Never stop with the tips and tricks brother. I feel like some of the other channels just glide right past the hardest parts and go straight for the amazing results which of some of us may not be able to get to. Plus you,re "non-professional, un polished, raw" approach is most welcoming!
If they ain't checking these videos....their missing out on some great Tips. I've been building for Years and Still learn something. Just wish I could still do it
I really appreciate the tire lettering decal tip. Toning it down with that thinned black takes away the "toy" affect and does make it appear more realistic. I'll be doing this on all my future builds with tire lettering. Thank you for sharing. Awesome!
I do like your tips video. Would be cool if you could put up more of them. Thanks
Im always open for tip suggestion
@@TheLukaCeeChannel I would like to see some videos for high performance/pro mod/pro street fuel setups. Building a rat rod racer at the moment and need some help/tips
Nice Tip with the rollbar. I was searching for something like that because my next project has a rollbar and i want it too look a little bit more realistic. And the Tip with the wires is awesome. The most cars have batteries but without wires. That's a nice tip. Thank you for that. 👍 Greets from Germany.
Doing the flares on the Porsche was very impressive. I'll have to try that someday.
Thanks for the roll bar padding tip. I've got a Dale Earnhardt diecast model by Action that already had a little detail to it but I have been adding more detail to make it look more like the real car. One example is, the interior tub, roll cage, dash, and seat were orange and looked too much like a toy, and those features were all red in the real car, so, I took it all apart, removed the roll cage using a dremel to drill out the heat welds to remove the cage from the floor of the interior tub. I have painted everything red that was red in the real car and painted the dash and panel under the rear window black. I even added some red dial needles to the gauges. Anyhoo, the roll cage didn't have wider parts simulating padding so I just painted those areas black but I just wasn't satisfied with that. I am glad that I came across this video and I have some 1/8 shrink tubing and I am going to try to make some padding for the roll cage.
Thanks for the tip!!!
Hey I tried it and it worked great!!! I cut the end off of a q-tip and put the tubing on the stick part and used a lighter to shrink it down and it was the perfect size for the roll cage bars in my model, got a few more pieces to do. Really makes the roll cage look very realistic!!!
The rollcage padding was a great trick / tip. I can see myself using that in a couple of situations. Thanks for the great videos.
Keep doing the vintage nascar stuff I love it
More in the works
I like that padding tip. I'll jump in with that one.
woyy funtastic and goodjobs custom
Definitely do not stop doing this, Luka, & stop looking at the analytics... it'll send you crazy! Great video as always
You Keep em Coming n I'll Keep Watching n Learning Luka Cee, thanks for Sharing n God Bless All.

hey Luka, just gotta say I agree with the posts I read below. I enjoy all vids you do. There are not enough hours in the day to watch everything I'd like. But I enjoy and appreciate your tips as a builder myself.

Great tips! That decal water looks almost drinkable lol! Would your sell any of your MPC Monza kits. Lol if I don't ask the answer would be no anyway lo!l Thanks again for the quality!
Hey Luca.. If you're reading this? You should come up with a DVD with all your tips and shows on it dot-dot-dot
great tips on making rollcage padding iam going to do that on a nascar build i like the old nascarcar modelsfrom the 80
I think you should continue to do these kinds of videos Luka!
It's ALWAYS a learning experience. Something can be taken
from every one of your videos. I can't tell you how much I've
learned? Thanks, keep on building!
Hey...I've been looking at a lot of videos of modeling...and I really getting interested in this hobby..not sure where to start..any thoughts???
Thanks for the tips on the wheel wells...n ur completely accurate in saying because it was Porsche n not a stock car I skipped right thru it....SHAME!
Hi Luka, Just have started watching your awesome videos and re-starting my builds. Sure could use your help in finding out where I can get Cragar Mags and the awesome Tires Stickers. Wanting to duplicate my old rods I used to own. Jay
Hey man great videos I’ve watched quite a few of them. I was wondering where you buy custom drag wheels and tires ? Also what’s a good recommendation for paint ?
