    The rolling chassis is looking pretty good. The engine color looks nice.

    Looking pretty slick there Jim. progress it looking killer. I like your little trick on transferring the steel rule markings to tape.

    Looking good so far and should be a nice build. I like the Mustangs and just picked up the Revell 66 Mustang at Michael's on sale.

    Nice kit. That blue and white lacquer should look pretty good.
  5. Zippi
    That looks pretty kewl. I'll have to keep tabs on this one.

    Nice looking bunch of rides. I'd love to go to a cruise-in on the coast like that. Love that orange & white 55 hardtop with the Hemi.

    Thanks for the information on both kits Adam. Should be a fun build on both.

    I'd say the test pic worked fine. Nice looking.

    Hey James....look what I received in the mail today from Revell. It took a while for the second set to get here but they look pretty darn good. My hats off to Revell for following through on this.

    This was our last car show for the year. It was a beautiful sunny day and a great way to end the year. Enjoy the pics.

    That looks like what I do James. Looks pretty good. I set my model on the freezer and the wall is white.

    I have been testing different paints and processes from all the info I've received and the videos I've watched on the interweb for the past 6+ months. I have a process which is two light coats and two wet coats. Even though it seems to be working ok for now it does seem to change each time I get the airbrush out. Sometime I get more orange peel than I would like and sometimes it's very light. It gets me to scratching my head every time I get ready to spray a body not knowing what the outcome might be. I'm still working on it. I seem to do better on the darker colors when spraying the lacquer clear on as I can see it going on and regulate it.

    Thanks for the info Bill-e-boy. You have a nice setup. I have a 2 1/2 car garage and keep it pretty nice do to the back that I keep my 49 Chevy pickup. Its a driver but more of a show truck so I can't take the risk of any over spray getting on the finish. Ill just have to deal with it but thanks for the info.

    Nice looking Ranchero. Great paint job. Yeah, I'd say you've voided the warranty on this one.
  16. Zippi
    Thanks man. Yup, It's getting the dreaded foil. Last model I foiled I had an issue with it sticking as others on here will tell you the same. I'm hoping for the best and expecting the worst.

    That's a nice looking GMC car hauler. Love those oldies with the fat fenders. Great job.

    Nicely done. The stance just looks so good. Nice detail work. That is a good looking red. Those Tamiya kit look like they are really a nice quality kit.

    Pretty slick looking Audi. Nicely detailed and clean looking build.
  20. Zippi
    Lots of kewl looking Hot Rods. Love the 3 window and 5 window 32's. Great photos.
  21. Zippi
    Great looking Ford. Color looks nice. A side by side pic of both trucks would look nice.
  22. Zippi
    Yeah that turned out nice. That red body with the red steelies looks so good.
  23. Zippi
    Thanks for the kind words Steve.

    Sweet looking little Pinto. Love the paint and that Cobra engine. I knew a guy back in the day that had a Pinto but it looked nothing like yours. Great looking.
  25. Zippi
    Nice progress on the T'Bird buddy. That engine looks really kewl and detailed. You'll get the paint issue and clearing it worked out. You always do. Nice work so far.
