Where are all the built up kits???
martinfan5 replied to randyc's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I am all about building stock , even when I was a kid/teen , it was stock for me, and now in my 30's , its still stock for me. And in my opinion, its a bit harder if you will to build box stock compared to customs and what not. I think building box stock is like walking/running/ one should be able to build decent box stock model before moving on to customs and other types of builds, as it will help grow ones skill set, just one needs to learn how to walk before they can run. At this current time Randy, I have nothing to add to the topic at hand other than, its just one of those things in life that make you go , hmmm. -

Nice work -
While I am not in demo R2 is after, I don't really care if they are doing reissues, they are reissuing some kits that ive wanted to get, but the prices for them have been way more than the kits are worth to me. Of course, its always to nice to get new tooled kits too.

Aoshima instructions question
martinfan5 replied to Timonator's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
B is the color that you need to mix, the colors are Field grey and flat base, it says as a 2 to 1 ratio . -

I find that it varies , its really odd and I hate trying to strip TS sprays now , but I have learned is in some cases, you can use Super Clean( not the purple stuff) to strip Tamiya TS sprays, but it only if you used Tamiya primer.

Got this one finished up too, my replica of my own 1984 Olds Cutlass( aka gutlass) Supreme Brougham, so the kit is the 1985, but close enough, Paint is Olds Royal Light Blue from Scalefinishes. Wheels are from the MG-B kit from Aoshima, I used BMF on the bumpers,heck, I think it would be easier to list what I didnt BMF. Made changes to the interior, converted it to from bucket to bench seating, removed the center console, added a column shifter , Overall, meh, not really thrilled how it turned out. Not thrilled with the kit.

That there is, plenty of room , and I have watched your videos for the the US kits. That is my goal to cover the none US kits as most of the US guys focus on the American kits.
