  1. Yeah, I went a couple days ago here in Columbia, TN, cars kinda thinned out. I'm wondering it their are a lot of models and hobby items in containers sitting in the LA port. Oh, and they had a few MM spray paints and surprisingly, not marked down.
  2. Sorry to hear no more updates. Looked like as cool project.
  3. Very nice Gunner, I just got one myself to do. Cool car, love the big Pontiacs.
  4. Hi Zack. I complimented your Cobra a while back and about how good the Future looks. Did you polish it after applying it? I'm thinking about used it on a current build.
  5. Kinda late responding to this. I have to ask tho, I'm sure you did, but after polishing did you remove the polish from the paint before you did the future?
  6. Hey thanks, painting on a model right now, I'll definitely look later.
  7. Well that's interesting to know about the Alclad black chrome. Wish you have had tried it to see how it looks.
  8. Thanks, unfortunately no Alclad in my paint stash. Molotow tho.
  9. Those Impala wheels are soooo close. Didn't realiz No problem Peter. I didn't realze they are faux wire wheels. Those Impala wheels that "tbil" showed are soooo close. Problem now tho is where can you get some. Good luck Buddy!!
  10. Chrome OVER the black??
  11. Has anyone perfected this. I'm thinking Tamiya or MM transparent smoke over chrome. What cha got??
  12. Come on Buddy, just a little overspray in your pristine man cave garage ain't gonna hurt??
  13. Very nice David on that big ole '59. All around fantastic build?
  14. Oh yeah John, thats a looker. Gotta get a '40 to do. Great work?
  15. And good old Hobby Lobby who has all the brands.
  16. It's been so long since I have seen any decent car kits at my Ollies I don't remember when it was, probably as long a 2 years, But mine is not in a major city so that may be an issue.
  17. Though I've gotten hooked on Createx pearl colors (also an acrylic) I do like and have gotten some nice paint jobs with Anita's also. I don't specifically measure the paint to thinner ratio. The rule of thumb is mix to consistancy of 2% milk but I just add enough to get a good spray out. Windex, Auto Windshield washer fluid, Alcohol all work pretty much the same.
  18. Kinda hard Peter to make out in the pic exactly what the wheels look like. Better pic would be helpfull. I'm wondering too if an Australian car would have the same wheel covers as an American delivered one.
  19. Nice silver there Ron, whats the paint?
  20. Some good lookers there Bob. Why's yer '49 in the shade???
  21. My 2 cents, if it's gonna be a true old style drag racer, the one's on the left. The larger with low profile tires is more of a resto mod look. What you guy's think??
  22. Great work Anthony, cool looker?
  23. Well I can sure tell this is gonna be awesome, I'm watchin'??
