  1. Looks great Bill and thanks for sharing your expertise. The new one looks about like a 1967 Buick Skylark.
  2. Thanks for the kind words. Russ - Novus works for me followed by a coat of Model Car Wax.
  3. Look comfy Nick. That could be a really great place to build models. The only thing I don't like is the American flag under the Canadian flag and then you have a minor flag above both of them. I know nothing about Canada law/customs but here in the United States, nothing flies above the American flag - NOTHING!!
  4. Here's some pics of a Nova I just completed. Sprayed with HOK cobalt blue pearl w/Plasticoat clear then finished with Novus #2, #1, and then Model Car Wax. Flocked the interior, Pegasus wheels and disc brakes (drilled out), polished aluminum exhaust. Finished with my signature Vietnam Veteran plate. Hope you like it.
  5. I picked up a copy at the LHS yesterday. Nice issue but some of the cars/trucks were so good that they needed more pics and more information about them. Haven't done a subscrition yet because I'm afraid of the condition it might come in. Additionally, the issue is about 2 months late. If I were paying for a subscription, I'd want it delivered in pristine condition every month like clockwork.
  6. Beautiful build. The paint is lucious.
  7. Congratulations. The sex doesn't matter - need to have Mom and the baby healthy.
  8. Bob is using the friends feature as a way to keep track of the people he's traded with. That's a good idea and I wish he would have thought of it earlier. I can't remember who I've traded with - if we have, would you please remind me? Thanks.
  9. A few people have told me they want to be my friend. When I look at my friends list, it says "PENDING APPROVAL". So how do I go about approving?
  10. I thought you posted pics of a real truck. Looking great!
  11. Very nicely done. Where are the rear wheels & tires from? I gotta get some of them.
  12. Hey Harry - maybe all that brass is why somebody invented Brasso.
  13. Terrific looking Cougar.
  14. Is that green design paint? Tape? Vinyl stencil? I like it.
  15. Good looking Ghia. Is it me? All your pics (your other posts as well) look a little blurry to me.
  16. The whole dio looks great - but especially the water! You did good.
  17. Model Car Wax - The Treatment is the only way to go. I usually start out with Novus #2 before the BMF. Then use Novus #1. When the build is complete, I do a coat of Model Car Wax.
  18. I use only Plast-i-cote primers - sandable and the heavier filler kinds in grey or white.
  19. Get Donn Yost's painting DVD and your problem will disappear.
  20. I like shiny paint but your Stude looks excellent.
  21. Gorgeous build. I'm going to remeber it just in case Harry posts it in "Real or Model" some day.
  22. Looks very good. Too bad you bought a whole kit. I have several Fiat bodies in the shop.
  23. Saw the first pic and thought "No way is this a model". The 1:1 is real nice and so is the kit you built.
