    Some updates, I have been doing a lot of bodywork to get details a bit sharper and correct, (some rework also....). Roof is mounted, filling in window trim, including rounded section near the rear most pillar, cut in gas filler port. I know the roof looks flat, but I did shape a contour into it.

    No decals, and yes that paint scheme will be difficult. Maybe someone will do decals for me by the time I get to work on it.

    The Vette kits are from a maker on eBay called....The Parts Box. If you order, note that when I received my parts, they were grippy to the touch and flexible. Upon inquiry, he stated to put them in the sun for a bit, I would regulate that upon temp. I placed them out for several hours on an overcast day and seen a big improvement. I may put some out again for a time. Some layering is visible, but the parts sand up very nicely! Note the Vette is also made in larger scale, tempting!!

    Got this last week, 3d print Corvette Summer Vette

    The decals came from Germany today for my Porsche 917/10 builds, 1/12 and 1/24 scale. A few others coming Wednesday from Indycals. These are absolutely beautiful! Amazing workmanship!

    Will this be 3D printed?

    In a couple pics I found, #2 is blue and #4 is black. Here they are together, I believe.

    That should have been a great time to be watching the circuit! I have gotten into watching the GT races for the last couple of years, love some of the new cars, but sparked old interest in the older cars as well.

    New arrival this weekend

    I would do a layout, draw a reference line at the angle you want. Also draw lines for the center section and cut each piece to length. The first piece laid down will be a guide for the rest. Or, if you use CA glue and keep it away from the center section, you could let them go a little long and trim after. Also prebend the ends around the top, liquid glue will soften the pieces to help.

    That is what I did for the Flintstone Flyer builds. If you are going to use liquid glue, use it sparingly as it will want to wick to the previous piece laid down. Here you can see it(sort of) in back half of the interior, but clearly on the seats

    Got my BMW M8 GTE from Plaza Japan in like a week!

    Here's the roof and tailgate so far, working on the pillars and some body work.

    Yes, those are cool! Your digital image looks good so far!

    MCW has it, the lacquer works great!
  17. 64SS350
    Yes, I had a good experience with them.

    Thank you Mike, I'll keep that in mind. I already have a couple other versions in mind.
  20. 64SS350
    Yes, well aware of the angle, that's part of the reason I didn't start with the pickup, not enough to work with...IMO.
  21. 64SS350
    Thanks for all the interest guys! I'm fiddling with the roof currently, no pics yet.
  22. 64SS350
    MCW has one or two currently and is supposed to be developing more. But with him moving the shop from here to NC, I don't know when that will be. Keep in mind these are for airbrush use.

    I have noticed on and off for some time that I will get a notification that someone reacted to or left a comment in a post I created, but when I go to the post, their comment(s) aren't showing. 

    I just don't want to miss a question that might be asked of me and seem rude because I'm not answering.

    Thanks for your help and continued service!
