  1. Oh boy, what a great bunch of pure-eye-candy pics. Thanks you, it's made my morning.
  2. Yes, go with Gatorboard, and also use acrylics from the craft store for paint.
  3. Good replica. Thanks for sharing.
  4. Well, Donn, I blame you for this. I am in the process of painting my fifth body using your method this week! Wait until you see what I got cooking . . . I'm in love with this system of the enamel mixed with lacquer. :wub:
  5. Well, having tried most paint lines by now, I am once again in love with enamel mixed with cheap lacquer thinner . . . it gives you an amazing in scale and deep shine, and if you cut and buff, it becomes a mirror.
  6. I tend not to just in case I need to get back in there to fix or add something . . .
  7. I learned long ago that the worst thing that can happen while you are in the middle of a killer paint job is to run out of pressure. I agree, go with a cheap compressor, it's you best bet to start out with. I love my Iwata Sprint Jet!
  8. I like the way this one is headed.
  9. Well, if you sell it, you'll probably get a good price for it. Lots of people looking for that one.
  10. Great styling cues I'm getting from your builds. Thank you for sharing.
  11. Can't wait for the next installment.
  12. Individual display cases up on shelves. Harry, I've been meaning to looking into getting a couple of those. How many models do you think will fit into one?
  13. Gorgeous. That's inspiring me to stay on the shiny side of painting models. Keep 'em coming.
  14. Another beautiful model. Excellent.
  15. You do some killer paint jobs. I'm wondering if you could describe your process, tools, paint systems, etc . . . if you don't mind.
  16. One word: GORGEOUSl Love it.
  17. Wonderful. Yes, I am happy to note the 66 Nova chassis goes in well with the 69-72. This is all very exciting and new for Doctor Cranky!
  18. You will love the airbrush. Remember, it's not easy at first, bu the more you practice the better at it you will get . . .congrats.
  19. There should be more cars done with snow on them, the way military builders do tanks and AFVs.
  20. No, this is mostly about building bases, scenes, and small dioramas for your models. Believe me, you will find something in it you will want to build . . .
  21. I gotta go check my local Hobby Lobby and see if they have more. I already bought the ones they had at Hobby Town.
  22. I'm willing to bet it would fit under one of these . . . I love this vehicle.
