  1. I bought it at The Hobby Bench here in Phoenix. Its natural color is a pale green, but I don't recall any name brand associated with it. When I found it, I bought a couple of feet of it and still have quite a bit of it left, so I haven't looked for any lately. Check at Michaels or some other similar outlet, if you can't find any, let me know and I'll see if I can locate some for you here. David G.
  2. A few years ago I found some screen-mesh type of fabric at my LHS in the section where ribbons and such are sold. I painted some of this material and used it to simulate chain link mesh in the windows of my Reaver. Quite effective, if you ask me. David G.
  3. Looks like a clean, tight build- nice painting detail. Welcome to the MCM forum too! David G.
  4. The color combination looks perfect for the time period. Everything else looks great too! David G.
  5. Clean and solid! It looks great and has a good feel to it. David G.
  6. Excellent weathering, nice save, can't wait to see more. David G.
  7. Too Groovy! The interior looks great!! David G
  8. Or, like Andy said, you can file and sand away the inner portion of the grille, making it more like a 1:1 grille. There would be no need to paint the recesses black if they're not there, Here are a couple of pics of a 55 Chevy on which I filed away the back of the grille. On this shot, you can see just a glimpse of silver from one of the fan motors on the front of the radiator. From the top, you can better see how I filed away the entire back of the grille, leaving just the "eggcrate" front portion. It's just another option to explore; I hope you found the information helpful. David G.
  9. I'm sorry, what's a "lizard"? David G.
  10. There are lots of photos, but I don't understand what you're doing. I'm not familiar enough with working on diecast models to know what is being changed or modified and to what end. Thanks, David G.
