MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. I have done that technique, sometimes it works and sometimes the foil will dull or peel up. Looks great when it works though, lol.
  2. Awesome! Glad you found some inspiration from my build. The '67 Impala chassis fits perfectly into the '70. Scratch building the windscreen cowl to the firewall was probably the most labour intensive part if I remember. Look forward to seeing progress.?
  3. I wouldn't be surprised. I've been reading up about chrome plating for some hours now (I know little about it) though thankfully plastic chrome looks to be safe from these little Hitlers... for now. Not sure if they could, to be honest. Vehicle headlights are chrome plated plastic, we'd be driving with very dim lights if not plated. lol
  4. Thanks for the link. The process of plating plastic is different so hopefully we're safe there.
  5. Yep, as if they couldn't think up another way to destroy more industry, the EU along with the UK have banned chrome plating but have also banned the import of chrome plated items. Most of what I've read is about 1-1 vehicles but no one seems to be talking about the other endless applications it's used in like scale kits and model vehicles. I haven't done a deep dive on the issue but it's not looking good if the ban covers everything and anything. Don't take away my model kit building!?
  6. Beautiful! I love this kit, always a looker on the shelf. Very nice work!?
  7. My dad had the more basic Austin Cambridge version in the early 80's, blue with a white stripe. He part exchanged it for a Morris Marina, I remember thinking how posh and modern it felt compared to the Cambridge, Lol.
  8. ah, I can see it now, the front of the fenders. The '69 does look good!
  9. ah ok, quite a bit then! I thought the body was the same between the '69 and '70.
  10. Those are very good. Lovely shading.
  11. Beautiful. I like what you did to the hood, gives the front a clean look and less fussy.
  12. I was messing around on one of those Ai generator sites and it came up with some crazy looking drawings. These are some of the cars I asked it to do. It's lots of fun and it gave me some ideas for some kit bash builds!
  13. wow, now that's impressive! Stunning work there. Very well done indeed!!
