Ferrari 512BB rememberance build....99% done
Dann Tier replied to Dann Tier's topic in WIP: Model Cars
The rear taillight panel was jammed in there, my friend didn't sand it enough to fit in properly, so even though I carefully scored around it with my Olfa, it took chunks of paint off. I carefully sanded it smooth, then put a good amount of super glue over to act as a glazing putty. After that, I kolored the area to be sanded , with a sharpie so that I can make sure its repaired properly. I used Tamiya panel line accent on all the vents, and just a hint on the leading edge of the head lamps.

1ordered my Aoshima Countach on Aug 2...…...still don't have it!! -two weeks later, I ordered two more kits from Japan...….got them in 7 days!!…..inquired about my Countach…..its SOMEWHERE in N.Y.!!!!….ordered still another kit from Hong Kong.....got that one in a week!!! I've learned that anything coming through freaking N.Y., isn't a good thing, but Chicago......no problems.

ebay stores...….usually "free" shipping means; you will get it by carrier pigeon...

1965 Ferrari 206P Dino - Forgotten Prototipo
Dann Tier replied to Italianhorses's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Welcome back, Alex!!, I've always admired your work!....sorry to hear about your situation. I hope you do get better. I struggle with issues that have almost made me get rid of everything as well. You did an EXCELLENT job on this build!! -
VERY NICE!!!....Harry would ask; 'Where are the mirrors'......lol
-
I too think it looks great!!…….I actually DID bin my first one......tell me if these problems sound familiar; 1-windscreen doesn't have enough lip to glue to, 2-wiper doesn't really fit all that good under the bonnet, which makes the blade end stick-out away from the glass.....I had to VERY carefully glue mine down without fogging the windscreen.....NOT fun, and 3-the headlamp housings are a pain in the...……..to get to fit properly!!!
-
I agree 100%!!!!......VERY hard to find kit wires that look as realistic as these!!…..Protar does them EXTREMELY well also!!

not all lacquers are the same, I have successfully sprayed Duplicolor clear, and Tamiya clears over Krylon, which by the way, is waaaay better than Crapoleum -sprays like Duplicolor, and even though its enamel, its ALOT more durable!!

Hey, Chris! For a Flat black, I use their Black Sandable Primer. For a semi-gloss black, I use their Universal Flat black, which ISNT flat...lol, and for a gloss black, I use their Universal Gloss Black. If for some reason I cant get ahold of these Duplicolors, I go with Tmiya sprays, and lets say you need a flat black, but you only have Duplicolors semi-gloss, and gloss blacks, I would pick one of them to spray first, and then use Tamiyas Flat Clear over it. You can do this with their semi, and gloss clears as well...
-
That's right, at this point it, its worth a try....

Hey, bud!, I looked up the instructions for your kit, and heres an idea for you that I came up with. If it were me, this is what i'd try.... you just need some thin clear sheet styrene.
