  1. Arriving at the office this morning and looking up at the sky. I love to see red skys and I always take pictures of them.
  2. I have fond memories of building a 70 Chevelle. It was molded in dark blue. I also remember the distinct smell of burning plastic and for some reason whenever I hear U2 Sunday Bloody Sunday on the radio, I think back to those days at my desk with that kit. It's strange how sights, smells and sounds can take you back to another time in your history.
  3. I bought this about a month ago. Wanting to up my paint game I thought I'd give it a try. I got them at Harbor Freight for about $118. Not knowing a whole lot about airbrushing I consulted You Tube and learned a few things. I've used it 5 or 6 times so far with pretty good results. So far I've shot the crafting acrylics mixed 1:1 with IPA 70% at 25psi and finger nail polish mixed with remover mixed 1:1 at 25psi. The only downside is the clean up process. I still use rattle can for bodies but have found this to be real useful to paint the head liners. Just my .02
  4. Super nice job! I cant get over how much the shape resembles the Corvette.
  5. Wow! Lots to see here! Great attention to detail. I'll be stealing a few of these ideas!
  6. Not much to report on... Engine base pretty much figured out. I thought the earth tones were a nice touch. Nothing special. Stay Tuned...
  7. Wow! Great color. Love the stripes! Keystones are killer
  8. 2 coats of Duplicolor with 1 coat of Minwax poly then polished with Meguiars. Stay Tuned...
  9. Here's my latest... 69 Pontiac GTO in HO scale. I removed the roof and added an interior. First time officially shooting finger nail polish
  10. That is really very nice! I love the garage too
  11. Thanks man, if you ever have a set of earbuds go south on you, use the wire as heater hoses 😆
  12. Nice clean build. A sleeper for sure! Well done
  13. Incredible detail on that 1:32! 1:24/5 should be a breeze after that! I really like your colors. Great stick shift too. I would have never known. Well done
  14. Goldilocks is sweet! Nice and low
  15. Great color and perfect shine. Love it
  16. Great looking Mako. Those lines are so sexy
  17. Thanks everyone for your suggestions. She's now Under Glass. Thanks for following along.
  18. Alright, I'm calling it. I've gone as far as I can go with this one. She was missing a few pieces and if you were following, you know I had to make a few. If I run across the pieces I need, I'll put em in place then. I'm quite pleased with this one. It was my first airbrush experience. And using craft paint as the medium. I'll definitely be using it more often. Mess ups are a breeze when you dont have to use chemicals to strip a body part with almost no wait time. How the sausage was made is here. Thanks for looking.
