I hadn’t the faintest idea.

Excellent build of a very cool car. Very nice detailing, clean work, and great colour choices. Love the wheel choice, too. Love it!

Beautiful Merc. Nicely done.

Impressive work, Charles. Looking great.

Excellent work here. That it shaping up to be one very cool set-up.

That’s looking really good.

Bizzarini! Too cool. Anxious to see this one come together. Good looking body. Such a radical profile.

Very nice!

Check out Master Box. Most of their 1/24 figures are women, but a few dudes too. They are very well done. Nice sharp details and excellent proportions. Great company to deal with, too.

I stepped aside, to avoid it.

Welcome to the forum, Igor. It's good to have you aboard. Cheers.

Very good looking Bronco. It will be cool all decaled up.

Nicely done, Pat. I've got a couple of these Italeri Land Rovers, and thought about making one a SWB. Any issues with the conversion?

Welcome aboard, Sean. Some great looking models there. Looking forward to seeing your Chrysler Turbine. Cheers.

Welcome to the forum, Michal. Good to have you aboard.

Nice work on a classic kit. It has a cool vintage modified vibe. Well done.

Cool build of a great little racer. Nice work.

Cool! I'm watching.

That looks promising, keep us posted.

Well Peter, by virtue your own statement, it can be concluded that it is all paint. That someone may choose to call it ink is irrelevant. However, when Molotow came out and many modelers were getting wrapped around the axel over the term 'ink' (the inference being that it is specifically NOT paint), I did some research. Like you I found much ambiguity, but I kept digging until I found the information I sought. I didn't bother to commit the specifics of the definitions to memory; I didn't need to. I only wanted the answer. If your curiosity runs deep enough, you can do the digging yourself. But, it doesn't matter how you slice it, or what definitions you chose to use, Molotow is very definitely an alcohol based acrylic paint. Take away that voodoo thing it does, and it is like many other acrylics used in the hobby. Tripping over the term 'ink' is pointless as it is simply a common marketing strategy, and has very little to do the with make-up of the product. Very many products in our lives employ similar deceptive marketing strategies, but; Future is not a polish, Dove is soap, SUVs are cars, etc. Silk screening 'ink' is also paint. Artists water colours, on the other hand, are actually inks, not paint. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter what you call it. You can call it ink, or paint, or shaving cream, or spaghetti sauce. The product doesn't know or care what you call it. Every type of paint and every brand paint is unique and has specific requirements on how to handle it. Molotow, or any of the chrome paints, are no different. Using the term 'ink' is a red herring, and by virtue of its constituents, (for those who care) is technically incorrect. But there are a number of ways to define some things. Many definitions revolve around the use of the product; If you paint with it, it's paint. If you write/draw with it, it's ink. Even by this definition, for our purposes, it's paint.

Stunning build of the old Monogram kit. The paint work is lovely, accentuating those such gorgeous body lines. such a beautiful, cleanly built model. Excellent work. I have one of these on the bench as a stalled project that I hope to get back to this year. It is a surprisingly good kit, with the exception of the bonnet fit, which on mine was terrible. I got so tired of trying to make it fit, that I eventually glued it shut, and will display the engine alongside on a stand. The overall effect of your build, and the way the paint shows of the sexy lines, is what I am shooting for. If it turns out half as good as yours, I'll be happy.

Nice little Mustang. Looks good in yellow.

Love it! You have really done a fantastic job on this. I'm very impressed that you went to the trouble to make this project 'full detail'. Cool the way you individualised various bits. Overall an awesome build. One of the coolest models I've seen yet.

Cool Buick. That's one of those cars for which I am surprised there has been no decent 1/25 scale kit available. I have been trying to identify my first model car for decades, but have yet to find one like it. There are some identifying features that I remember, particularly the wheels. It was 1971 and I was five years old. It was a 1/32 scale snap-together kit, molded in robins-egg blue, and I think it was a 60s T-Bird. The un-chromed wheels were a smooth disc with a single raised line bisecting the wheel. Sometime afterwards I saw a different model built by a friend, molded in white, with the same wheels, which leads me to believe the models were part of a series that all had the same generic wheels. Still looking.
