    rust

    Just one cause I have the same warped mind as Tom and his rusty Vette ..
  2. Sounds like you should get Don Yost's video "The Art of Airbrushing Show Quality Model Cars" I know many here will swear by Don's advice. He also swears by using enamels thinned with lacquer thinner. As far as a compressor with a holding tank, you should read this recent post here about them
  3. Every detail on or in that trailer is perfectly weathered and built!
  4. Think I did it just for for those comments I did make a story for why a fiberglass pickup would be showing rust at start of the Under Glass
  5. Liking this one.. ))
  6. That certainly did lump up the G35 .. but exactly what some Japanese speed shop might do .. looks perfect for that .. including the paint job!
  7. Yes was on my college turntable I don't remember how many times in the early '70 ... actually, I don't remember much at all from back then
  8. ping ... this has been in the works almost as long as my G35! ... was searching something and came back on this thread ... but, now Chuck is doing truck articles for MCM so a grant him time's short ... and articles have been wonderful.
  9. Oh yes, post the G35! Not a one I've ever seen posted here and I can't get enough of them ... I had a G35 and G37. Guess I should get on to finish my build.. eheh
  10. The detail looks astonishing on this and I can pretend this is 1/24 to fit my preferred scale ...just keep your fingers out of the photos, Harry.
  11. This does look interesting. All it needs now is to replace the ugly old Infiniti lower body with one from an Infiniti G. Infinity never got it until the G's were introduced and those they got the roof right .. along with everything else! That Ferarri roof is not far off from the G35 below. I hope you'll do some mild customizing on the body .. or that might be against your whole premise with this build ..
  12. hehe thanks .. and I DO love how yor Merc is looking.. that green is killer!
  13. I got reminded of my Dad's '92 Crown Vic I converted from a '97 cop car kit after seeing one here.. It's still in progress waiting for a repaint.
  14. Please fix the title .. this is a Revell kit, not AMT. Had my hopes up for an oldie build eheh
  15. I sometimes forget how "knock your socks off" factory vehicles were in the Custom days .. this Desoto is gorgeous! .. a great build!
  16. This is my wife's first Subaru Legacy wagon .. 1991 Her '95 Legacy is almost done .. ehhe And my first car, a 1951 Plymouth 4-door isn't even close as this is a '50 Plymouth to be converted My Merc Woody is getting there but but wood needs work ..
  17. That is a great looking highboy .. and a wonderful build!
  18. Thanks, Michael. I found this Dremel rubber wheel. Looks small compared to what lodged in my head, but seems made for this use. Being Jeweler's tools, this may be closer. Do any of these look like what you use? I'd really like to try this.
  19. Just don't do the "wet coat" after a grape Popsicle ...
  20. Welcome to the forum. Think you'll like putting something you built .. and to your own specifications .. up on shelf next to those mass produced models. There IS a diecast section here too.
  21. That's interesting .. the soft rubber wheel dressing of the ends. Could you be more specific with a photo and exactly what wheel? The rubber wheel doesn't get cut to shreds doing this?
  22. Very nice job . the weathering looks like all th ebugs I remember from back when!
  23. THAT it is! I was bugged that I couldn't put a link to where this tool can be had .. so here it is .. Micro Mark has a similar one that mounts on the bench Etsy this is very much like mine above And a similar one with a measuring gauge for the tube length
