  1. Looking good, what car are you doing again? I have a bad memory
  2. Thanks guys, it was fun doing these, now I just need find one to do for the UK version.
  3. Wayne, great job on detailing the center console, I have something you might want to use PM sent
  4. I never have luck with masking, good luck. Mike, does the convertible chassis use metal axles ?
  5. Here are three cars used on a episode of TopGear US, the show had the host driving the new versions of these cars, but had to do a drag race with the originals ones. I built them as close to the ones on the show as I could, they didnt show a lot of cars for very long. They are are built OOB, the Boss 302 wheels came from one of the newer Mustangs kits, and on side not, I suck at using BMF. I broke the passenger side mirror for the challenger as well.
  6. Shiny, looks good, I will be honest, I am not a fan of the color, but you are doing a good job, the Convertible chassis looks like its nicely detailed for a one piece
  7. The US version is getting better, its still not anywhere as good or ever will be as the UK version, they copy a lot of what the UK version has done in the way of challenges .
  8. Well I have finished up this cars, next up is to get pics taken of them
  9. I just did a real quick search, the cheapest Lindberg chevelle is going for $16 plus shipping on ebay, that seller is just nuts, I think I am going to ask why he wants so much for his kit
  10. Looking good, going for the worn look for the interior, the six chargers I built, I think I broke half of the shifters either trying to get the of the tree, or putting them on the dash.
  11. Bill, I am not trying to give wrong info, I was just passing it along that I have read people on here and a website dedicated to using future on models thinning it. I have used future as barrier , and it does work great, I have had problems with primer sealers crazing the plastic.
  12. Yes and no, I know for me, I would rather be inside working on models during the summer time here in the valley then outside baking
  13. Looking good, those GT paint schemes are a lot different, and color full, I have to admit, what is it?
  14. Nah, three is ok, just dont go past that, you will be ok
  15. Very well written Art, I think you hit the nail on the head with
  16. Primer sealers also can work as well, I have read that shooting the future through the Air brush can be tricky, I use foam brushes , and it takes a minute or two to appy the future to a body. I have heard of thinning it
  17. You need to primer it before you paint.
  18. Can some one share how Romell defined it?, just curious, as I missed that and people disagreeing with him
  19. I did not know that many of them were made, and I can barley find a few of them, I have been wanting to get one.
  20. Its all scratch built using evergreen sheet styrene, the only things on the trailer that I didn't make are the wheels and tires. I tried to scale it at 1/24th
  21. Whats the trunk space like?, and 31 mpg not bad either
  22. Virgil, I know, its sad how half the cars do look like each other, I do miss the days where cars had their own looks to them, and you could tell them apart , now you have to read the name plate to see what it is. I am trying to a way to post the map in the thread still