Dude I see you have a couple of Pro Stock Camaro kits behind your head..I'm into drag racing kits...I would like to know would you be willing to sale one?
sweet 69 chevelle love this stuff building models since a lil kdder im a member of the fools club for as as long as i can remember free lifetime membship here gooder stuff dou want a 164 and a 124 just like that inspiration alround thanks for sharin scooter now what color i dont know factor guess mayge a criss cross shade of green smiley face hahaha
Hey Luka, I’m a group member of the fb page and I was wondering any tips on how to do the cigarette foil for the interior. I’m trying it right now I’m having some issues. I’m using Elmers white glue to hold it down to the body but I keep tearing it. Any tips would be very much appreciated.
Nice vid dude! Nice tip about heat shrink, definitely gonna use it. Feel free to do more tips, I am about to do a rally car model, so I could use any small trick I could find. There is not much tutorials about rally cars, I guess not much rally lovers around....
Thanks, and keep up!
I get spoils of project wire from Radio Shack in red, black and white, sometimes I can find light blue as well. It’s the same gauge as the detail master, probably where they get it from.
Nice job, Luka! The tire tip is really cool. Anything to add more realism to the finished build is good.
Why is 1/12 scale models so expensive?, when there only twice the size if 1/25, it should be twice the price, but they start at 150 to thousands
Keep going buddy you're doing awesome hope to see you another one
Hi Luka looking for small pro street tires not drag tires. For the rear building a 59 Chevy Impala pro touring car are there any kits with smaller rear tires. Width isn't the problem it's the height of the tire . 59 Impala doesn't have a lot of room top to bottom. Most pro street kits have the tall tires. I used to use tires from monogram world of outlaws dirt track tires. But you have to get 2 kits. Because the tires are staggered.so you need 2 kits to get a pair for the rear. Can you help. Chester in Denver
Nice segue music Ozzy Osborne -little dolls 👍 killer tips bro thank you ! I envy your collection lol!
Hey, nice video love your tips, you make it easier the doing it the late 70 ways. LOL. Like to see more of the pro street builds,.. hey thank for all your video.
Hey Luka checkout cold war motors.
Thanks. Looks like a GEM of a channel. I like it!
Great video. Awesome tips again. Thanks for sharing
Luka, I clear coat my tire sidewalks with gloss before adding the decals. That always seemed to give it something to bite into, then when followed by the dullcoat, it really looked like a rubber tire.
This video was super helpful I’m working on turning a ford gt snap tite kit into an lm car😃!!
Nice, Great tips! always learn something, thank you Luka.
Love the videos I'm just starting to get back into it after 40 years of being absent I'm into the pro street Pro Stock street cars muscle cars any more videos on that a very interested thank you very much
Hey Luka cee I've been wanting to try the seal from coffee cans to make stainless steel on dashes n such working on a stocker I'm gonna do it on I'll send pics
Love your videos I have learned alot from you're videos please don't stop making videos
But the cigarette pack foil looks great to use as foil tape we use on real racecars to seal up any holes in fire wall real fast like the edges after you rivit the aluminum sheets we use the aluminum foil tape to seal off drivers cockpit to help prevent exhaust fumes and insulate a tiny tiny beat from heat. And it looks good for detailing radiators as well and aluminum panels for racecars and paint over it cuse it has a texture and looks good for model planes bare aluminum as well thanks for all the tricks man
Ive been doing models for awhile but nothing like ur doing with all the realism like a whole new world I'm going too get a model today I'm so excited too do some of the stúff u do great channel
I think we'd all like to know how long you save all those decal backings before you change the water. 😄
Cold pizza the best. Like the videos. Keep them coming
Round Tubing also works great for expanding or making flairs
Nice tips Luca!!! I think the length of some of the videos keep some away.:( cinco
Greetinsg from Arizona! I love the channel and all content! Keep it up!
