  1. I'm not a big GM guy,but I do have a soft spot for Corvairs.Kinda wish one was on there,I think Jim will agree with me on that.
  2. I was working on my Sunbeam Tiger this after noon and decided to tape it off and shoot the last color,black.Once it dried I went and removed the tape to find this!I really like the look I have achieved with the masking and I know why it bled,I used cheap tape that hasn't worked before,stupid moment. Is there any way to fix it?I can't touch up the orange without having to re-mask and airbrush the whole thing again because it's two different paints.
  3. Stopped at the Summit racing SUPER MEGA STORE THING in Georgia on the way back from vacation and gazed at all the cool stuff there,if your in the area check it out.Also got a rat fink Tee.
  4. You are a true master of Alclad,I mess it up every time I think about it
  5. I haven't seen Red Green in forever!I love that show, a shame it never took of to big stateside.
  6. If there were vintage cars introduced or re-introduced I might snap and buy one of those.But the conclusion we have all come to is that you can't please everyone.
  7. I know this has been said before but,Man I love your paintwork.
  8. Kinda wana build the Challenger stock car,don't know or care who drives it,it just looked sweet.
  9. Got it in the mail today,pretty excited about it.Opened it up and "Whoa,that's A LOT of parts!" is the first thing that comes to mind.I will need to do something about the fuel injector pipes and the all the other chrome pipes.
  10. Anything I see on the street or in a book/mag/website that makes me go "Now that's cool".
  11. Reading about that truck was pretty cool,I would like to build it but put the showboat in it instead of the other dragster,but the historians wouldn't like it.
  12. There's a problem,It's to shiny!I've gone blind!
  13. Well the only problem is that tamiya kit is a tad bit expensive,lol,
  14. I'm gonna be the first to say his mileage must be gawd awful.
  15. You have the bug,that's how it happened.Don't feel bad,every time I go to a show I fill the trunk of the car and empty my wallet.
  16. Here's the e-mail I got back "Good morning Austin. Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, we are unable post pictures of the honorable mentions. Regards, Juliette" I don't thing they are going to show them period.
  17. That's a pretty rare find and very desirable,If you want a firm retail value Replicas and Miniatures sells a resin version for 32.00 if I'm not mistaken.On the bay they can go any wheres from 20 to 50 bucks.
  18. I'm not sure.I contacted revell about showing the honorable mentions and they said they couldn't show their models,very strange if you ask me.
  19. Don't wana bring back a dead thread,but did you finish it?
  20. Yea I saw those and though man that would be a sweet model,then I found out it was.Curse you Mr.Teresi for making your models look so realistic!If I could compile a list of model people I want to meet in real life he would be 1st on the list.
  21. if you still haven't figured out the headlightshttp://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=61450
  22. Thanks for the advice guys,I was looking online and found a guy who completely plumbed the entire model,each engine had over 75 parts!A lot of the chrome parts he replaced with machined parts.
  23. Well I got the HOT ROD pack off of ebay last night sealed,just waiting for it to arrive now.
  24. Thanks for the overwhelming amount motivation.
  25. The Showboat and the challenger II,just got the hot rod mag double package off of the bay.Any good,they look cool.
