  1. Is this going to be a shiny one ?
  2. Congrats Bryan ! You did it . You finished one and a nice one at that. We are very proud of you !!!
  3. Some kits had folding forward seats. I can't recall which ones but perhaps someone will be along to tell us.
  4. Sweet !
  5. Good job Bryan. I knew you could do it !
  6. There are some companies that off a do it yourself kit for around 100 bucks or so but the size would still be a issue. I think with the kit I saw you got 10 prints of your choice that were about 1 food square.
  7. Sweet ! I love that old kit.
  8. Looks like it will be a nice save.
  9. Here is a link to one place. WWW.hydroimaging.com
  10. I think you have it about right. You have to have a water tank deep enough to submerge your item in. The water is sprayed with a chemical that will disolve the carrier for the film. The item is then dunked at an angle until it is all under water. You then use a stick or something to swirl up any remaining 'print' before you pull up your item. It then has to dry and be cleared. Not sure of the thickness but I believe it is very thin. My worry would not be the thickness depending on what type of body you were going but rather the scale of the print. Thats why I asked about scale. There are many, many different prints from skulls to camo to diamond print to carbon fiber. Looks interesting but may not work for a scale model to well. If interested do a search for Hydro Graphics and you will find a bunch of sites. Not sure how to place a link but I will try.
