Somebody showed something bought from Hobby Lobby a few days ago..Can't remember if its this site or another. Its on a roll and very thin and lots of chrome. Price shown on spool was $1.98 plus taxes..Unfortunately No Hobby Lobby here in Winnipeg so I can't look for it..Looked real interesting though..

Very nicely done..Especially like the picture with the darker looking red metallic..Very nice..

Which version of the 57 Chevy is this? Snap kit and where are the wheels from..Nice all over..I hear the snapper is a nice kit but I sure don't like the wheels that come with it.. -
Looks real good and color and stance are spot on..Very well done and super clean..

The stock 2 dr sedan is great, hope you get a proper bench seat and rear seat and a 383/426 wedge engine and stock wheel covers too(dog dish)..Going to be nice for sure..I owned one that was a 6 cyl and was one of many for the Internal Revenue Department..Guy put a 383 manual in it and did a BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH job..Worked on it and it was a looker..didn't import them to Canada till 1966..I had the only one (and still is in Manitoba) Looking forward to your model..

For lens you could fill the cavity with white glue(Elmer's or such) build it up..It will dry clear then you've got lens..Not with marking but you have lens//

What a beautiful model. Very nicely done and the sectioning job is fantastic.. Still looks stock but isn't..EXCELLENT work.. -
Rebuildin' a Rebuilder: AMT 41 Plymouth
moparfarmer replied to Mile High Scale Modeler's topic in WIP: Model Cars
The 41 Plymouth has got to be one of the UGLIEST cars Mopar ever produced..But seeing more on the sites lately it is starting to look good..May have to build one..This looks good..Like seeing where it is going..I think I still have one but not sure.. -
A good sanding and good primer like Duplicolor Filler primer sanded before paint would help lots..Good luck with your project..

What would YOU like to see as a model
moparfarmer replied to JeroenM3's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Before any company makes a new release from beginning to end it needs to be able to make into many different variants..A one of ISN'T going to happen and neither is a "C" body Dodge,Plymouth or Chrysler..Even though the Dodge and Plymouth could be made into police vehicles.. -
Thanks..

Sure like you T/A Challenger..I did one but it didn't have any decals in the kit..Mine became a stripe delete T/A....
-
Great entertainment gentlemen..Worth the read..Like someone said, its only toys we are arguing about..Sure they are models and lots of modelers are very picky, but like most people on the street will say they are only toys..Like the read though..I've had long time friends in our city club and clubs become NON friends over models..NOT worth the hassle..
-
Although basically the same car, but in the nose to nose picture you can tell the Chevy was more aerodynamic by the nose..Nice work on both though..

Polishing base coat before clear?
moparfarmer replied to rightrudder's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
NEVER polish before clear coat, no matter what kind of paint you use..Scuff with 1500 or 2000 then clear..Polish and wetsand the clear..be careful if you sand a metallic..Like someone says before it might show blotches or un eveness.. -
Awsome work..Hard to believe you've only been modeling for 11 months..Fantastic progress in such short time..Very well done on all them but the Jag roadster says something to me..
