Point me in the right direction because I have no idea where I am going.

Nice score! Things do not go on sale like that here in Canada.😕

I put a slightly shortened toilet paper tube over the bottle so the mixer doesn’t spray paint everywhere when I pull it out.

I am no paint expert, but I prefer lacquers. They dry quick and can be re-coated pretty much anytime. My advice for a newbie would be to stick to paints and primers made for hobbyists. You didn’t say where you paint, apartment, house, garage? If you have a space where you could use an airbrush, it opens up a whole lot of paint options that aren’t available in rattle cans. That said…yes you can get excellent results from rattle cans.

Here is a link to a tool I made for scribing trim. https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/140583-trim-scriber/

That might be too much? I’d just put one or two lavender pleats in two or three places. Just enough to break up the expanse of white? JMO.😎

Scott, that engine looks fabulous!👍

I thin this with lacquer thinner and keep it ready to go in one of my Paasche H jars. I use my battery powered mixer to stir it before use. If it has thickened up from sitting awhile, I just add a bit more LT.

Windows won’t need replacing anymore if you answer the door in the buff.

How about the styrene tuck-n-roll with some sort of purple accents?

You could fit some massive speakers in that package shelf 😈 (see how I’m sticking with your purple theme).

Building models is not as much of a priority when the summer weather beckons you to head outdoors.

“It” is a novel by Steven King about a demonic Clown named Pennywise.

That is the reason that I moved the fenderwells from the chassis to the body. I should have mentioned it sooner.

Shirt and shoes required if you want to get served in this establishment.

The primer does not “soak in” to the plastic. In my understanding, the dyes can leach out and tint the primer, and it can leach out further to tint the paint if a sealer of some sort is not used as a barrier.

It looks great! I did my ‘41 Chevy pickup in Premier Colonial Red and it goes down nice. I got a little bit of crazing from the Testors gloss that I used over it.

I think your upholsterer did a fine job!😎 A little late to mention now, but I cut those inner fender wells off the chassis and added them to the body.

Beautiful clean build Chuck. It’s got attitude and the muscle to back it up!👍😎

Wow, that is one beautiful looking Bronco! I would be proud to drive that around.👍😎

Thanks John.🙂 Thank you Mike.🙂 Thanks Stuart. I hope to get it under glass in the very near future.🙂 Thank you Rafael.🙂 By all means, dig it out and get back at it.😜

Love that engine!😎

Great start Eric. I like the tilt front end idea.👍

Why is that man beating it with a salami?

Darn right it looks quite good! Wonderful work.👍😎
