Greatt airbrush. I love mine. You can get a handle for it, The Iwata custom grip handle fits perfectly. It's Iwata quality and solid.

I see the discussion was mostly about sanding sticks. Using nail 'polish' was learned about 30 years ago. I think for the price, it's better than ordering special model paints. I get the unusual colors, not what is already offered as model paint. My first, and still only street rod, was painted with a pearl pink. First contest got a special award, Paint Job Mostly Likely To Cause Globull Warming. "Paint Job Mostly Likely To Cause Globull Warming". Too funny Kurt. I will try and not ask any questions that doesn't pertain to what was written and not what might also be in the photo. Best I just not ask and hope somebody else does.

I thought that was the purpose of this forum, but there are various reasons to be here. It's just a matter of protocol, that's all. In certain circumstances (not related with this forum), I already know the answer, but wish to see if the politician .... oops gave it away .... knows the answer, or is blowing smoke up where the sun don't shine.

Thanks Kurt. I just have a hard time with learning the protocol as it seems to change depending on who the person is posting the original post. I've learned so much here and I'll continue to observe.

ChrisBcritter Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 (edited) Pulled the trigger on this little beauty; probably will take a while to get here from France, but I can be patient: (Images via modelli124.blogspot.com) From Hachette's Collection Auto Vintage, it's a '59 Simca Vedette Marly. I don't really collect many diecasts, but how often do you find a cool station wagon like this in 1/24 scale that hasn't been done many times before? I'm not sure how many made it to the USA, but at least one did: This was taken someplace in Louisiana in the early '60s; the plates may be U.S. Forces from Europe. My plans are for BMF, some surfboards on the roof and CA plates, of course. Edited December 27, 2018 by ChrisBcritter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safire6 Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 I got these two for myself for Christmas. When I opened the Ford GT box and saw the instructions, I had dejavu....I think I built this same kit as a kid, about 50 years ago. The Ford GT is my favorite car of all time. Love the late 60s early 70s Mustangs too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
