  1. Done well mate, look forward to seeing the panel van build.
  2. I was having same problems as everyone else, but can now confirm using the http does solve the issues. Using Windows 11 and Chrome.
  3. Finally have a progress update with this build. Got some colour and clear applied to the body and started painting all the other parts. Paint is from one of the other suppliers here in Australia.
  4. Good to see a progress update Brock, keep at it mate.

  6. And another build ive been working on, Holden HQ sedan Street Machine. Also seen else where in the mock up thread.
  7. Holden Panel Van ive been working on that has been seen else where in the mock up thread.
  8. Ha ha, interesting idea for a thread. I do the same always testing on spoons first. To check the colour and to dial in the air pressure and airbrush. Also to get a feel for how the pearls layer up with each coat.
  9. Been a minute, applied some colour to the HQ Kingswood Lowrider.
  10. Squirrel cage fan ??
  11. Just checking how the wheels look whilst preparing body.
  12. Like I mentioned if you do a google image search for Tamiya Mica Blue, you will find many examples showing how different base coats can change the tone from light to dark. This thread is a good example, which I found in a search. https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/24632-help-on-paint-color/
  13. Very happy to have another Australian kit available, How could I not slam it on some Pegasus wire wheels
  14. A few Tamiya options that are close to the 1:1 example you posted. TS-64 Dark Mica Blue. TS-50 Mica Blue over black base. TS-51 Racing Blue over a black base. A google image search of above colors will show examples.
  15. Something different. New release from DDA collectibles. Supposedly going to be released as a plastic kit Q1 next year. 1:24 Scale.
  16. Excellent clean build, I like it. Good job with all the detailing. Nailed the style perfectly. Its the first custom slammed blown version I have seen built oob, certainly great inspiration for other's.
  17. The start of another Holden HQ sedan Lowrider build.
  18. Really enjoyed building the Holden HQ KIngswood, So decided to start building another one. Oob with aftermarket wheel mock up, needs to be lowered it a bit.
  19. Great to see someone outside of Australia building a HQ kit. Shaping up to street machine style very well so far.
  20. Few more pics of the HQ Kingswood.
  21. Thanks Nigel, something different for a change.
  22. Holden HQ Kingswood is pretty much complete, will post up some more pics sometime soon.
