how can i start building models like you guys
brett replied to jay8allday's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Ok thats pretty simple then. Pretty sure the AMT pro street nova fits under 57 chevs with little hassle providing wheeltubs 4 link and a basic cage to add to or replace. The AMT 62 impala has been released as the Mr 409 (so just find one of the super stock releases), and with a little wheelebase stretching the Revell top sportsman chassis will fit nicely under a 62 impala, the problem here being finding a wagon. As I said before ask specific questions, and some one here will be able to help you out . Theres a couple of members on the board who were or are doing drag radials, check out the resin section for Ma's resins or Shucky. -
You'd do this : Right ?

brett replied to jay8allday's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Well, you've started the right way, by asking questions, but to give the right answers we need to know the right questions (not as confusing as it sounds lol). As in what type of cars you want to build ,eg camaro super stocker, pro mod corvette, econo/altered etc. There's a huge amount of knowledge here, and we're all willing to share, so start building, start asking and soon you too will be running what you brung . Bart I tend do disagree on your clubs view a little, it depends on the club. I'm a bit younger than most in my club, and theres a few drag builders there. Several who could place very well in any international comps, took the time to teach me several (including basic ) things that seen a huge leap in my skill set. It's just a matter of finding the right one. and Jerry, follow Robs (Jantrix ) advice, master the basics clean up the mold lines sink marks etc, You'll have a much better base with which to start these killer builds. -

Wow, it looks fantastic in the pics, wish I could see it up close -
Thanks again, Vince, these originally started because a CBP was started and I thought a team of race cars would be cool. But interest seemed to fizzle out pretty fast ,so I just started my own thread in here.

Very cool (as always) Darryl. Up to your usual very high standards, I'ld hate to compete against your builds. -
Thanks guys, much appreciated . Vince, I dont have a problem with that, but you should start your own thread just to showcase your work. But as I said really don't mind. Russ, thanks very much but I think your praise may be a little high. There's some great brass chassis ( and other work ) in these forums that I couldn't hold a candle to. That said I try to improve everytime I build one so maybe I'll get there one day . That said and done I've pulled the injector hat off and am raising it up into cleaner air. Still working on ( or reworking) some decals , so progress may be a little slow for a couple of days.

Thanks guys, hoping to get some more work done on it tomorrow

You have a sickness my friend one that I could not afford ( financially ) to catch although the results sure speak for themselves. Doesn't hurt that you got a lot of talent either , Keep at it bro , we're all watching. -

Hey !!! I was gonna say that . I admit I wasnt to fussed when you were hinting at going black on it but have to admit it does look Good. Personally I think black needs a lot of chrome or graphics to bring out the body lines but again thats just my opinion and again ,it does look good -
Very cool Rob, its looking great so far. Yeah those turbo cars are tricky to plumb up arent they
-
Wow John, great work !!
-
