  1. I read this discussion and bought it but I haven’t gotten all the first attempt at putting chrome on, off yet lol but I did a spoon to try… I did the spoon with the included brush I give the brush a 1.2/10 but the chrome itself is great
  2. Idk if anyone can use this or not and Ive still got trimming and cleanup to do but I used a rattle can lids and cut the little inside part out and in half
  3. Honestly I’m a ford truck guy so I figured my first model should be a ford truck🤷🏻‍♂️ then the body style is my favorite one from the “fuel injection era” as I call it lol and I’m a low rider guy at heart so the bagged and bodydropped look is what I’m going for… I guess it’s somewhat from the hip honestly… I’m just doing to it somewhat what I’d do in real life I guess… I just bought the amt 1978 f100 so I’m going to try and mimic my 1:1 truck without the dents and such 🤣 so I guess that one will have inspiration it’s lowered now too
  4. That’s a freaking cool truck dude 🤘🏻🤘🏻
  5. Thanks! Figure if I get ambitious on this I’ll get all mistakes done🤣
  6. The friend I model with has had strokes and has almost no use of his right hand… he has a vice and several other body holders he uses… turns out pretty good… and he had to learn to use his left hand because he’s right handed!!! Just one of his builds not perfect but great considering!
  7. Hey guys I’m new to modeling and building an AMT lighting. I jumped into it full force and it’s slowly moving forward I molded the rear(still cleaning up) and bought a iceman v1 frame… I’m going to do away with most of the sub chassis that the model comes with and use sheet plastic to go under the body … I also had to use the “engine cover”🤣 so the height of the intake wouldn’t be a problem i have to trim out inner fender on the front still and the suspension is just mocked up not glued…any and all advice is welcome and yes I know I’m over my head for my first project 🤣🤣
