just a small update i got all the doors off... and today my uncle gave me a box of some model kits that he tried to build up but went wrong... so i went for a rumage through and found a old "impala" interior... so i thought being as this kit has no door detail i would cut the impala one up and see if it looks ok .. and this is what i came up with still very rough but looks ok i think well thanks for looking in stu

hi there all... i got my "vantasy)" in the post this morning... so i had a good look through the parts and i must say this is one wicked kit... i have decided to open the doors,side door,back doors and the hood... i know alot of people say to try to recreate the "original" hinges but i am not that well experenced yet... so i will smooth off the original ones and just do the normal inside hinges ... the colour i have chosen foe it is a "dark blue (pearl) ". i hope you all enjoy the trip as much as i will heres the door and hood off thanks for looking in stu

Rattle can + cooler air
stulee11 replied to SFC_Allen's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
i always use "rattle cans" and when i spray... before i go out to lay the coats on i use a hair dryer on low heat to slightly warm up the plastic ... then lay down the coat and bring it in and warm it up again with the hair dryer... i find doing it this way i am able to spray at -2 outside and still get a perfect shine . i am sure other people have there way of doing it but thats just my way that i find works for me lol this was done at -2 outside and as you can see the shine is really good . hope this helps you out thanks stu -
