  1. That makes perfect sense. I’ll give that a try. Thanks!
  2. I’ve been working on this kit off and on for a long time now. The one thing that keeps putting me off is the headlight bezel areas. The molding is pretty bad. Any suggestions on how I can repair/rebuild that area? I’ve messed with it a little, but it’s beyond my experience level right now.
  3. Hey guys, quick question about delamination. I just pulled this body off the printer, and 99% of it came out great. But the front roll pan delaminated a bit. So I think that’s telling me the angle at that area was too level to the print bed, correct? But the bigger question is, can I salvage it? If I trim away the layers that delaminated, can I putty it back in, or is this body scrap?
  4. Got clear coat on my Mustang body this morning. Came out very nice, but it’ll need a little bit of wet sanding/polishing to really bring out the shine.
  5. Instead of that, I had oatmeal and a cold blast of water on my ski behind the boat this morning.
  6. Do you have to do any clean up to the files before printing? I’m curious to see how it looks coming off the printer too.
  7. Also, they are capable of making a much better noise.
  8. Glue giggles... those were the days!
  9. Holy smokes, that’s absolutely beautiful… Excellent job.?
  10. Nice! Great color combo.?
  11. Me and you all should get together and do some kit building.
  12. I wish. Just call me Jack of many trades, master of none.
  13. Call me later tonight.
  14. I HIGHLY recommend it. They’re a game changer for our hobby.?
  15. Yup. I 3D printed it a few weeks ago. Just want to get through a few other projects before it gets tackled.
  16. Cool build! Didn't you 3D print the flares? They look great on there. I'm working on a black '69 in between projects currently.
  17. I’m calling the interior done.
  18. Got one of my grail kits today! I’ve wanted one of these since the mid 70’s. Our classroom had a little model car show one day (this was elementary school) and one of the kids brought this in. His older brother had built it, and it blew my young mind! I never forget that model. Thank you Atlantis for bringing this awesome kit back!
  19. Diamonds are forever...forever...forever...
  20. Two stones with one bird… wait, that’s not the correct saying.?
  21. Weather you like it or whether you don’t, it’s my turn.
  22. Wow! That's absolutely drop dead gorgeous! Excellent workmanship!
  23. Got a little more detail work done today.
  24. Got the seat painted today. I’ve been putting this off for a long time now, because I’m not very good at masking. I was pretty sure this would get botched, but I’m happy with the results.?
  25. I can’t take too much credit. That Mr. Surfacer 1500 is amazing stuff!?. I’m really getting into the Mr Hobby stuff.
