Years pass by like hours and hours sometimes seem like an eternity.

That pretty much sums up most of my builds.🙄 Seriously…this is looking really great Steve! I love the color on it.👍😎

Nice! Looks much better in the red.😎

Years and years from now history will only remember me as a slight blip on a few website forums….and I’m O.K. with that.

Beautiful work so far Mark!👍

Looking good! You could switch to lacquers or acrylics. Both dry quicker than enamels. I’m no paint expert, but you could also try thinning the Rustoleum with a bit of lacquer thinner?

Way to keep things out of the landfill.👍 Carry on!😎

The blue looks nice!😎 Vallejo makes an ivory that might be close to what you want? Or possibly Mr.Color 313 Yellow?

Forth without with is tough to start a sentence with, so I’ll take the easy way out.

Around the halfway point in building an older Revell 55 Chevy coupe, momentum ground to a halt.

It’s looking good Len!👍😎

And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that…models aren’t like women.😳

Exact control of the exacto knife will yield the results you desire exactly.

Perfectly normal. I tend to like assembling engines and suspension parts and doing any chopping or bodywork. Then I kind of stall out and resist getting the paint phase started or completed.🥴 So I start another one.

From the American Chemical Society site: “Ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate and its cousins polymerize instantly in water. The small amount of moisture in air is enough to initiate polymerization. The polymer forms within a matter of minutes, creating a bond that is often stronger than the materials it joins.” It will also react with cotton and some other materials creating fumes.

Cool bodywork ! 👍😎

Nice job on the chop!👍😎

Beatles in their heyday were almost as invasive as beetles.

In my experience, when removing clear parts from the sprue, it’s best to use a saw to cut the sprue close to the attachment point. Then use a file or sanding stick to remove the remainder. Using nippers risks cracking the plastic since clear parts are more brittle than regular styrene.

Beautiful work Jason.👍

Or, the toes could be sanded back a bit too?

I wonder how the Desoto grill would look mounted upside down with the last bumper option?😈

I have a Paasche H and although it is a really great airbrush, it may be a little small for 1/8 scale projects. Here is a video that may give you some good info. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0dKHxv0gGo

Great video and some great projects you’ve got going on.👍😎 I wish you and your family all the best.
