they are from a wheelset, possibly from a full kit or maybe an mcsdesign off road set. i'll be printing later so i'll look through my files -
55 and/or 56 printed Buicks?

i've seen 54s but nothing between then and 64 -
youtube is paid by clicks, their entire business model is based on our clicks so of course they will use titles to entice us. views means money. but you can also look through the forum and see many members use clickbait titles on their posts (and theres nothing really wrong with that). if its the choice between "old man builds model car" or "old man builds model car, you wont believe the transformation" the latter will get more views because humans are interested in stuff, and the second title teases something extra. As for content creator vids dronning on and on, its the same on ordinary tv. all those chat shows are doing the exact same thing, filling nothing with something so somebody buys an advert

1/12 Lancia Fulvia teaser from Italeri?
stitchdup replied to The Creative Explorer's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
personally i like the escorts. the c1 versions will be going in my stash too, but they need to do a chassis too since they replaced everything else in the kit -
1/1 reference

i've only been able to get hobby sprays for about a year so it all fits

Why dont resin casters add colour to the release agents? it would save a lot of cursing

i'll just post them, they fit the kit tyres and a stamp is cheap

want some pirelli rims to match the paint? i've got an extra set

backwards drag racing could be fun to watch
-
the body fit is tight on the mk1 kits so be carful with mock ups, but its a great kit. I have lots of plans for mine

I think you just solved the problem i'm having with their tape. I'm more used to auto paints so when i'm doing a multiple colour paint job i'm masking for the next colour in 30 mins. That could very well be why i'm having problems with the tape
-
yes, i havent had any good tamiya tape in over a year. it used to be good
-
i've been finding craters in my paint where tamiya tape has been. it doesn't matter what type of paint i use, it always leaves my paint looking like a toppographic map

I got to speak to the owner of a green mk3 golf estate (wagon) yesterday and might have picked up a small paint job. The owner managed to scrape the rear bumper but luckily he didn't damage the plastic at all, only removed the paint. I mentioned building models and having a tin of the correct dragon green already so he took my number. Its an easy fix, flat back the remaining paint, couple shots of filler primer, normal primer paint clear and polish. its only on the top edge of the bumper so i only have to blend one end as the rest has edges and blending is simpler on a round corner. Only real issue is i might be doing the work at the side of a road but it wouldn't be the first time

love makes people act strangely, theres nothing rational about it. if he did it right he'd stick em on ebay for 500 each then he's trying to sell them, honest

I'd stick with tamiya primer. you shouldn't need a coloured base under the tamiya paints as they cover well. i would not use tamiya masking tape though and instead use a brand with stainblock such as frog or my current fav, a very thin purple crepe type masking tape. its 2" wide and how tamiya used to be but unfortunatelly it has no branding. i got it at a house paint store

look near the embroidery and sewing stuff. or sometimes in the leatherworking section. some of the smaller ones come already fitted into a jewell ytpe fitting but they easily pop off and leave clean stones.

in deepest darkest Peru there was once a bear named Paddington, who for some reason had an upper class English accent
