Colored Sharpie markers also work really well on tail lights and marker lights.

My favorite thing to do with the plates now is apply them as decals to a couple of pieces of scrap sheet plastic, then give them a good coat of clear and trim them out. They withstand bumps a bit better than the paper does.

Looks great! Nice work.

Overall, I'd say pretty good! Only recommendations I could make would be to mask larger areas, like the panels behind the doors, so that the edges come out cleaner. Sometimes I'll even take a fine Micron pen around edges like that and touch them up. The engine compartment looks good. I'd also recommend getting some polishing pads for the paint. It's hard to get a good, shiny paint job without them.

I'm gonna have to find some of the "Sticky Barc". That would be handy for a LOT of projects.

I've got an odd question: In any of the parts packs, AMT or Revell, are there the smaller tires? Like the ones for the Capri II or the Corvair kits? It'd be nice to have for cars that had smaller tires to begin with.

I live in a 2 BR flat. The second bedroom is my hobby room. If I need to paint something, I just go to the door and paint, then bring it back in to dry.

Might also consider Citadel Miniatures Ceramite White. It's a nice satin finish. I just used it for the whitewalls on my '58 Chevy.

It looks like a bunch of different emblems stuck all over the top of the dash. If you've got a good stash of kits, what about taking castings from several of them and making resin copies to glue on?

Got a Monogram 1936 Ford Convertible. It looks like it'll be a nice kit. It's a little gluebombed, but not unrepairable. I like the slotted mags.

Poor old beastie... I hope she had a good life.

I used to use one to clean parts for office equipment, especially the ink from printer heads and tech pens. We always ran alcohol through it. Didn't seem to hurt anything on those.

Wonder if they come in denim or corduroy?

That hurts from here....

Got in an original issue AMT Model T 3in1 kit. The instructions are brown...

I've done the pearl white on the lenses and cleared. It looks okay... I prefer to cast the lenses and make clear ones, then drill out the old ones. I've used those googly eyes you can buy at craft shops to make the buckets and used foil to chrome them, then just glue the new lenses in on top.

Looks like a really nice kit.

Yeah, that lower part does look like it would be fragile. Maybe some reinforcing with strip plastic/brass/aluminum?

Looks great! My uncle used to have a few of those.

Wow, that's a complex kit! Looks great! How long does it take to warm up after you start the engine?

Looks good! I like the looks of the Simil-R kits. How was it to build up?

Those all look great!

Did I miss something?

For $1500? If you don't, I will. Still wish I hadn't passed up the Plymouth Conquest a few years ago for $500. I love those cars.

Just got in a Revell Jaguar E-Type, molded in red. There's very few sink marks on this one. The only thing I can see wrong as far as the shape of the nose is just the shape of the headlight openings is wrong.
