas well. Uscp do some engine parts (exhaust and air cleaners also
  12. I wouldn't use cooking oil, its dries up into a sticky mess (former chef speaking from experience)
  13. The yellow convertible ran hot rod drag week a few years ago. Apparently it surprised a few big names before it broke
  14. no its in mph, and as far as i know ts still a full quarter mile too
  15. I hope so mate
  16. More progress
  17. Would Billy Gibbons count? not sure if he builds/built models but his cars have been kitted
  18. Remember to watch theitems you are interested in, I've been given some good offers from the sellers occaisonaly
  19. The virus might have changed some things for the better as far as the hobby is concerned. I've noticed there seems to be a lot more people building model cars now, and many seem to be younger than the core group (by which I mean us that frequent the forums) than there was even a couple of years ago. If they stick with the hobby hopefully the plastic kit makers will give us even more goodies as they see their market growing.
  20. I wish my first paint jobs turned out that well
  21. I'm not sure I understand you my friend, I know the show but its just going over my head and I'm a bit taller than Peter Falk was
  22. Nice work, the weathering is very convincing but the wood is outstanding
  23. Cool project TJ, I did the same to one a few years back and the hood was probably the hardest part to mod. I found it worked best for me to cut the back edge off before sectioning the rest to retain the shape. I only have this one pic of the cuts but it might help you
  24. I mainly use canopy glue. I use white glue sometimes too if the fit is tight
