Very nice work on this one. That's the nicest looking stock build I've seen of this kit. Very clean work. Well done.

Nice work, Brian. Good looking paint work. Well done.

Just catching up with this one. Lovely craftsmanship, Greg. And it's still one of the coolest hot rods I've seen in a long time. I really dig the whole vibe.

Another cool project, Matt. Nice work on the body seams. Do you use a torch or a soldering iron?

Now that is one wicked Pontiac. I love it, The black paint makes it look sinister. Well done, Ron. Nice rear tires on this build. Are they aftermarket?

Lovely work, Tom. Very cool replica. Nice detailing.

Looking good all foiled up.

It's coming along very nicely. I quite like the colour, and the foil makes it pop.

Wow! That's looking fantastic. I'm really digging the direction you've taken on this build.

I think a '67/68 Mustang notchback would do well, arguably the prettiest of the notchbacks. That opens up possibilities for a convertible kit as well. Maybe a Terlingua Racing T/A racer, too.

Welcome to the forum, Priscilla. Good to have you aboard. Enjoy.

Welcome to the forum, Nathan, and welcome back to the hobby.

Welcome to our little sandbox, Ian.

One of the coolest old Ford COEs I've seen yet. Great work on this one.

I love it! Very cool farm truck. Nice, clean work.

Now there's a model you don't see every day. Nice work on the Matador. It's cool to see unusual stuff.

Yup, I agree 100%. Hardware store lacquer thinner was my thinner of choice for Testors and other hobby enamels for many years.

Some very nice work here. It's coming along very nicely.

Smokey and the Bandit?

Very cool! That is exactly how I picture Hot Rod Lincoln every time I hear the song. Clearly this is before that fateful race up Grapevine Hill, as there is no damage from the fenders clicking the guardrail posts. Nice work on this build, and congrats on getting another one completed.

My favourite of the BMW Films series.

That is a Vanwall F1 car, likely from 1958, the year Vanwall won the constructors championship.

Nice work on that old kit. That's one fine looking Galaxie. Nicely done.

I haven't tried hardeners, though as mentioned, time for enamels to gas-out is usually not an issue on my bench. Besides, most of my painting is now done in lacquer. There are others on the forum that do use enamel hardeners with success. One of the hobby specialist paint shops (MCW?) market a hardener formulated for their enamel line.
