the benefit of the forum over facebook or you tube is as a reference. i know i use it to look at other builds of kits i'm building, even if i'm building a completely different style. you can usually zoom in a pic but not a video and good luck finding anything twice on facebook. my facebook is nothing but archeology when i'm only in model groups so i only use it to message mum. if she would learn to carry her phone i'd never use it, lol

Monogram '39 Chevy coupe street rod, comments
stitchdup replied to fiatboy's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
its a kit that really should have a load of transkits available. it really wouldn't take much to get most of the period gm cars from them. most of the bodies and fenders can pass for each other so it would only take grilles and hoods to get pretty close -

Just a few AMT kits coming this year !!
stitchdup replied to Mr mopar's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
how are those? i want an ae86 for my collection but i dont want to do a anything over complicated as its just to fill a gap in my collection -
the worst bleed through i've had was the orange revell t2. with every coat of grey primer it got more and more peach and it took 2 coats of silver. usually just enough to cover does the job but it took a paintjob nearly. if i wasn't just using the tailgate it would have made a great early 90s cal looker colour

Cricut As A Modeling Tool
stitchdup replied to oldcarfan's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
the cosplay folks have thinner vinyl sheets. they are slightly flexible too so should work on corners. i dont use it myself but the rc guys all seem to use them -
What did you see on the road today?
stitchdup replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
you can see it attack the hill in the goodwood coverage, it sounds evil -
got a couple tins of tamiya light green pearl. possibly the easiest colour choice ever as it was the only colour they had 2 off and 1 isn't enough for the golf. of course i got home to find i already had a full tin and a half tin, lol. Also got another tin of rubber black just to have extras

Anyone else getting Bad spelling Scam Email's??
stitchdup replied to ranma's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
would the scammer that offered to sell his mates parts to me on here count. messaging a mod to scam them shows the level of intelligence they have, though it did makes their removal a much simpler job -
its there because i subscribe. you need to use the international option

Tamiya Flat Clear Lacquer lightens the undercoat?
stitchdup replied to Ferbz's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Any flat clear will appear to lighten the colour but if you wet it it should look the same colour as before. its down to the light reflecting differently. in a similar way a satin clear will look to darken the colour slightly. you can see it best on darker colours -
crazed body - any fixes
stitchdup replied to gtx6970's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
you might be lucky enough if you used enamel primer. i dont get rustoleum where i live so dont know what type of paint is but i've had the same happen with plastikote primer and duplicolour. i was lucky enough it was just the paint that crazed, but even if the plastic has crazed you can probably save it using filler primer and repeated sanding like printed bodies -
i want to see a radial engine with a multi turbo set up. even if its only for show and never runs. it would be like those rolling bombs us british tried in ww2 wrapped in tube

if the primed surface is good you can give it a coat of silver or gold to stop the bleed through. then just carry on painting as normal
