  1. I only brush it for really small things, but yeah it needs to be A/B for sure, I love the line.
  2. I have to agree with this , the only Testors/MM lines I use are the Metalizer lines in the jars, now, it would be a giant kick to the balls if they dropped that entire line instead of just the cans, the loss of the sprays doenst bother me, I either air brush or hand brush it on. I stopped using the Auto Lacquer line years ago, I no longer have need it, ive built all the subjects I would using that paint before I got a A/B. I know for many though it will be a loss.
  3. I too reached out to my contact I have there and ask them to give me a list of all the lines they are no longer producing.
  4. ............paint the headliner?............., oh gosh no (the underside is whatever color the body is)
  5. You had me at van I did make my own extended version for my live van, and want to do another one, but dont want to the body work again, so you have a sale if/when you do the extend length body
  6. I as well, I do batch painting .
  7. I brush paint the metalizers all time, for small parts, it works fine, like a intake manifold, yes, they are much better when A/B, I agree fully with you.
  8. Yep, there is a severe lack of 4dr kits
  9. Oh for sure, its taken me a little over three years to get to my almost 900subs.
  10. I would love to have Chris subscriber count and views for my YT channel.
  11. The photos are of a real LAPD CV that was damaged in the shootout, that is not a movie rental unit, keep in mind that were more than just one patrol units that received damage that day, I have no doubts some of them were repaired and returned to duty. The unit in the photo is a part of I think the LAPD's personal collection as it sits in a covered lot with other ex LAPD units.
  12. Yes, the Deutz tractor is coming sometime this year, I know there are a few shots of the parts trees in the Revell 2019 thread in this section( check the last couple of pages)
  13. One other thing you can do that I dont think was mentioned ( excuse me if it was) , coat the mask line with a clear coat, not a full on wet coat, but just enough to help seal the mask line.
  14. I have to echo what has been said, its a neat little kit, I have fun building mine I am not even into tractors.
  15. You are about a year and a few months late , this is rebox of the Revell Of Germany kit
  16. I did video on my Youtube channel about using Sharpie's for lights, and I did side by side comparison to clear red paint and the Sharpie looked more real and just better. Now, the clear red paint was brushed on , Id imagine that spraying /air brushing it on would yield a little bit better results but I am still giving the win to the Sharpie
  17. There are a few options for the Twinsonic bar besides the kit http://www.customsquads.com/uploads/1/0/3/6/10365684/cs_price_sheet_1-2018.pdf And the other option I hear is coming later this year .
  18. I am not sold on it appealing to younger builders, but everything else, I do agree with you on.
  19. Its nice to see 4dr's getting some love
  20. The show doenst take place in Canada , it takes place in the USA and there were episodes that took place in Ohio.
