  1. Me Wanna!! Just brilliant that looks amazing.
  2. I recently built this kit and it went together like a dream, only problem was the wing mirrors which seemed to leave a small gap at the bottom of the pillar, so I would test fit those. Love the colour.
  3. I haven't ordered from their yet but am registered to take advantage of their reward scheme. i intend to order in a few weeks, they seem to be very up front with their delivery process and i liked that.
  4. That last one looks like it could make a great custom dash, for a 1:1, if you had the patience probably for a 1:24.
  5. It wouldn't have made a difference, they were so cheap i couldn't resist, but site i bought them from was vague on descriptions.
  6. Well it is a good job i live about an hour from the Bushmills factory.
  7. I have just ordered Fujimi's 1/24 Nissan S130 Fairlady 280Z #04012 and Nissan PGC-10 GT-R '69 1/24 #03303 today and i cannot find out if these kits are curbside or not? Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks in advance.
  8. I used to live quite close to the factory, not really my cup of tea but people say you can really feel the body flex when you push them hard.
  9. Alright, looks like you have to much there I'll take all the classic Jap stuff of ya hands for $20 and a pint of Guiness. I'll even pay the postage to Ireland. LOL
  10. Those ATS wheels are looking the best of them so far.
  11. My fingers are already relaxing at the last one, thanks.
  12. Depends what you want the rating on for design definatley 9 or 10, for frustration im going to have cutting them out its gonna be a 1 or 2 LOL. You will be held responsible for the damage i do launching my knife across the room when i tear the final cut!! I'm only joking these are looking great. My mum has one of those Robo-cutters and i'm trying to con her that she no longer needs it so i can cut out my own stencils.
  13. I have had bumps similar to what you are describing, it turns out it was paint in the air settling on the model as the spray was not as fine as it could have been and i left the model to dry in the same area i painted in.
  14. I have just started getting into airbrushing t-shirts and stuff and that is gonna be a nightmare on the old fingers cutting that badboy out, still gonna do it though. Keep em comin!
  15. Amazing interior!!! Did those parts come with the kit or are they P/E? Or are you a genius at printing well small?
  16. Love that colour, you dont see a lot of ferrari's in blue.
  17. Thank you, this site helped a lot I avoided some rookie mistakes.
  18. ok check out the pics and see what can be had from a VGA cable (the one that runs from your monitor to your CPU) just cut an old one open to see what's in it. 4 small wires (spark plug wires?) 3 large wires which turn out to be shields with smaller wires inside that can be pulled out and are the same colour (hoses of some sort and battery cable?) lots of filament wire in 2 colours and some foil that's quite thin but strong. so find your old computers and cut open those cables and see what can be recycled. Enjoy building.
  19. Thanks, it was Tamiya kit and if I'm honest I had no trouble building it there where some nice details in it like the foil decals for the wing mirrors and the option of having the fog lights or covering them. i left off the wing as i think it ruins the cars lines. Next in the firing line is a Tamiya RX7 r1 kit its already had 1st coat of primer but i want to detail the engine and trust me to pick a rotary, luckily i have some idea's and google was a great help. Will be on the workbench soon.
  20. Hi Jon yeah that's the kit, just getting parts cleaned up before primer so no worthwhile pictures yet. Cruz that's a great engine as well. Will try not to embarrass myself to much and attempt a turbo from scratch.
  21. Wow well thats one sweet looking engine, i'll be honest i don't think i am at that level yet but its some thing to aspire to. Cant wait to see the rest of it when its finished i'll be happy if mine looks half as good. Are some of those P/E parts or all scratch built?
  22. Hi All Im about to start this kit but wondered if anyone else on here had built one, point out any problems or issues and just give me idea's on detailing that rotary engine. Thanks
  23. You would have to build a movable turret with it for sure, I dont know how you would replicate the leaks though that thing was like a sieve.
  24. Lovin the size of that turbo!! Engine detail is tops on this.
  25. Love that colour, and that decal should be standard with every RWD car.
