  1. Wow. You are really into this. Lets see some more.
  2. Very nice work. Are you super-gluing the panels or using Tenax / some other solvent based medium?
  3. Ashley, please do not take this as a personal attack, but I think you are missing the point of what we do here. Fix the hood. The model does not dictate how the model turns out. Besides this is a Cannonball CBP, a racer without a hood would not do well in a rain storm.

    Very cool!
  5. Thanks guys. I appreciate the ata-boys. Gonna let that enamel gas out for a few days and then get started. Any opinions on the weathering?
  6. We got paint. Krylon silver and Italian Olive. Military decals soon and then a coat of flat clear. Maybe some minor weathering. I'm still undecided.
  7. You have too much work in that up til now to scrap the project. Fix the issues. That's what we do here. If this was easy, everyone would do it.
  8. I have my own original Batmobile in the works also. There's been some more done since these photos were taken. It's not quite so rough looking.
  9. Very soon. Started the math.
  10. The MPC '67 Charger had a 426 w/ a crossram. Check the Revell '67 and '68 Charger kits for the deeper Cragars. Not positive if they were deeper, but they were supposed to go with the kit supplied cheater slicks.
  11. The two times I've tried to correct a twist in body or chassis, the twist came back later on, after the car was finished. I advise the replacement of the part entirely. It's just not worth the headache. If it's a recently released kit, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
  12. Yeah, gonna have to bring the a-game this year. Starting the GT-Oh very soon.
  13. How John builds revealed. Amazing work. I think Kerry is right.
  14. All of the above. Whether it's a throaty rumble, or a roar that scares small animals for three miles, and makes Ralph Nader wet himself, I love the sound of aggressive exhaust, no matter it's source.
  15. The Burton batmobile captured my imagination like no other. It just exuded power and armor and stealth and oh-so-much Bat-style! It just doesn't get any better than this.
  16. Quick update. Some big 'ol fat-nasty sidepipes. They will be flat black to contrast with the green body and the aluminum heat shields will get polished up some .
  17. I think you did a good job. It looks just fine. I wouldn't worry to much about adding extra stuff just yet. Learn to build as cleanly as you possibly can, then, start adding more detail.
  18. I'll be following along. Keep it going. Looks neat so far.
  19. Whats up with this mess? I've seen you do this in two threads now.
  20. Yep, I went a little further with some tan paint to look like road dust, but thats right on.
  21. Real nice work. It looks great.
  22. Very authentic. Great work.
