got a bunch of these to paint up. they have 2 different styles of can in the box here is one of them
-
exactly! you think they would want to show their product in the best possible way? same with whoever builds some of the box art models a box stock model built to a high standard doesn’t take that long to do, especially if it’s your job there’s really no excuse

New trigger-style airbrush - suggestions?

I own one and there’s no comparison, it does work fine i’ll be doing a review after a year or so of constant use.

I like the creos mr.hobby ps290 and it’s pretty cheap and works with iwata spare parts if you’re in no rush to buy something and save up your money i’d recommend the Colani as it’s overall the best airbrush I own. i don’t know about those Chinese brushes that are everywhere all of a sudden. I can’t find an unbiased review for that gaahleri brand it seems to be decent but buy at your own risk they are made with cheaper materials etc… and may not last . these ones below will still be working 50 years from now

hey guys, so i’m going to have to ship a built model to europe and i’m concerned how foam may affect my paint. i currently use mr.color clear lacquers and after doing some tests on “cured” paint it seems to damage the finish. my question is will 2 part clear be impervious to damage while being in contact with foam for long period of time? thanks any other suggestions on how to pack it would be great also

What’s your favorite glue or adhesive?
JET. replied to slusher's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
for general plastic glue I use MEK, bought a couple huge containers of it that will probably last the rest of my life. haven’t looked back since. and of course your typical super glues and super glue debonder . -
Just a heads up, the Michaels in St.Catharines on 4th ave. has new models in stock. The 71 Mustang, olds 442, etc. so they are carrying them again

Looking forward to this one. I assumed it would be out in April like now ? I'm getting a little bored with the ford trucks though, this body style is having a problem with warped hoods in all the recent kits.. wish they sell just the wrecker bed on its own.

Started adding the bare metal foil trim. I decided to add the chrome trim on the sides, not to many Nova’s had that I think it looks cool

Round tip tweezers are also better than pointy tweezers for holding small things and not shooting them across the room lol

Paint on the ‘69 nova, I used a purple flake, then 4 coats of candy pink, then pearl clear over everything. Then 5 coats of Mr.color gloss lacquer. Just gotta wet sand and polish it out still . Let it sit for the rest of the month to cure My Movie 41.mov
