  1. Great work!!
  2. I will get a box big enough to hold a kit box for sure. I plan on priming things when home, and have a .. on the road kit always in prep. I use acyrlics for detail and such work, so always have water on hand lol. I will hunt the nail brushes down for sure. I have medicine bottles so can shove extra blades in it. And an extra 2 rolls of tape for masking. And yeah we have tools, my wife has fabric for quilting lol.
  3. I plan on going to HL after I eat dinner to hit it for a couple things, brushes, and now a cutting mat. I have been on the road a lot for work, and was like man, I wanna build.. but yeah. Is there anything else you can think of? I am gonna get a pencil box that has good locks to keep things from bouncing about in the suit case.
  4. WOW!! The level of detail is .. awesome!! I need to keep building to get better and one day put out this kind of beauty!
  5. Awesome work!! And I just learned a new technique on interior detailing! Thank you!!! I never thought of it. The taping of dash etc to paint vents and such!
  6. No pics .. but snagged a pair of nippers, exacto knife, and some glue... gonna start doing some assembly on a couple kits I have, and maybe get them primed. I figure if I preassemble things like block, rearend assemblies and paint them, when I get home I just have to do body paint and interior painting. Plus I get to build while I on the road. I am gonna build me a travel tool kit for modeling I can keep in my suitcase, and bring paint along (Minus sprays) and a couple kits each time I am on the road.
  7. Ohhh following this!! That engine is beautiful! Thanks for the tip on the pass through on the frame.
  8. That is awesome! Now I have to find another Fairlane kit! The one I have is being built for my wife
  9. So I saw this thread and ended up buying a kit today because .. well these old fords are awesome trucks! Plus your truck your doing is beautiful! That paint is fantastic @gtx6970
  10. So hit my favorite shop in Vegas, Hobby Island .. small but I like it. I had to stock up on my blue paint so got some variety, will have to ship the Spray home via Fed Ex or UPS though cuz I can't fly it home. The bottles will go under plane. I may grab some nippers and knife, and glue and primer and a few more colors to work on something in the evenings while I am in Vegas. One of the benefits of work travel, I get to buy stuff from all over the US lol.
  11. Fantastic work!!
  12. That is cool as heck!! Great job!
  13. It's not me and I would never sit on kits!
  14. Those are some great finds!! I am hoping later today to add a couple more pics here of what I get.
  15. Thank you Jim!
  16. Thanks everyone! It was my first time dechroming too so I was very thrilled with the paint on the bumpers and wheels. I don't hate it, but I do think with some weathering, it will help round it out.
  17. Welcome! Neat kit!
