Dennis M Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I go threw that sometimes especially when something brakes. I put it a side & work on it again in a couple of months. Models are in our blood. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobraman Posted July 8, 2023 Author Share Posted July 8, 2023 Will need a good polishing for sure. Also, you need to turn the body over quite a bit and I managed to break of the mirror. I have both pieces drilled out so later I will pin the mirror and glue it back on . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REALLY?? ❤️❤️ Hmmm..............I was gonna hold off on buying anymore big scale kits, but this one.............I think I may just break the bank for that! Gotta see how things go in the next several months. With 3D printing taking a lot of hobby time (I can see the screen MUCH easier), I've yet to even start Agora's '61 Jag convertible, or even finish the GT40---both of which I have all the parts now. Ray, that Cobra has turned out reeeeall nice! Yes, I do remember having to turn over the one I did quite a bit. I think Agora recommends keeping the styrofoam packing it came in, and using that as sort of ledge to set the model on to keep the windshield off the surface. I put chamois cloths on the packing as I didn't quite trust that to keep it from getting scratched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
