  2. I have the standard revell/monogram gtx kit 1/24 and I swapped in a revell 1/25 hemi from the 67gtx? I think fits and guy can’t tell the difference, I added. Fireball model works resin carbs and some details but either way it will work

    Finally finished my instagram build off 57 gasser,.. car fought me till the end! Anyways put this one to rest and on to another build!
  14. very nice1 cant wait to see it finished!
  15. starting to see these pop up on e bay now!

  17. i use the mcw paints and i use the hardner to speed drying time,i also mix it with mr hobby self levelling thinner or mcw thinner(self levelling also),that gives me the glossy look,...people use auto motive hardner/catalyst for same results such as finish line products(sherwin williams brand) if you use your testors/model master paints i would suggest thinning them with mr hobby levelling thinner,..you will get the same results.
  18. Thank you ! Hopefully I can get it done in time
  19. As the title says I am in the midst of a instagram build off that ends at end of November, to say this thing has been kicking my butt is an understatement! Had the body all painted ready to clear , and was unmasking it and dropped it on my concrete floor it chipped the paint on the front right fender have the numerous attempts of trying to match it. I ended up spraying the whole body lol anyway it has more rims on it , a fab -9 inch ford rear and a small block tunnel ram, I built a roll cage for it, hopefully going to finish it by the end of this month when it ends here is my progress so far IMG_4677.mov
  20. looking good so far Zippi!
  21. I took a break from muscle car building and jumped on some street rod projects, all bodies are drag city, castings, resin chopped ones. I am using iceman collections 3-D printed dropped front axles, and a dropped frame and some 3-D printed engines , and some tires /wheels from them as well, these will eventually be painted with tropical glitz metallic colors work in progress at the moment.
  22. i always use enamels,preferrinf MCW paints,and i always use their hardner mixed in with it,..with that said i always wait one week,sometimes longer if im doing other projects,and after a week you cant smell the strong lacquer thinner/enamel smell any more,then i wet sand/polish
