    I love it Nick. The painted spare tyre and the burgundy grill really set off this beautiful casting. I now have new ideas for my roadster, sports car models.

      Thank you Timo, I didn’t want to go overboard with extra details but I thought in this case it just needed a little more than it had originally 👍😊🐸🐸

    Great job Nick, the little MG turned out lovely.👍👍 IMO the chrome hubcaps look really good, I often do it on my models.

      Thank you Richard, I find that it’s very difficult to try to get the hubcaps nice and round, I thought to mask the outer bits of the hubs but with Molotow I’m not sure if it bleed through or smudge taking the tape off! All the best Nick👍😊🐸🐸

      Thank you Paul, glad you like it, it would be great to have a real one but a little out of my price range lol 🤔 All the best, Nick🐸🐸

    Well you didn't expect that to be an easy job after you had attacked the driver with the scale equivalent of a 4" drill, did you? Great end result, a testament to your perseverance.

      Thank you David😂🤣 Well, I suppose I got my just comeuppance for being cruel to the driver lol😉😁🐸🐸

    Wow Nick, the little MG looks superb with all the extra detailing, really good. That's a great tip for rusty base plates, I'll give it a try next time. The windscreen looks great as well. Enjoy your Easter weekend and very best wishes to you both. Peter.

    Lovely job nick masking for different colours can be a pain when it pulls paint off for no reason

    • @crapaudnicksdiecastrenovat1739
      @crapaudnicksdiecastrenovat1739  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you Nigel, you’re right about the masking, pulling the paint off and the bleed through, I got both on this one lol🤦🏻‍♂🐸🐸

  • @martindaredare
    @martindaredare 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Very nice extra detailing on the mg .Nick brings it to life , and masking around the cockpit can be a pain ,so I feel your frustration. The window glass came out well . Enjoy your Easter break. 🐣

    • @crapaudnicksdiecastrenovat1739
      @crapaudnicksdiecastrenovat1739  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you Martin, I think masking cockpits is my least favourite thing to do, I guess we’ve all been there lol and will be again at some point 🤦🏻‍♂😏 Take care, all the best, Nick🐸🐸

    I was getting rather concerned that i hadn't seen your latest video. Appears i hadn't selected to receive notifications. So i change that, so i will receive them in future. I am happy now that i have got my fix. Great show as usual, cheers mate.

    Midget? MG TF surely? A super casting nonetheless! Nice result from one that fought back. Nice wheels.
    Belated HB, N, &MHROTD!

      @crapaudnicksdiecastrenovat1739  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you Fraser, TF, Td , TC midget ? I don’t know, the model had MG Midget on the baseplate, I don’t really know anything about these MG’s. Thank you for the birthday greetings, another year older🤦🏻‍♂😔 don’t know where the time goes🤔🐸🐸

    • @frasermartin6728
      @frasermartin6728 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, I saw the baseplate - the car is for sure a TF, but I don't recollect them being familiar as Midgets - but you live and learn, eh?@@crapaudnicksdiecastrenovat1739
