Re: Playtron Doberman
That model has an interesting name. I wonder if Playtron ever considered making a Poodle? Or Chihuahua?

Re: Mugen Athlete 1/8 Build
That car is beautiful inside & out. Love the purple aluminum-nums! Did this come out before HPI started offering kits with purple alloy parts?

Re: Things that irritate you
My question is, why are updates necessary? Seems every electronic device these days requires an internet connection and regular updates or they cease functioning. I'm fairly certain this issue with every damn thing needing "updates" is more about sharing whatever personal information they...

Re: Marui Hunter - My first buggy... Found one to restore :-) - and a Galaxy RS too :)
It looks like somebody tacked on a wing from a 1:14-scale buggy.
I love your rendering work, though...very impressive. I wish I could do that.

That wing looks very undersized, at least from the renderings.silvertriple wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2024 11:18 am Launched a few renderings, just for the sake to see the car complete with the new bodyshell and the rollcage

Re: Tips For Painting Headlights?
Make some stickers instead of painting the lights. I did that with some of my cars, including my Buick GN 1/12 car and a cool Ford Escort RS1800 body for a car I built for my daughter. I just found good, hi-res photos on the internet and resized them to fit the bodies, the printed them with my inkj...

Another option that's a bit off-topic as it's not about painting: Make some stickers instead of painting the lights.

Re: 1:1 car connector corrosion cleaning?
Good question, I'm interested in the replies and suggestions. With car battery terminals, you'd basically scrape away the corrosion. Could you get a strip of 400-grit sandpaper in there and go sideways across the tops & bottoms of the rows of pins, to at least physically remove the corrosion fro...

Re: Brush Painting Aluminum/Chrome Details inside Lexan - First Attempt
I always use WD-40 to remove tape residue. Try it on an inconspicuous paint area first, but I don't think WD-40 will have any effect on paint, and washes away with some dish soap and warm water.

Re: Who remembers the Chrysler Turbine car?
Fans of the 1963 Chrysler Turbine show car will find this interesting. I'm a Dodge fanatic and thought I knew all about Chargers, but I did NOT know about the 1964 Charger show car that pre-dated the first year of the first-gen Chargers. Check out the 1964 Charger concept car. Notice any similaritie...

Re: Things that irritate you
Buy a new Samsung TV and you'll quickly learn what irritates the Fawq out of me. My non-techy dad bought a new 55" Samsung "Smart TV" and couldn't get it working. After connecting everything up, connecting the TV to WiFi, the TV prompted that we needed to create an effing Samsung acco...

Re: Hi folks
Is that scheme painted on that gold RC10? It looks great, and really stands out from all the derivative copycat paint jobs out there.
