Nice work so far! Those wheel wells are always a challenge, especially on a classic car like the RC Corvette from The Dead Pool. Really appreciate the encouragement, thanks! It is difficult knowing that one incorrectly drawn line, or cut too far, and all the prior steady work could be done for :cry...

Got the chrome foil. https://i.imgur.com/XlpCesf.jpg Made it through the PS-41 Bright Silver. Need to clean up the bumper lines a bit better still. https://i.imgur.com/HUMG65V.jpg https://i.imgur.com/3mIeACW.jpg Got the side mounts in the right spots. https://i.imgur.com/pOLXD6f.jpg Will wait until ...

Part of a balanced and nutritious breakfast.

I thought that was Hamburgers?? :P -Ws4JCXAS68 https://i.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExaWlyaHl3aGJwMmU0NWZwMzB1d3drc3pxZHhxZjVoc2prc3I1bDR4MyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/xT9KViTXjQtHCuJPSE/giphy.gif Ebay seems to be stocked up on the Green Edition, I was fortunate to get the $349 d...

I've yet to open the foil package and check it out, must be really thin to show details like that. Yes it is VERY thin. It is also a very delicate and tedious process. I've only used it to detail 1/24-25 static model cars. I think the experience has alot to do with how it is stored and handled, how...

I've used bare metal foil many times on my RC projects -- most recently on the Sand Scorcher body. Like TRX-1-3 has mentioned, it's important to use a very sharp (new) knife blade for all your cuts. Anything less and the foil will catch, wrinkle and rip. Also, the adhesive isn't very strong so it's...

Less than 3 hours from there. Hoping tomorrow is the delivery day This time of year I trust a wet fart over any shipping company :lol: It was supposed to ship yesterday, so already off to a rough start :D. If anyone has anything coming from the USPS, better hope it doesn't go through Aurora Colorad...

Can't have a proper '85 IFMAR tribute car, without the Tx. https://i.imgur.com/Qr9TH8q.jpg Airtronics XL 2P. https://i.imgur.com/09xizWU.jpg Figured I better clean the 40 years of dirt off of it. May have gotten carried away with the cleaning. https://i.imgur.com/IkUxeyv.jpg Will get this Tx back to...

Holy nostalgia trip! 👀 C64 BBS trading and vintage Mac restoration? Respect. That Mac SE looks mint now. The new build sounds beast too - that Gen 5 SSD speed is no joke. Keep geeking out! 🤘 Another vintage computer enthusiast, nice! It keeps getting worse over here with the retro computers. Finish...

Got my GE today. The USPS kept it for an extra day at my local office, presumably to beat up the box a bit longer. This came from less than 3 hours away, from Amain. https://i.imgur.com/vrhW6Cj.jpg 3 out of 4 corners smashed. https://i.imgur.com/hZVDrfs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Q66Jt29.jpg https://i....

Sure looks anodized to me, from what I can tell, thanks!

Got the windows tinted, and the aluminum drawn on. https://i.imgur.com/VfLoDip.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ODZtFrL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/SVl5rFs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/SimDlc2.jpg https://i.imgur.com/6w6NU1x.jpg Next up is the foil bumpers. That may take a bit to get right. In hindsight: I should not...

I do the like the interior plate, but the driver seat placement makes the driver need to be angled, or sitting very low. https://i.imgur.com/LyXnTOr.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8J8zUNi.jpg Looks really low from the side, like he can barely see over the wheel. :lol: https://i.imgur.com/EyJdR2h.jpg Might ...

Getting ready to dye the nylon today.
