  1. I'm glad you finished it. I find that difficult builds like these make you a better modeler. Thanks for the building tips. They will be useful when I build this kit.
  2. Cool replica and nice story.
  3. I just started doing a build sheet for each project when done. I include the usual information about the build plus notes on lessons learned from new building techniques, materials and tools used that succeeded and failed.
  4. Just convert AMT's 1972 kit using Modelhaus 1970 Chevy pick up parts.
  5. Cool project. I have this idea on my "to do" list. I was thinking of using tiny red plastic beads from Michaels for the dingle balls.
  6. I am the borderline of whether I am going to continue to watch "Fast n' Loud". It's gotten worse. My favorite automotive show is Fantom Works. The work on the cars is the main focus. Last month I was vacationing in Mexico and was flipping through the channels and found the Discovery Channel. In Mexico, "Fast n' Loud" is called the "Mechanical Duo" which is funny because Richard does not work on the cars.

    Citation

    Nice to see a Citation build posted. When I was a kid by parents drove a 1981 Citation 4-door hatchback. You rarely seen one on the road in California. Last month I was vacationing in central Mexico and spotted a hatchback Citation. Pretty neat.
  8. Earlier this year I bought a couple of resin kits for the first time from MCW. I found the quality to be good. One of the kits was missing the rear window. I emailed him and received the missing window a week later. I am glad he stood behind his products. I would definitely order resin kits from him again.
  9. Looks like a good show. Thanks for the pics.
  10. If it's the small square bottles I just put the bottle in a vise and twist off the cap with pliers.
  11. I live in a studio apartment. I do everything except for airbrushing and spray painting which I do at my parent's house. If possible, ask a relative or friend who lives in a house if they will let you paint there.
  12. Neat build. Good job. I am going to have to get this kit.
  13. Good build. Cool color combo.
  14. Cool roadster. I really dig the detailing on this build. Good job.
  15. Good job on the restoration. I have an ebay glue bomb '68 Caddy waiting to be restored. Hopefully it turns out as nice as yours.
  16. Cool Merc. Well built and finished.
  17. Good work. It's one of the nicest builds of this kit I have seen.
  18. Sweet hot rod. Excellent job making all of the parts from different kits work well together.

  21. Checked it out at the grocery store yesterday. Pretty nice.
