Hobby Town In Gilbert Gabriel

I got a look at the Revell catalog today that shows the 32 five window and ordered a half case

Wow Looks nice. Is that the snap kit ? what did you use for the chassis? Gabriel

Excellent build the engine is just perfect Gabriel.

You might try Anealing that part before you try and bend it. Anealing is obtained by briefly holding the PE part up to a flame, Allowing it to get red hot then let it cool. this changes the properties of the metal making it more flexible. Some care must be used as to not allow the part to sit in the flame too long PE is so thin it can melt away but if you do it quickly you will be just fine. Gabriel

I tend to get more satisfaction from scratch building, or even "modifying " a kit part to work like on a 1-1. However it can be time consuming and with the other Ideas swirling in my head along with the voices. Sometimes it can have a negative effect on my productivity. Kit bashing isn't something I have a lot of familiarity with although. I have come to see its Importance when it comes to earlier models with Molded in details or very little detail. Gabriel

Try Scale Equipment Limited they have several figures. Also Jimmy Flintstone has some too. Gabriel.

Thanks that was perfect Gabriel.

Does anyone have any pictures of what Norm Veber of Replicas and miniatures of Maryland has for the 49 merc

Both Of you did a great job, Really beautiful cars. Gabriel

I Was going to build this one Box stock, since it is just a paint experiment.it is a very nice kit I have interior and chassis painted already they just need assembly

Just painted with the Lone Wolf painting system

That is just Really Beautiful. Great job Gabriel

Had a great time building this one would like to build another one soon.http://public.fotki.com/Gabriel12/jo-han-cuda/ Gabriel

All of them are great, my favorite is the 55. Gabriel

Its really lookin good so far Marty. If you want to put a mural on it the simplest way would be too use a rub on style tattoo, The kind that you find in those 50 cent vending machines at the grocery stores. or you could just use some pinstripe decals along the side's which would look good too. Gabriel

I heard that a 392 hemi was going to be in the kit. With the flathead parts as well, As it is primarily based on the sedan kit. I would prefer a hemi over an ardun! Because the ardun parts can already be sourced from another kit. I hope Revell gets this one out on time (hah)I want a case of these. Gabriel

The model Guy at my LHS said next week! Just hang in there Bro, it' on the way. Gabriel

I like your work Gil, can you tell me more about the Blazer and the Nova. Gabriel

I built one years ago it was a very good kit then, I have another to build I think I will build a two wheel drive version this time. Gabriel

What is SG-100? Gabriel
