  1. I mask around the area to be foiled then apply the foil, making sure to burnish down very well with a qtip. Then I cut along the line with a new blade and pull the tape off. The extra foil comes off with the tape.
  2. looks good! I'm a foil noobie as well. I found if I mask areound the area first and use new blades it goes a lot better
  3. Nice job. Looks just rigt for a street car. I love it!
  4. Great Project! something specal about building a model of your 1:1. I have a few of my Camaro.
  5. Thank you for that! I am proud of what I have been able to make out of it. Would you happen to know if the other 1/16 kits in this lane are any better? I'd really like to build the '57 Chevy.
  6. Looks great.
  7. All in good time my friend!
  8. Inching towards the finish line on this one Ive decided to mount the shaker to the hood. Kinda bummed out about it, but with this kits fit and finish AND my skill set it seems an easy way out
  9. Very nice Michelle! The wood grain looks great with the body color
  10. Very nice! Looks like something Billy Gibbons would drive
  11. Looking good! What did you to make tires look so realistic?
  12. Mike. After you mask, maybe try spraying some clear to seal the tape. The next color won’t bleed through
  13. It'll work out Mike. Take your time.
  14. Looks great. Coolest Batmobile ever!
  15. looks good! the green is sharp
  16. I agree with Mike. The best results that I have had with bmf, have been when I masked around the area first.
  17. Looks great Michelle. Very nice detailing on the interior and dash as usual!
  18. Thanks Mike. Looking forward to pics of you WIP
  19. So I started final assembly and while I have enjoyed building this kit, the final assembly has shown some issues. Could be my fault, but the shaker does not line up with the hole in the hood, the rear ends sits a little low. I may have to put some lift shackles for the leaf springs. I was a little worried about the color gold I picked but I think it turned out ok all the time I spent trying to get the plug wires correct and you can’t even see them. LOL
