a gateway procedure to the above final method would be to paint the firewall solid color, and the glue wire of whatever color you want using the molded wire as a path. most of it would disappear into the shadow if your new wire was applied to the topside & viewing surface. a betcha a cookie after 2 or 3 like that, you'll be ready to sand down to flat and run the wires to suit. you can see the results are well worth the effort.

a mere pittance to the man who wants a piece of automotive history

will the running boards stay gone? i like it like that.

models or figures?

when the cost of a "normal" kit is inching to $40, plus aftermarket or donor kit cost, plus paint & sundries, it's kind of in-line for where we are in the hobby. am i the only one who looks at a model and sees $150 - $200 as the norm? wonder how long before a 3D guy pops out an engine for this behemoth ?

Q: are the holes in the chassis/ floor pan for screws like the old AMT kits?

addendum: initially i thought a "hobby compressor" would keep the wind in my airbrushing sales. worst investment and set back my attempts to learn airbrush painting for almost a year. public service announcement: buy a contractors style compressor with a two gallon air reservoir , air dryer filter thing, and long hose. you'll be glad in the long run.

i'm not touching the 900 kits stash or the unobtainium Pocher Rolls Royce landau with the box signed x the Queen Mother, but stuff you 'had to have' because it was going to revolutionize your model building experience. i'll go first : jump rings watch parts a dozen different sizes of magnets two dozen of beads/ weathering pencils weathering powders you?

every model is only practice for the next one

it's a slippery slope, mate

call your cc company and request a group call to the company. maybe he'll answer and it will reveal either hidden details or jog his memory. that worked once for me with a lumberyard that was intent giving me crappy lumber for too much money. i am never ceased to be amazed at companies which ship without tracking numbers. that should be built into their S & H charge. shame on them.

Q: have you called the 800 number on your card to see if you were charged? did MCG send you an order confirmation email? when you reviewed your previous orders, did you see the current/ missing in action order? in a take a deep breath moment, the past 20 years have groomed us as consumers to expect everything to work like a fine tuned watch. when it doesn't, we start to hyperventilate. the big A has spoiled us, allowed the development of unrealistic expectations, and perhaps set the bar unrealistically high for cottage industry, niche, businesses. and as a footnote: smartphones are the worst &*^%$* things ever invented.

un-litted

i have an Iwata Eclipse and like it because i have it. i learned with it and cannot find anything wrong that doe not trace back to my inexperience and that cannot be rectified with a couple of minutes of behavior modification. like a knife or bottle of wine, the best one is the one you have when you need it. it's a poor workman that blames his tools.

i'll let you do the second one. scroll down on the left you'll see download instructions. do it/ open it/ bob's your uncle Chevy Camaro Pro Stock, Monogram 85-4483 (2018)

Q: which kit is this? looks like it could be good fodder for a dirt tracker. thanks

fenders? i just call them bumpers

at this convergence, i am a believer

right. wheel flanges is what i meant . . . . now is that HO gauge, or HO scale? hmmm

THIS is why i am a model railroader! oh, wait: turnout? points? switch? macrame; now That's the hobby for me.

thanks DJ. i now feel like i can distribute the terms, and be technically correct doing so = conundrum solved! it's going to be a good day. sid

you rascal, you

if anyone is Jonesing for one of these kits, Spotlight has both: 1930s - Page 2 of 2 - Spotlight Hobbies
