chuckyr Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Hey dude, i want those decals in 1/32nd scale!
GeeBee Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 What make is that kit ? I wouldn't mind tracking one of those down !
Jim B Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 That looks like the Stevens International reissue of the AMT kit.
ARTEMIS1759 Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Sweet. Can't wait to see that one finished.
Semi Trailer Mechanic Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) Cool! If that's Tamyia Camel Yellow I've had good results w/ that. However. That Pure White is a very hard paint to use. It will run fast and each coat was transparent. I used it and had to put mist coats on it to keep from running. I mean It took over a dozen (mist) coats in over a week to paint an AMT W925 cab and hood but the results were out standing. You may want to paint a piece of scrap plastic or a glue bomb model to see if the paint will give you trouble or not. Edited November 8, 2011 by Semi Trailer Mechanic
mistermodel Posted November 9, 2011 Author Posted November 9, 2011 Scott, thanks for the tips.I've only used tamiya paint once years ago,I wanted a pink and white 56 ford and tamiya had pink.I do remember that one can was touch and go to get the paint job done.I understand yellow is difficult and should be put over silver,I have a can also.Is this true? Dave, it was reissued in 2008. Oh btw I like your youtwitface joke
