Evil Appetite

Was it Pro Built?

To say this movie was bad..is an understatement lol Bad movies can be fun to watch though and I catch this one whenever it's on the tube!

jeez... http://www.ebay.ca/itm/PRO-BUILT-TROUBLE-MAKER-8283-8300-FUNNY-CAR-DRAGSTER-/230723201116?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35b82ca85c

Thanks Art!

I hit every thrift store while i'm out doing whatever. As I've said before. I've paid less than$5 for kits that others sell for up to $100 on eBay. One time I almost told the guy that.. I thought twice and bit my tongue

I usually run it under warm water and lightly scrub with a soft bristled toothbrush or a fine micro brush if i have any clean ones. Best thing is to get it out right away, dont set it down and plan to do it later. After your done the section, run your toothpick or micro brush along the panel line.

Art...could you link your FB page please?

Hey that looks great! I have 2 of those kits, never realised they could look that good!

Mod positions usually are.Most will question your actions, and everyone thinks they can do it better. Back on topic though, I have a few hundred kits I know I wont build. i wouldnt mind a Good/Bad list myself..It would be convenient.

Just so you ppl know..the 'evil' one, was NOT me

If you're referring to the Cuda...If i remember correctly the chassis was blue. There are afew videos of it on You Tube. one of them is a walk-around while it's on the trailer. There's a nice shot of the chassis from behind

Dude, If I didnt know any better, I'd think that baby was real! BTW...I think I saw you on Hot Rod TV afew days ago!

Mold seams on the 55 Sportsman kits really bum me out..thats a real pain...boot would be a nice change!

Wow..incredible stuff. I've never used PE parts that are that complicated (it seems anyway)...I'm thinking of buying the Pro Sportsman 4 Link especially...are there instructions for assembly? Or would it be pretty much a no brainer even for a noob?

I would LOVE to have a few choices of 1/16 FC/Rails . I have never built one..but thats only because I refuse to pay for a kit that some guy thinks is a commodity. Revell..bring it on..please!

I agree...I've been browsing the General and How Do I sections from beginning to end over the last few days. I noticed quite a few topics named Need Help..How Do I... and others alonng those lines. 1 or 2 were even unanswered which didnt suprise me. There was even one asking for help..cant remember for what..but they referenced a pic of the kit they were working on that they hadnt even taken and posted yet!

How do you guys shri nk this stuff aroundheaders with scratch built aluminum tubing collectors? I've tried a hair dryer...not enough heat. I've tried a bic lighter from below..at a distance of course. But still..we all know what happens to plastic when it gets too hot! I cant seem to shrink this stuff...please..any tips would be greatly appreciated!

If this vans a rockin!! heheh man thats the coolest thing i've seen in a long time!

I wouldnt bother breaking it down and starting over. You'll never progress that way. When i got back into the hobby i stripped the paint off my body no less than a dozen times. I was holding myself back by doing that. Just build it the best you can, then strive to do better on the next one. With all the great advice and instruction here on this forum, I was expecting to get comparaqble results..doesnt work that way..gotta crawl before you can walk! Just my opinion

Which Number is that decal on the sheet Len, I went throught the instruction sheet with the decal and they all seem to be accounted for

that's fantastic! I've tried using liquid masking but as fas as i'm concerend it's usuelss. This is great! I have a ton of wheels I'm gonna be doing this to !

I've been taking a look through his stuff and wow...everything he's done looks incredible! Not to mention that there are many of his 1/25 bodies I'm interested in that go for the low price of $12!! Whats the quality of his product? Does he deliver promptly? Concidering the horror stories I've read here about other 'businesses', I should probably ask before I lay down my money for a bunch of his resin!

Hmmm...2-1 against...maybe i'll just stick to decanting! Thats too bad...do you guys know if they also have cans of clear with the metalflake?

Really Nice build. WHen you mentioned it might be a 2 tone...what I saw in my head was a Kiln Red/Gun Metal combo...then again my head is a little sick!

I get that streaking a lot with testors One Coat..with Fiery orange and Inca Gold. With Firey Orange though, for some odd reason...the streak disappears after a day in the oven...not with Inca Gold, it remains, not as prominent as it is when the paint is still wet, but noticable none the less. Looking forward to seeing your end product. This kit is one of the many I have planned for this year.
