Lamborghini Sesto Elemento Whats In Box Look
Mike Chernecki replied to martinfan5's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I agree that it is hard to tell from photos if it is carbon fiber or painted. Does matte clear diminish the effect of carbon fiber that much? Were any of the cars painted? -
Lamborghini Sesto Elemento Whats In Box Look
Mike Chernecki replied to martinfan5's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Look like another Aoshima Lamborghini to add to the list. For some close-ups of the car what the movie "Need for Speed", there is a Sesto Elemento in the race at the end of the movie. As Matt said the Carbon weave is not noticeable in photos, but it sure is noticeable in the movie. -
I am hoping they do the 1957 Ford gasser with a new tool Cammer 427 SOHC

I am a diehard chevy fan and was never a Mustang fan. Back in 2012 I was in Tampa for a week and rented 2012 Mustang Convertible. I have wanted one ever since, just can't afford one.. some day. What bugs me is in town there is a girl under 20 who owns a 2013 Boss 302 and another guy again under 20 with 2013 Shelby GT500. Must have a rich daddy.

Saw this same car a few weeks ago, it is real. Note it does have the SS hood.

I have no idea, but how about a test. Remember the old Krazy Glue commerical where a guy Krazy glued his hard hat to a steel girder on some tall building somewhere. Lets find an idiot willing to do the same test, do two tests with and without accelerator. If he falls then I guess it weakens the bond.

Sure would be nice. We are halfway there, the original issue Nova has the correct LT-1 and the latest Copo Nova has a 1970 Grille included. Two weeks ago I saw two Yenko Novas, LeMans Blue 1969 Yenko 427 and a Daytona Yellow 1970 Yenko Deuce.

Looking at the Cadillac, I would love to see a kit of Billy Gibbons Cadzilla.

Paint to Match GM Elkhart Blue
Mike Chernecki replied to MrBuick's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
If you already have an airbrush then just order the correct color from Scale Finishes and get started using the airbrush. You don't need a spray booth to start airbrushing, do it outside, in the garage, anywhere really. I have been planning to build a spray booth for 30 years and still have not got around to it. -
Can we believe the July 2016 release date on one of those photos for the Huracan, it doesn't look too far along?

Very interesting, cool looking car. Have you thought about putting the batteries in a display base and running the power through a contact point (brass exhaust pipe, metal suspension piece or something).

Scratches in "glass"

Do we have 4 out of 5 dentists here to recommend Colgate? I remember trying this about 20 years ago, the white toothpaste seemed to dull the finish, but the clear green? gel toothpaste worked good. -
I noticed the 1/16 1955 Nomad on the steven's international list. I sure hope they bring out the 1/16 1957 Nomad, that one has been hard to find.

Have you tried to fit a larger tire on real Chevy II, not much room back there for a bigger tire like the slick. -

"Wood Grain" Decals
Mike Chernecki replied to 69NovaYenko's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Are you referring to these from Uschi van der Rosten? http://www.uschivdr.com/products-in-detail/woodgrain-trucker-s-delight-burl-woodgrain-decals/ -
All depends on the color, I have sprayed colors that cover great and get the desired effect in 2 coats. Others are very translucent and may take 4, 5, 6 ..... or more coats to get full coverage. This is a darker blue, so it should be fine. I recently painted a 2013 Boss 302 with Scale Finishes Gotta Have It Green and used less than a quarter of the 2oz bottle. For air pressure you need to test your setup to get the best results, could be anywhere between 20-30psi. I use an Iwata HP-C plus gravity feed and get best results at 27psi.
