Another Dupli-Color primer question
Dave Van replied to NOBLNG's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I have been using Dupli-Color primers and paints since the 1980's without any issues. My only rule is Dupli-Color #1699 first....then any paint of any kind....even Dupli-color lacquers. Always woks for me. -
Back when I was doing resin I had thoughts of this car. I'd was going to start with a Monogram 1/24 El Camino for the A pillars forward. The rear was going to use the Monogram Chevy Citation. With work it can be done. Thanks

Hard to believe that tooling stayed in ILL and never went to China -

Our newest buddy......VLAD a Chartreux breed that we were given because his tail was crushed and thus he was not able to be shown in cat shows. It takes 3 years to reach full size, he is one year old now. This breed does not 'talk'.......so if you like quite cats!!

And builder of the Icon model 'Dodge Fever' drag car. I met Jim at NNL Toledo.....a SUPER nice guy. -
Part of the problem is pure numbers. For every McLaren F1 sold there are 20000 modern pony cars sold (Mustang, Challenger, Camaro) Even for the Vette I bet it's 100 to 1 ratio. Add that idiots can afford modern pony cars and they require no knowledge to own. I don't like banning by car type. We have two 2016 Mustangs, both well over 400hp and we don't do stupid stuff on the street. (we tore the nose off one at a open track day as it was set up to low) Doybt we'd ever attend a C&C event.....but if I wanted to I'll take my Javelin!!!! My Javelin at an event at the Greenbrier Resort......no issues at this event!! If you acted up....no invite next year!

Well Done....great colors! I like those kits....wish they'd do the two other versions.

GREAT looking build!! I like those IMSA and T/A Fords. The decals in those kits were bad for the first run, no white under the colors. Here is another Mustang with Indtcals decals for Willey! thx

Box Art Horrible?????? Uninspired.....yes. I've had a hand in creating boxart......it's a lot of work. Atlantis must want a look and they are going with it. Also they are pretty new to this automotive sector of kits. ONE of my purposed that got altered MANY more times before finalized....... -
