  1. I've had great results with the one coat laquers and also the Model Master laquers but only use the flat colors in their enamel. I have had to many cans of their enamel hemorrhage paint out and drip all over the floor. Pretty much have switched over to Tamiya paints for all builds now.
  2. Exactly! One of my favorite shows!
  3. Looking good!
  4. I would like to retire at 62 but I'm not sure if I would be able to get insurance before Medicaid/Medicare kicks in. Had a heart attack and triple bypass at 55 so I'm not sure if anybody would be willing to insure me or how costly it would be. Oh well, still have four more years for before 62.
  5. Great craftsmanship, turned out spectacular!
  6. Looks sharp!
  7. Your GTO turned out great, very nice indeed.
  8. Just wondering if Rust-Oleum has always manufactured Testors paint or is this something fairly new. I hadn't noticed in the past and don't recall reading anything about it here, but I could have missed it. Picked up several cans this morning at Hobby Lobby and just happened to notice.
  9. Looks fantastic!
  10. Good one!
  11. This is me on my last bass fishing trip in the bayous of Louisiana, the Atchafalaya Basin, Americas last great overflow swamp.
  12. Thanks guys! I was quite impressed with the detail and quality of a snap kit. Here are some early morning outdoor pics if anyone is interested.....
  13. Very sharp looking racer!
  14. Picked this one up super cheap at Michaels a while back as a slump buster while I'm stuck on three other builds. Paints is Model Master Classic White with Tamiya clear. I need to go back and fill in the panel lines and I don't think I'll use the Molotow pen again for wheel opening moldings as it is rather unforgiving.
  15. I would say it turned out great even with the kits shortfalls. Your choice of the Fiery Orange fits it well.
  16. Looks good in red!
  17. Looks like a cool and unique kit. I don't think I would want to be strapped into that though!
  18. What a fantastic collection and yes the yellow one is my favorite.
  19. Extremely well built and detailed. So you just used a thin strip of tape for the seams only?
  20. Off to a great start, I'll have to break mine out one of these days.
  21. I like it! I'm currently working on the AMT Gasman and its one self inflicted problem after another, so I know exactly where your coming from. 1
  22. Now that's extremely nice looking, I really like the color.
  23. Hey Rich, I was hoping someone would answer that knew exactly, but I do believe it has something to do with the block or piston configuration of this particular V8. The decals were kit supplied so I just used them.
