MCM Regular (3/6)

  1. Looks like a fun project! Now I want one!
  2. You can never go wrong with black. I love the depth of black when it is polished out.
  3. Fabulous work! You are the master!
  4. The style of this model of car is just over the top and you can go so many ways with it. I love what you have accomplished so far.
  5. I love how you did just a very mild rust job. My first rust chipping was way over the top and looked too much. Yours looks realistic and what you would see on the road.
  6. I like where you are going with this. I recently picked up and old electric pencil. I thought I would try it gently on some plastic to see how it would work to make it look like rust cancer.
  7. This was my second attempt at salt chipping my paint. This is my rendition of an old Salt Flats racer that was pulled from a barn to go race. I wanted something better for the tonneau cover snaps but ended up just dotting with a marker. The cover is tissue paper coated in Mod Podge to hold its shape. I spread out a strip of glue and a strip of salt and rolled the tires through both. I didn’t like the large size of the front tires but they were a set and I figured back in the day, the non-sponsored racers grabbed what they could.
  8. Thanks for all the responses. I sort of knew the answer but didn't want to admit it. I also figured someone out there (probably all of you) were much smarter than me!
  9. OK, I'm not a steady as I used to be. I accidentally let a very thin strip of CA glue fall onto a windshield. Will the CA glue remover that is available dissolve it so I can wipe it away or will it leave a residue? Am I stuck with polishing it out? Thanks in advance! Mike
  10. Awesome project! I used to have a 1:1 M-43 Ambulance and an M-37. Wish I still had both!
  11. My local Ollies have not had any new models in a couple months. I still check daily!
  12. That is a soft easy color on the eyes! I like it.
  13. Having owned many 1:1 classic cars, I would never have thought of the '58 Plymouth as a car to be tubbed and raced. But I love where you are going with this!
  14. I love the flare idea. Never thought about doing it like that.
  15. Nice! I LOVE OLLIES! There are quite a few around the Oklahoma City area. I check at least once a week for new models. Can't wait to see your finished build!
