I like it too!

Lovely color, great build! Glad I got a hold on one of these kits recently, they are pretty much sold out over here...
-
Thanks Adam!

Super-clean build, great color choice, lovely Pontiac!

Very nice result! I agree that Tamiya TS paints do not necessarily require clearcoat. They can be polished to a nice shine without that. I did my '69 Camaro the same way recently, using TS-40 and polishing stuff only. I like the way you did the rear panel. Applying the BMF there is no piece of cake, considering that the panel has to be painted in black. I know so well because I am currently doing the MPC snap kit, but in a very different color and with a flag on the roof...

1/24 Hasegawa Lancia Delta Integrale "Evoluzione"
Tommy124 replied to Tiago Malafaya's topic in WIP: Model Cars
And I preferred the 5-cylinder turbo Audi S2 Coupe that I had in the mid-90's. Much heavier, but really fast (chip-tuned engine). The story about the replaced turbo suits perfectly to what I heard about the Lancia's engine at the time. These engines weren't really renown for their durability. That didn't keep Lancia from winning 6 rallye world titles in a row though... -
1/24 Hasegawa Lancia Delta Integrale "Evoluzione"
Tommy124 replied to Tiago Malafaya's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Very nice work. I have seen quite a lot of these Delta kits spoiled by sloppy paint work on the grille. Yours is spot-on! -
Lamborghini Huracan Performante, Aoshima, 1/24
Tommy124 replied to Matt Bacon's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Nice choice of color and a great paint job aswell. Reminds me of your tutorial... Fully agree on sparing yourself the decal business, CF decals are significantly overrated, IMHO. -

Otaki 1/12 Lamborghini Countach Twin Turbo...Mission Statement
Tommy124 replied to Dann Tier's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I like 'em all... Basically, there are 3 Countach types to me: the original LP400, the "winged" 5000 type 80's car and the "final edition" 25th Anniversary car. The Anniversary type - done: The other 2 will be done yet, probably in the shape of the brilliant Aoshima kits which I'd prefer over the Fujimis EM's anytime: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/aoshima-046708-lamborghini-countach-lp400--196412 https://www.scalemates.com/kits/aoshima-01155-lamborghini-countach-5000-quattrovalvole-injection-ver-overseas--1030685- 363 replies

Re-engineering Monograms Lotus Esprit...new update!
Tommy124 replied to Dann Tier's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Careful, Dann, as that means you'll still have to build a Bugatti to complete the scenery... LOL! Btw, I have that dog kit too! -
Otaki 1/12 Lamborghini Countach Twin Turbo...Mission Statement
Tommy124 replied to Dann Tier's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I love this forum but I hate it that these "Big Boys" large-scale car builds are a in a completely different topic/ thread, one in which I rarely drop by. So I missed out again on a lot of your great progress, Dann. I don't know what to write about that anymore. Simply SB sensation!! I like your idea about modifying the "bull" and I will follow your WIP more regularly now!- 363 replies

Looking nice and a good and distinctive color choice. I have looked at a LOT of Chargers recently, and I don't remember any of them being yellow...

Waterslide decals-cleaning after application
Tommy124 replied to mitchy's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Good to know, thanks for the input! -
I basically agree, yet I guess that when we're talking about the dangers of a spark and possible ignition, we are not talking about paint particles, but the solvent (flammable?) fumes?? And those will not be stopped by filters. Then again I have used flammable colors, thinners and cleaners for some time now along with my spray booth and I assume that the concentration is not high enough for the worst case to happen. Just have to make sure of good fresh air ventilation and not to sit in a "bowl of flammable fumes" which will turn out to be unhealthy in any way...

Thanks to you too, Ludwig - appreciated!
