Update on a couple builds. Applied some paint to the 210 Skyline components. Finally applied the clear on the LBWK Lambo Huracan. Definitely will need a wet sand and polish.

Dreaded Orange Peel
Cool Hand replied to TransAmMike's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Using a fan cap requires more psi. Iwata HP-TH fan cap requires a minimum of 30psi to atomize proper. -
Like the cross over of styles. And you still got those mad skillz coming up with unique builds. Well done.

Dreaded Orange Peel
Cool Hand replied to TransAmMike's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
The 62 Bel-Air pictured, does not have a clear coat its just polished Tamiya TS-14 Black. When I do use clear this is what I use. Thinned 1:1.5 with Mr Color levelling thinner and shot through a Iwata HP-TH .5 fan cap at 35psi This is straight from the airbrush finish, has very fine orange peel that is easily wet sand and polished out. Below the right side just after wet sanding with 6000, 8000, 10000 God Hand Kami-Yasu sanding sponge. Also use 6000, 8000 Mr Laplos polishing cloth. -
December Parts Box Build - a little Lincoln hot rod!
Cool Hand replied to OldNYJim's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Shaping up to be a cool little hot rod, Could almost call it a show rod as it has that styling to it -
Appreciate all the replies and comments.

Another JDM build im currently working on that is inspired by a well known TV series car. Nothing serious and not concerned about scale accuracy, just a fun build that all about the visual. Again a modified 77 Nissan Skyline C210.

Cheers mate. Dont know if I call it a pro street, inspiration is from Fast and Furious Dom's Charger and Aussie burnout cars. So I probably say its a JDM burnout car. 77 Nissan Skyline C210.

Ive purchased from them multiple times. Very reliable with excellent customer relations. -
Completed this awhile ago, just never got around to posting it here. What an excellent kit, thoroughly enjoyed building it, assembly was straight forward with no issue's. Not really into Gassers. But I really like how this build turned out, especially the SMS paint. Thanks to Tim Boyd for his preview and review of this kit as thats what convinced me to invest in a couple kits. Pretty much oob, I just lowered the stance, added plug wires. Wip pics can be found here

Not factory correct. But I recommend this, thin with MLT 1:1.5 and if applied correctly it will not need a clear coat.

Is it a solid colour or pearl, metallic ??

X2 Been using Imgur for 6 years, uploaded 3000 images. Never had any real problems, they sort issue's out with the site reasonably quick. I find it a very reliable site for storing and hosting pics for free.
