  8. Looks Pretty cool!
  9. Bummer on the set back .....but Nice catch on the tin....or it might have been way worse! But keep rocking it will be worth it!
  10. The body will flex the most between the wheel wells....so you might have to get the firewall in first...its going to be the widest part of the chassis/interior tub... and then slide it forward and then work in the rear wheel wells
  11. Nope you did nothing wrong.....Just try it again after you get it re assembled. I usually slide the rear of the chassis in at angle at the rear wheel openings and then slide it back as far as it will go...usually the rear wheel wells will fit inside the body at that point. Then bring the chassis slowly down until the next part hits...thats usually at the firewall. gently stretch the body out to allow the firewall to go in (sometimes a flat thin blade screwdriver helps or a exacto blade even to shoe horn it in) you might have to raise up the rear of the chassis a bit help and maybe slide it front to back some also....once you get it all in you can slide it front to back to get it on the right spot. Just take your time...it will go.....and sometimes you have to put the front half of the chassis in first so if you started at the rear last time maybe try the front half this time...you will get it.
  12. Very nice! it all looks very cool the bike and wagon are perfect accents!
  13. Great job on the black trim! Looks fantastic!
  14. Looks incredible! Great job with the decals.
  15. Looks pretty dang good to me so far. Welcome to the Hobby...its great fun and this place is a wealth of info and great people more than willing to help out with any questions/problems you run into as well as finding custom parts...missing parts or if a kit even exists of a subject you want to build a replica of. As for thickening the paint back up... about the only thing you can do is add some more paint to it....or the coming out to fast you can use less presser.....But I am not sure how that works with the Aerosol set up...
  16. Looks Great Ray! I like the Yellow on it!
  17. Nice save Chris....Seems like painting .....if your not doing it every day....always gets you with something (by you I mean all of us in the first person view..lol) But its the one thing that if its not right that everyone see's first. and if its what catches their eye thats as far as their eyes go...In your case would not have been a big deal being on the underside IF it was the last thing you painted and never had to tape it off ot really worry about handling it much........but Hey you fixed it and seems like it wasnt to bad....at least it wasnt a soak in the purple pond or the easy off containment pond! Looks great now and you know its safe to keep moving forward with out having to worry about every time you touch it! Looking forward to the next update my friend!