I watch all your videos. I think you should do some videos about your current builds
its a nice tips. but why just not use cable from old charger, it whoud fit in scale..
You say you hand painted the gauges. Any tips on that? I can't paint details that small.
It seems like the universe is working against you sometimes ?? I can relate ...oh yea nice work
Any chances you can make a video on that flip nose 57 Chevy kit you
Enjoyed the video. I always learn something.
Thanks for your tips, love your channel.
Good video Luka!
Great tips Luka.......great stuff sir....thanks man!!!
Stop doing this. So now I have to ask what is this? By the way great model vids keep doing them
Excellent tip video, my fiend. Keep them coming.
Awesome video and tips!! Subbed!
I’d enjoy finding a Dale Earnhardt early car build
And also man NASCARs and stick cars never use momo steering wheels only aluminum oval track racing wheels not that momo junk. I do thank you for all your videos and the love for the hobby helping out the community with tips and tricks for the last few years man on TH-cam great stuff in all your videos
Thank you
Good tips Luka. Thanks
Hell yeah that is badass man thanks for the tips gonna try that on my next drag car i build
Quick question why does everyone who races real race cars like circle track in real life love building scale model NASCARs or even stock cars cuz I drive race cars in real life asphalt circle track modifieds and just about 90% of people I race with in every other division as well all build model cars the only models we build are scale race cars NASCAR old stock cars modifieds whatever that's the only models we build. And race cars drivers all over the country build scale model cars and it's usually just race cars
You build what you are into. What inspires you. When I was involved with racing. What ever type it was. I tend to build models of those types of cars, myself.
I love the tip videos, it help me a lot please since i have had a lot of mini strokes love your model Vehicles you do
Cool video I'm guessing clear smoke would work as well
Great job on the details, very informative!
Great video Luka. Really helpful!
Was that a front porche or a back porche?...
I watch all of them. 😉
Thanks bro. I love your show. I like all the tips you have to give
Another great idea..I use heat shrink for a lot creative things
We learned something again today thanks for your explanation 👍
My pleasure
How about the aluminum tape for sound deadening
Nice tips! I do this with some of my tips hidden inside the build vids too.
I tried making some roll cage padding using thin foam padding and it went really badly! 😂 I'll try out your tip next time I get a chance.
Also, I imagine the tyre decal tip could be done using Tamiya smoke too maybe.
I enjoy your videos...great job!
So what your saying is if you don't watch you won't learn
Keep up the great work! U crack me up i have the same sense of humor!
great tips! thanks Luka Cee!
Awesome video new to scale modelling these tips have taught me a lot
This video was great and tons of information that helps alot man
I don't care what anybody says... Those were some damn good tips right there. Thank you.
Thanks you
Great video. Thx on the tip for roll bar padding
Thank you for the tire lettering tips.
Man nice tip I'll have to try some
I used to build plastic models, some of which I still have. My main focus is die cast collecting. I appreciate the modeling tips you show which is worth subbing alone. 🙂👍✌
How do you make a space frame for a supermodisied 1/8
Dude - clean your decal water up!! I think I saw a couple dead fish in there!! Thanks for the tips!! 🤘
Ouuu. You saw that.
I like the wheel decals is there another way other then air brush?
I watched the video on the 911 car, when you going to do a video on the airbrush pinstripes you mentioned?
When Im ready to do some painting like that. I dont have at set time when. I just do videos as things cone up.
What kind of modeling putty did you use to get the putty to lay so evenly across the fender? It looks amazing.
I don't use modeling putty. I use Evercoat Metalglaze automotive body filler/Glazing putty. I'll am planning on doing a video on it one day.
I like those videos you have great videos
ROCK ON! BUILD STRONG!
Awesome info thanks for sharing.
You are awesome 👍 I've learned a lot from you
