SOME CURRENT ROUND 2 INFO TODAY...
martinfan5 replied to AC Norton's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
You know you could of just quoted me , of course and I agree, but that wasnt what I was personally talking about and to be honest, didnt realize it was pre painted set. I am not above using pre paint stuff just to make my life easier, nothing wrong that and YES, I am one of those persons you are referring too that can figure paint. What I was talking about, that to me, purely from a aesthetic appearance , it looks like toys, something you would use with toy cars and trucks, not plastic model kits. And that if one cares about the aesthetics , the Fujimi sets would be a much better buy, just my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. And this is simply all I was trying to say. But I understand this will not be a popular or shared opinion since it is not in favor of Round 2. Carry on. -

So about 1.5 sets if buy from Japan -
I do that too, it really is almost cheaper in many cases to simply buy a new one.

SOME CURRENT ROUND 2 INFO TODAY...
martinfan5 replied to AC Norton's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
My guess, not that you asked for it , is going by the way Round 2 likes to price their stuff, you will probably be able to purchase two Fujimi Tool Sets for the price of this tool set kit. Ive been known to be wrong at times , so there is that too. -

The coffee pot isnt really that odd if you stop and think about it for a moment, pretty much every garage has a coffee pot. -

They look like toys, and no, these are nothing close to the Fujimi set. -
I agree, for the moment, for trim BMF is still king, and believe you me, I would love to find that magic bullet that would replace having to use BMF, I would rather pound on my coconuts than use BMF , but its the only game in town when it comes to having "decent" looking chrome trim. I think the only way you might be able to use the pens for trim is to air brush it on, I do believe Ive seen one maybe two people make mention of that, but don't quote me on that.

My post was NOT implying that, it sort of seems you may feel like it does. -
I can't believe it.
martinfan5 replied to ewetwo's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I can believe it, and its very sad , but the truth is, a large portion of the builders that partake in the automotive part of the hobby are known to be cheap, probably some of the cheapest people on the planet , so the fact that they would stoop to this behavior really is not shocking. -

Decals....that I ordered in early July, its all good though, Stoney's printer took a poop , but he got a new one and took care of everyone that had open orders so it was worth the wait , tons of respect to Jason Stonerock of Stoneys Customs.
