  1. He did, you have to watch CBS monday nights to see TAHM without Charlie Sheen , Ashton Kutcher is the actor that took the role over
  2. Here is a small update, getting the body painted
  3. Thats the same stuff that came with the NASCAR kits then, I remember having the trailer kit, but dont remember the tools ,hmm
  4. That is an old episode , but yes have seen it
  5. I will be having a update soon on my R34 Ive been working, well have not got much done, been spending all my time getting the paint on the body, I think I have stripped it about a half dozen time now
  6. toWhat every one else said Dave, very nice looking, cant wait tell it hit the stores
  7. I could place the monogram and the fujimi, but what came from the trailer?

  9. Started working on Eleanor's engine, will post a pic soon Here is the engine, almost done
  10. Jon, very nice work so far Shane, looking good
  11. Ryan,nice job on the chassis Mike, welcome back to CBP, I have been wanting to do this to the convertible kit as well, looking forward to see how it goes
  12. same steps as using paints for models, just make sure you use an automotive primer, as auto paint can or will be to hot for plastic .
  13. I was thinking it had to be a European release for it, as it makes no sense to sell here in the states, who in there right mind would the RoG kit when they can get the moebius kit a lot cheaper I am sure. Even then, if some one from outside the states wants one, I am sure they could get the moebius kit with shipping a lot cheaper the what the RoG kit is selling for
  14. I am a rattle can user here, with plans to get a airbrush soon, but any ways here is what I use and do. Primer- duplicolor all the way, I also use wally world cheap primer for when I am doing body and want to see how my work is doing with out wasting the good stuff. ( I want to try plasticote, but I dont have a store near me that sells it) Paint- for the most part its either Model Master lacquer or tamiya , some times I will use duplicolor automotive paint as well. I use wally world flat black, and sometimes krylon Clear - I use ether MM ultra clear coat, or testors one coat clear, I have been wanting to try other brands of clear I dont get perfect paints job from the can, I have to wetsand then polish, I have a mirco mesh set 3200-12000, I use turtle wax rubbing compond and polish, and then I use meguiars scratch x . As of late I have been skipping using the micro mesh set and I use 2000 grit paper and wet sand the I start the polishing process. You have to put in a little work to get nice and shiny paint jobs, meaning it comes down to pre painting prep work, and then during and after work to get those mirror like finishes If you click on the link in my signature line, you can see my how my paint jobs come, there are not contest worthy yet
  15. Well I am pretty sure I am not Jim, I wasnt sure who you were calling Jim, thats why I asked Danno, just for you On topic, I wonder how the sales will be on this one, an arent ROG marketed for non US markets?
  16. That happened last saturday during budwieser shootout
  17. You did a good job, I use Model Master Italian red lacquer when I do Ferrari builds
  18. Who are you calling Jim?, I think you lost your mind my friend
  19. Niko, not to late to join my friend, welcome to CBP, looking forward to seeing your build
  20. Danno, that's what I am thinking, why would any one buy it when they could get Moebius kit for half the cost.
