My wifes Birthday present (well one of them)
mytricia replied to Darin Bastedo's topic in Model Cars
they both look great,but the falcon has that real flair for a lot of power in a small pkg.i would love to see under the hood! -
all 3 look like they'll be great projects.i love novas.one thing about novas and chevelles is that there is an endless list to the possibilities of things you can do with them.keep up the great work and can't wait to see more.

1966 Chevelle Wagon ProStreet Custom
mytricia replied to The Creative Explorer's topic in WIP: Model Cars
every aspect of this car is awesome-keep up the truly amazing work! -
what one thing should every kit include.i think we can all learn something from this.i think every kit should have whitewalls or redwalls<decals or inserts>if they're illustrated on the box pictures, a lot of kits show whitewalls on the box pictures but don't always give you anything to do this. marty
-
i just thought this would make an interesting thread-maybe even done before.what one thing should be omitted from every kit.i would like to see each and every kit come with separate exhaust.no molded in exhaust systems.what do you think? marty

Meditations On Paint Finishes & Colors
mytricia replied to Dr. Cranky's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
i have to get a camera<don't have one>and until then i can't post any pics.sorry guys!!i just painted lindberg's 66 chevelle s.s. with spaz stix.i used their black basecoat-their purple/green,etc... colorshift paint and their clearcoat.it needs to be polished out.point being-it,s not a donk or lo-rider, but it looks awesome.it is gonna be built very close to box stock except for a few changes.i mention all this because i got introduced to spaz stix from a model magazine.they're known for having chrome<like alclad>in an aerosol.i haven't tried it yet,but fellow modelers might want to check into there products,so far-i'm impressed.hope this helps somebody MARTY-"mytricia" -
thanks a lot guys,i really appreciate it very much. marty-mytricia

My Inspirational Model Car
mytricia replied to Romell R's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I,ve been building off/on for about 47 years.i got back into permanently about 2 years ago.i'm into it more and stronger than ever-i'll never stop now. i could do this 24 hrs. a day.i have a lot of people who inspire me.some of my strongest inspiration could be the beautiful models i see everyday.but a few people who blow me away are TIM BOYD-DAVE THIBIDEAU,<sorry about spelling> and CLAY KEMP.also the biggest inspiration of all,somebody who always supports my building is my wife PATTI <my tricia>.everyday i can't wait to build. thanks p.s. thanks to another couple people who's names i just can't remember
