I love that show,great job on the Elky,both on them.

Ok thanks guys for the advise.I'm pretty sure I can tape off the black and redo the white.Now what is the gassout time for duplicolor clear so I don't make this worse then it is.

Great build,watching this one be buit in in the workbench section was really cool.I bet I wouldn't have noticed all the things you did to make this correct.Great job.

I used Tamiya thinner and nothing else to thin Tamiya paints.I have found that the 2:1 ratio works best.The reason I applied clear is I didn't want to risk a bleedthrough As I did with this model Im assuming that the clear and tape mixing was my problem.Next time I wouln't do that.Now is there a way to fix my white without striping the black?

I think I may have left it on there too long? I was on there for about 5 days.The white was painted over a white dupicolor primer.Two coats of thinned Tamiya paint and then taped off four days later.After a weeks worth of work on the black I removed the tape tonight.Tape was applied in regular conditions without heat.I did spary a light coat of Clear to try and prevent bleeding.

While I was removing the Tamiya tape off of my Hudson tonight I noticed that the tape (I think) did this Nasty mess to my paint job.Both paints are Taiya acrylic colors and the black has a dupli-color clear on it.The black is just fine,it is one of my best black paint jobs,but the white is terrible.Is there any other way then a bath in LAs to save it?I have a show in two weeks and the only thing left on this model is the Paint of course.PLEASE any tips are welcome.

Looks very nice.

Molly Hatchet?Or is this something entirely different?

I usally prep my bodies for primer with a nice buffing of toothpaste,that and it smell nice! Here where I found out about it.http://www.italianhorses.net/Tutorials/Primer/primer.htm Its a little past halfway down the page.

I like where your going with this.

Thats to cool,what did you make the bags for the letters out of?
