  11. Apart from a now Three hour Model building time, I also Study in Chinese Medicine, Shoalin Wahnam Kung Fu and Shaolin Cosmos Chi Kung.
  12. Just to post my Update on what I have done so far. I have finished painting certain Parts in their Sprue, I have put at least two coats of clear on the Body, there is still more to do, And Slowly . I wet sanded the first coat of clear, now I am just waiting to return to the Hobby Lobby and get another can. Some of the Interior Detail, I decided to go with testor's Bright Red. Radiator, and Muffler Assembly. The Steering Wheel, Horns, and Other Interior and Engine Parts. The Battery, Transmission, and Fan Belt Assembly. And a few other Engine Parts, same with photo Below. I finished what I can painting the Grill and the Wheels. @ OldSchool, I did Spray the Clear on to the Chrome after I painted everything, as per suggestion. I never had an issue yet with the chrome coming apart Thankfully ! And thought you cannot see it well I decided to paint the R/T Wording too. Thanks for looking.
  13. I was lucky enough to find this on Ebay for about $200.00, I have always wanted one of these just to show, I bought this posable Figure from a seller with the box alittle busted up and Diorama missing, what is it? Something of a retro 70's favorite . Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's me Bruce Lee, and I was made by a Chinese company called Enterbay, the name of the artist who detailed me to perfection is Arnie Kim. This praticular figure is from Bruce Lee's Game of Death Film, which was Bruce's last film, and he died before it was completed. note all of the details including the Braclet worn in the film the laced up yellow shoes. And the Figure comes with a choice of different hand positions, and two weapon's the Nunchuk's and the Dragon Sword. All detailed to perfection! Yes a Stand was included in with figure as well, because I can never get him to sit in the posture I want him to . Right now I have him posed and ready to fight with Danny Insanto in a Nunchuk fight in the pagoda fight scene, a long time Student of Bruce's, Danny was included in the film, so was tall basetball star Kareem Abdul Jabbar. This figure fully completed With Diorama now sells on ebay for about $700.00 to $800.00 Dollars which is pretty much over kill. Thanks for looking .
  14. I have been watching this build, I think that you did an amazing job, and a very unique one too . I really do hope to see more of you creativity .
  15. Hey Happy Birthday and best wishes to you on your special day .
  16. What's happened to you there is the same thing that happened here in Wyoming , only difference being now is that I do have a few local hobby shops that I can go to thanks to the fact that Walmart is in the frame of mind that they cannot stock anything more than what they can, even though it is a bigger store . With this in mind, allot of Mom and Pop Shops can slowly return to buisness, so it's not all bad.
  17. three times on the inside, 5 times on the out side , I am getting dizzy . Wow, I can't even think of any models that I have had to repaint that many times, but I do understand however if the paint job isn't turning out like you planned it, cracks, dust, ghosts, uneven surfaces, are many contributars to a paint job gone bad, oh yes I have been there several times , and I expect that I will be there many more times to come. And thanks for the advice on the Magnification, I will definitely look into getting something hands free. I will keep your two questions in mind, starting now since I am working on my '68 Charger, but for the sake of the Nova, Yes I did enjoy every minute of my building it, and even enjoyed learning how to place the BMF for the first time onto it, even though Black Chrome does not stick that well . I thank you for your comment, all of you here in some way shape or form inspire me to do better, and this is what I really like about this community. Thanks again.
  18. Hi there Mike, Yes it is almost complete isn't it? I think it really looks great! Can't wait to see you finish it .
  19. I think you have a good concept going on here, keep it up .
  20. Yes that paint really suits the car, great job, it looks coated evenly.
  21. That plane is Amazing! and using the house hold Aluminum foil was brilliant! I know how tedious placing the foil must have been in order to get it straight and to get it perfect.
  22. Simply Amazing!
