NOBLNG

I bought these a while back and they seem to be pretty good. I will usually grab a new blade if I am doing something intricate. But if I am just scraping flash or hacking away at something, I’ll give it a few swipes back and forth on the diamond hone. It only takes a few seconds.

I am hoping to get it apart. I have another identical kit that has not been started. I will scrape as much glue off as I can first. If I can’t gently pry them apart then, I will try the freezer.

Great job on that dashboard! The interior looks nice too.?

My BSI thin CA has gone yellow and thickened up…so time for some new stuff. My local HS has been unable to get Tamiya LP-5 for a long time now. He is now stocking this Mr Hobby laquer paint. I hope it is as good as the Tamiya stuff.

I’ve never had to filter any paint, just mix it well. If the paint is lumpy, toss it and get some fresh stuff.

I know next to nothing about Studebakers, but I think they were very unique looking cars. I’m following this one.?

Saw this today in the Burger King parking lot.

Picked up this one last week for 5 bucks at a flea market. The engine is really glued in well….and not even close to the correct place.?

Nice work. I love that colour!?

I do the same. You can probably triple the use you get out of a blade. For foil work though, a fresh blade works best.

China!

Neat marketing gimmick I think.

Beautiful! I love the colours too.?

Great looking car!?

I have made an impression in silly putty and cast them using Bondic. It was just an experiment and I haven’t used them on a model yet. I have also made them out of clear plastic in this thread. Maybe someone knows of another source? http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/161380-making-headlights/?tab=comments#comment-2452651

Got a good deal on these at a flea market. They have all been started so I hope they are complete. The Mustang I just got for the wheels and tires and engine.

Wow! You like to keep a lot of paint in stock.?

I bet she could make the mileage on the odometer readable.

That turned out great! Really good job on the weathering!?

I understand completely! We Ford and Chebby guys have it easy. You know, being a Mopar Guy….that the “hehe times” are very few and far between.??

Yes it is! And thank You CabDriver for posting a link to it! Here’s mine.

I didn’t have any warpage issues with mine. I did however have the chrome peel off of the front axle and the radiator shroud…so I wound up painting it. Be careful if you mask any of the chrome. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/159642-‘29-model-a/?tab=comments#comment-2370560

Mark, that sounds like exactly what is in my box, including the wrong instructions.? It looks like it should build up nicely though.

Beautiful…one of my all time favourite cars.?

I bought it at a flea market, unsealed. All the parts inside were bagged though, and all the parts are the same shade of grey.
