My company offers $100 Visa gift cards if you enroll in their Wellness program...not a bad exchange for being poked in the arm with a needle and finding out just how fat I really am...lol

ANYways, I took that gift card to Hobbytown USA after work tonight and got a Revell of Germany Sauber Mercedes c9, a Revell of Germany Jaguar XK-120, a Revell Shelby Cobra, a Tamiya Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R (half price!), a bottle of Tamiya liquid cement, and a new sheet of BMF. Total was $99.12, on a $100 gift card. B)

Got this today! A model of my very first car back when I was 14 years young! This is a 1/32 scale kit from ARII.

1970 "Mine was '72" Honda Z Coup

Being it's a small car, I thought that it just might fit my 1/43 scale RC Dnanos! And from the look's of the following pictures, it just might with some clever mods!

Murcielago chassis is just barely long enough to work:

But track width too wide.

Porsche chassis width is perfect, but too short:

It look's like I'll need another Dnano chassis with a combination of parts and with an HM "high-mount" motor mount for it to fit inside the body.

This look's like it'll be a fun project!

This is what I just received yesterday from Rainbow Ten, some of these items has been long waited by me. Let's see what's in the box...

Here's the complete order, in the middle line features the Gunze Sangyo Chrome Silver Metallizer(beautifull and hard to get here in the states) and Gold Metallizer along with some Mr Color lacquers. Something that I dislike from this new series is that they no longer come with the opener tip. The large Finisher's black bottle in the rear right corner, is the tool washer to be used with the urethane clear, just in case.

From Finisher's Blue foundation(to be used under silver bodies), Pink Foundation(for Ferrari reds), White foundation, and their beautifull chrome silver.

Another great product from Finisher's, the Urethane GP-1 clear. See how it being, here:

Another great from Finisher's, the compound kit, some modelers point it to be the best compund for model cars. This a 3 step kit.

Both compound and GP-1 urethane clear, here:

Another great one and out of production for some time, now it returns under Wave brand, something positive. This is the Kosutte Gin San, it works like the metallizers. You paint the part in gloss black and then rub it to get the metallic look. I've seen it working and it's impressive. Con see it working here at 6:43:

Super Clear III from the Gunze Gundam lacquer line

DSC_0400.jpg

Gundam markers for panel lines..The GM003, it's a brown marker for red color bodies, some of the most used color on my modeling. The GM300 is the eraser pen, used to erase excesive paint or wash in panel lines after being applied.

I guess I will have enough goodies to play with my new project that is already in production, some pictures soon...
