Pretty cool bug, I'm sure loads of us had a similar one at some time

You get special cleaners for satin and flat finishes. I dont know how they would work on models but most detailing product manufacturers will probably have them. Maybe start on a bmw or hot rodclub site as they use more satin finish so their owners might be able to help

I think you may have mixed me up with someone else mate, this was started on monday/tuesday night

I think the offers all get put to the seller, its up to them to accept it or not. I didn't realise also if you have something in youur watch list, the seller gets told its there and can offer you it cheaper. I got the amt payhauler for a really good price and a fewwheels through getting offers at the right time

the pirelli edition has parts for both, I'm not sure about the silver one or the cab

I'm the target demographic, but it was probably cars like the vw polo and small cars like that. Ronal made a limited run of them withing the last 10 years too so there are fans out there.

it depends on a lot of factors mate, it has much less side to side rolling than a single hull and out route is across the pentaland firth which is where the atlantic and north sea meet so its pretty rough. If the ballast is set right though you would find it a lot smoother as its 2 thinnner hulls instead of one fat one cutting through the water. Our new boat has less than 1 metre of draught when fully loaded too so we can use shallower water than single hulls, the equivelent single hull would be more than double. We use a lot less fuel too but thats can be down to engine choice as well as the hull. The taxi is the revell one but a new plan is forming there too so it wont look like this much longer

Did you mention ze war? (john cleesefaulty towers reference)

Both of your wheel choices look good to me though I prefer the top set. I reccomend you get the molotowe chrome pensso you wont have to worry about the chrome process either, really easy to use and great finish if you use it over a smooth surface. There are threads on here about them with more information. All I would say about the molotowe is to use it as late as possible as it doesn't like being handled and it doesn't touch up well until its had a few days to completely dry.

Found out last night after collapsing on the way to work, while on the bus and weeks of worrying that i dont have cancer. My lungs are wrecked but its not cancer. wear a good mask when painting and doing filler folks, its worth it

Please keep going, this is great to watch coming together. Seeing the different techniques you use is great, and I'm not ashamed to admit I plan to steal them for my own stuff

Just a small ferry, 3500 tons and it can take 9 semis and 50 or 60 cars. I'm on the old boat just now but will be back on the brand new one once this one is sorted out. Both are catermarans though

Yup and this time I really dont mind, if I'd known this was going to happen I'd have bought it 2 years ago

Caved in and bought a welly vw type 2 bus as I'd given up on ever seeing a plastic kit of it, 2 days later guess what revell announced? The one i got is red but will be getting redone as my dads old one in dark blue and white with some parts from the t3 camper to approximate the conversion. Luckily the welly is lhd so that saves me a job. Dads one had quite an interesting life having been bought in germany new and driven back to canada the long way. The only bit of its history I have yet to find out is how it ended up for sale in a newspaper on a small scottish island

Slammed a revell london taxi and started a chop. Got as far as cutting the roof off when the weather took a turn for the worse and everything started sliding about so i packed it away again. Hope to finish the chop tonight and decide what else to do, maybe a section to go with the chop as the interior is lower than the body. Of course if the boats jumping again none of that will happen, quite enjoying getting paid to build models (I'm nightwatch on a boat and theres no real work to do)

Very nice work, Thats exactly what i meant too, I should have specified 1/24 though. The reason I want one is my great grandfather was on one during ww1 .

Cool, these were fun to watch on tv. I built the jager version before I quit in the late 90s. All thats left now is the body though and some random bits so if your missing any parts or need spares I might be able to help

Man you guys are flying, I've only managed to sort out my parts.

I'd like to see a ww1 era rolls royce, but as one of the truck/tank conversions used in the desert. I'd also like to see an early farm tractor like an allis chalmers or something similar with the spoked wheels and knobbly metal rims. I just like the way they look so mmechanical compared to even the 30s tractors

I've used the c1 powder and it works quite well. I haven't managed to get the chrome effect they show on their website but I haven't tried it over many colours yet. Over black it gives a nice steel colour. I also read on the c1 site that the op's product is toxic while c1 is non toxic, but I dont know how true that is but since their fine powders I'd guess neither is very good for you. The c1 kit comes with masks, cloths and applicators

sweet, thats a beautiful colour

meng did gaadyears on the f350

Started a polar lights harley quinn bug at 8pm and other than the rear lights and front indicators it was finished at 2am and yes the paint is still sticky. I'll do the trim with silver sharpie and get the lights painted tonight. And since I did it at work I got paid to do it. Now I need to choose something to take for tonight and I'm thinking to take both of the revell tractors and do some more weathered stuff

very nice,

I kinda like the delorean, it might not have been the best car but the story makes it a very interesting one. And like everything else they look better on the ground. Besides just the fact delorean may have conned margaret thatcher makes it just that much better imo. The last lotus i liked was the carlton until a friend took me a run in his elise but I couldn't live with one of them due to the high sills
