    That's pretty sharp looking. I like the 3 duces.
  2. Looks pretty kewl. I like the stance and color.
  3. Yup. I've only used Tamiya's lacquers and the alcohol didn't work. Maybe I need to leave it in the drink for a few days. Haven't tried the easy off. Thanks for the info.l
  4. That's interesting. I've used the 91% alcohol for some time and it removes acrylic paints but would not remove the Tamiya lacquer or the Rust-Oleum enamel. After 24 hrs the Testors enamel was not touched.
  5. With a price tag of $150,000 it's out of my pay grade and many others.
  6. That's a good series. I watched it a while back.
  7. What a good looking Plymouth. Great looking paint job. The stance looks pretty kewl. Nice job.
  8. I'm going to airbrush a 56 Ford pickup later today (if the heat is not to bad) with all the big curves using this method again. I'm going with my hardest color to paint......yup Black. I primed it in gray yesterday so we'll see how it goes.
  9. Just did this. I dipped the body in 91% isopropyl alcohol over night. It will remove the wax. There may be a little bit left over in the door gaps etc. but I normally do a light sanding anyway and that works for me.
  10. Everything looks really nice. I just started on a 29 Highboy.
  11. I did a paint test on a 56 Ford truck body with this method and I liked the results. I liked it so much I airbrushed my 29 Roadsters the same way. As you said, best paint job I've done so far. I'll be watching this.
  12. Pretty good looking Charger. Nice job.
  13. This will be a nice build. Going with the same color on the box?
  14. Your build is coming along pretty good. I like that 300 body style.
  15. Nice work on the mods. That yellow 57 looks Nasty.
  16. It looks pretty kewl James. Nicely done. I need to pick this kit up the next time I'm at HL.
  17. Those all 3 look super nice. What a great trio. Very nicely done.
  18. That looks pretty kewl. I like it.
  19. Haha.....is that a bowling trophy???
  20. Nice looking Hot Rod. That garage or barn looks like a nice gathering spot to set around and shoot the breeze.
  21. I like how you painted your coil over shocks in the rear. How did you go about painting those?
  22. Looking pretty good on the build so far Anton. Looks like Chevy orange for the engine so you going with a traditional body color for the Camaro or custom?
  23. Nice looking.
  24. That is one good looking 29 Roadsters. Nice color and detail work.
  25. Thanks James. Its kind of strange to hear someone say how good looking my paint job is considering I'm still figuring it out myself.
