Although I hadn't ordered from them before, I had been at the store and I think the guy it's a nice one. About price, I think Rollmodels.com have the best price on them. But, if you are looking for the Lacquer Mr. Color paint impossible to get here in the states, try Rainbowten.com in Japan. Each 10ml jar is about $1 and you can paint a whole model easily with that. I'm sending here an example of my Hasegawa Lamborghini Miura, painted with Lacquer Mr. Color Super Italian Red. Simon Rivera

Anybody on the board use Mr. Hobby Cement?
simonr replied to RDean58's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Oh my friend you're a lucky guy!....Although I have that kind of cement on my desk for the last 10 years, I hadn't use it, but...I have had the best experience with ANY, and I mean, ANY, product from Gunze Sangyo. Also try the primers and the acrylics. The only products I guess Tamiya do better than the Gunzes, are the masking tapes, and the final wax, this is fine stuff! I don't know why there is more Tamiya reatilers than Gunze any where. At least to me, Gunze it's far superior to Tamiya. Just feel confortable to use the cement or any products from this people!

A pair of vintage racers; 289 Cobra and Porsche RS60 UPDATE
simonr replied to Zoom Zoom's topic in Model Cars
Now this perfect model has the historic look. These set of wheel really complete the correct look of the RS Spyder. Simon Rivera -
Holy ca,ca,ca,ca,cow!..This is one of you top ten indeed. A real example of how a nice & clean model should be. Not just at the top, the underneath it's also as impresive as the shiny paint job. Simon Rivera

Has anyone built the Hasegawa Miura?
simonr replied to ismaelg's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Well, here you can see some pictures of mine. As it was told by zoom zoom, it so less you can see under that louver that it doesn't worth it to spend some time to detail the upper part of the engine. A t the bottom it's another story, but, anyway there's not much to see, like a Tamiya or a Fujimi enthusiast kit. What I did was to cut the edges of that louver window and glue it at the inside of the body so I could use it as small bas to place it and it could be removable aswell. To me, just detail the underneath and leave it with the window place on. I like that look better. Here you can see what can be see of the engine. Engine from the underside. Engine pictures.

simonr replied to Zoom Zoom's topic in Model Cars
Bob: I think this is the first time I tell this, but, It's that I'm always like a lot your unique ability of take the most of a simple model like these two models and make something unique, specially the Porsche, which is my favorite make and model car subject. It's not the way you models are built if not because of the great look they have at the end. Like I told you, my respects to you! Nice shots though! Simon Rivera -

I would like to send my congrats to all GSL attendants and to the GSL organizers with Mark S. Gustavson on its head, for put together again such an impressive and awesome show. I consider myself that wether a modeler who won an award or not, just the honor and braveness of being there amog some of the world's best modelers it's a great vitory. Special thanks to all you great modelers who share you great knowledgements about modeling and most important your great friendship with me and everyone else, you guys....are the best! I hope it won't be my last GSL, since I already started to plan to GSL 2009. To all those who hadn't been here, think about the next one, I know you guys won't be dissapointed and you will think like all of us who had have such a nice and great weekend of modeling and friendship. It was so great that, the show's award ceremony ended like at noon, and I was with the Jim, Vince, Gregg Nichols and the rest of the Town of Newburgh Model Car Club checking pictures and internet via wireless with my laptop at the Hotel's lobby. It looked like we didn't wanted to stop the weekend! Again, it was a great pleasure to see again old friends, like to meet new ones. Like it can be told....GSL, the best place to be at! Adjournment to 2009! Simon Rivera
