Are you still having this problem? I am...... I can't get beyond the first page of subforums or my profile. I click on 'view my activity' in my profile, and nothing happens.

Get yourself some of these pens, man.... They are most useful!

Thanks, Carl my friend.... I'm glad you like it! and Thank You, Dominik!

I like it....... reminds me of what the Ayala's did to the 'Wild Bird', with mimicking the front opening on the rear...

If you say so, Richard.... I did just see it happen this morning, tho... I sprayed a spare part with the aluminum, then primed it. I then put the white DupliColor on (which is a hot paint) and watched it turn pink......... I'll surely seal it before trying to paint any important parts.....

Cool.... I just saw on Amazon that you can get it in an aerosol can. This will most likely be what I do....... Thanks!

I'm working on a Thunderbird SC that's molded in red. Of course, I want to paint it white..... I've tried to seal it with aluminum paint, but when I spray the DupliColor on it, the dyes still bleed thru. I read on here about someone using ( I think it was) oven cleaner to pull the pigments from the plastic.... Does that sound right? This is the only molded-in-color kit I've had that I can't cover the dyes from... Thanks for any help!

He was also in a movie titled "Dirty Work" with Artie Lange..... One of the funniest skits he did on SNL was being a police sketch artist that couldn't draw....

Cool, glad you fellas are enjoying seeing this one! It was overcast yesterday (natural light filter) so I got a little better pic for you.....

Thanks, guys.... This was a fun build!

Thanks, guys....... This one is now under glass.

Got this one wrapped up today, Fellas! It's the full bumper Camaro kit from AMT. I've dubbed it "Camar'Oh!"........ It's pretty much box stock minus the stance, wheels, and rag top roof. I added heater hoses and battery cables under the hood, and a chain link steering wheel. The kit was a darling to build, only final fitment gave me any problems. I did a WIP of most of it. Thanks to those that followed it... So, that's it for this one! Please feel free to comment.....

"Someone Reacted" sounds like something you'd hear in a crowded elevator... It would make more sense to show who reacted to your post, not just for the poster, but for the one liking it....

I'm having the same problem.... I can't get into beyond the first page of my profile, and I'm unable to go past the first page of the subforums.... My build is on page two of the workbench forum, and I can't get to it to see if I've had any comments lately or to update it..... It's not all the time though....

That looks really good, Tom! Has more of a modern feel than just black for a graphic color.....

This is the best forum about anything, anywhere...... I've been here almost a decade, myself.

"Burning out a fuse out here alone......" Dave, I had an odd happening the last time I made a post, which was soon after the forum came back online.... When I clicked 'choose files' an empty quote box appeared. Not sure if it was just a glitch? Just thought I would let you know......

Can't wait to see how this is progressing...... What do you have in mind for paint? This one would lend itself very well to one of your awesome panel jobs....

Got the paint work done........ I thought I would need to put one more coat of clear on after yesterday's painting session, but looking at it this morning, all it needed was a wet sand and polish today. I've been trying to get pics all day of the color, but it's proving difficult to get the shade right..... Started on the foil some to see how it's gonna look. That's progress for today! Please feel free to comment.....

Thank you Carl, man.... Hopefully I can show you a paint job tomorrow! I worked on it some today, need to wet sand my clear and put one more coat of clear on......

T is for Trolling.......

I've been steady at it for a couple of days..... I've almost completed the interior. Still need to paint the front seats. The tan is vinyl dye from DupliColor, the carpet and "woodgrain" stuff is craft paint.... Also pretty much done with the chassis..... Still need the rear wheels attached. I wanted a color that would look kinda stock but not, I ended up with Deep Jewel Green Metallic. Hopefully I'll be able to get a better finish on the body than I did on the floor pan.... That's where we are today! Hopefully the nice weather we've been having here will last a while longer and I can get the body painted up in the next few days..... Thanks for looking, and comment freely....

Thanks, Mike and Tom! The top is in a permanent "open" position since it's been soaked in diluted glue.... I had planned to just attach it to the roof, it should look the part just fine......

Got a little more progress on this....... The body and associated parts are in final primer. This is Rustoleum 2X gray primer, it will make a really good foundation for the DupliColor I plan on using.... Thanks for looking in, and please do comment!
