    Yeah Scalehobbyist is awesome. I support them a lot.

    Went back out of town, and figured I’d check out HL. They were a disappointment as always. Found these two at hobby town cheap so I snatched them.
  3. Dpate
    What’s your plan with all of these?
  4. Dpate
    Dang the pursuit already out. Hopefully my main shops or hobby lobby gets them.

    Sweet! Definitely gonna pick up that 60 F-100. Thank you.

    Are these 100% new tooling?

    I use a combination of two products when I'm dealing with chrome, and the process works every single time. I use 100% lye that you can buy from Ace hardware, walmart, lowes etc that is what removes the fake chrome that is what is in a lot of these products like "Easy off" 5% lye. The 2nd product i use is something i stubbled on when hunting for a paint remover product, but to my surprise it removes the chrome underlayer varnish with ease. 5-10 mins depending on how thick the varnish is. Sadly it's hard to find, but there is another alternative as well, and a little cheaper as well. It's called Odenkan SC-02 paint remover $10 for 500mL. The picture is of the 2nd product i was talking about.

    These came in today. Already had got the bat pod, but seen they had a 1:18 scale so opted to buy and build this one.

    These came in today. Got 15 bottles of Mr. Hobby 18ml mixing bottles as i didn't wanna use up my tamiya mixing bottles. 3 bottles of different shades of gold, and gaia being the first bottle I've ever owned of there's.

    Now that looks like Rallye green. After relooking through the thread I got mixed up somehow with Steve’s post lol. It’s definitely Rallye green though.

    Looks like fathom green poly to me. That ditzler is old, and the color looks darker than it is.

    New replacement bottle came in today from scalefinishes. Sprays flawlessly, and still can’t figure out what happened to the first bottle. Either way James is the real MVP.
  13. Dpate
    Got these Mr.Colors for custom mixing for other projects.
  14. Dpate
    Sparmax easy choice.

    So after explaining everything to James he’s sending out a new bottle of paint. Great guy and service. Not sure how bad bottle of paint happens, but very rare with his paints as this is the first bottle out of the 60 colors I own from him to be bad.
