I appreciate your show. I use to build model cars all the time in my late teens. I even won at model car shows. I came out in magazines. I've stopped for awhile. But now I'm starting to get back into building model cars again. Feels great to be back at my work bench building again. Great to hear your tips and tricks. You have a great series here to watch. I really appreciate watching you here Keep it up.
Dr. Cranky has a great technique for aging chrome. He lightly mists a brown over the chromed part until it looks like it's been sitting out for a while. It's the most realistic look I've seen for chromed parts.
Great content. I enjoy learning the techniques, color palettes, style, types of paint or pigment in this case. This is great. I started my first model, and tried the black wash on the toy chrome type parts. From the first video I watched. Every video I watch, I definitely take something away.
😩 I built the Street Rat version just recently and wish I had seen this. I don’t know if I maybe got a bad kit, but it fought me throughout the whole build. If you like realism, from where parts didn’t line up and trimming and adjusting, I had to use 3 types of glue, and so much of them, it looks like a crappy welder welded the parts together. I’m interested to see if you too have to adjust the flip front hinge so the front end doesn’t have a wide gap between the firewall and the front clip. Good luck to you my friend. However, you do have a better arsenal of tools at your disposal. I had to improve, adapt, and overcome a lot.
I don't know you might want to look into it but I've been the past taking old ballpoint pins with the little springs inside I found that those made some excellent realistic coil springs on a fixed rear end and if you can also on the front end with a control arms I've used small wires for fuel lines connected with rubber lines coming out of fuel tanks and things like that might want to play around with that ideal of the springs out of a ballpoint pen also for realistic looking nuts and bolts find you an old watch there's some really micro small nothing bolts in there
I've tried all of the metallic paints out there. Testor, LifeColor, AK, Vallejo, Mr. Hobby, Gunze, Rust-oleum spray cans, Tamiya, and probably a few more. The best of the bunch are All-Clad 2 Lacquer and the Vallejo Model Air line. Happy Painting
Im learnin alot from you,I love modeling but ive never been great at it,ive many but most are back in the box cause I didnt know how to detail alot of them but Im getting there.lol thanks,
Thanks for Video Mr Cee, Good Stuff. Hey I found this video searching for how to raise rear-end's on a model car. I like big 50 rear tires on all my builds where 1/4 of tire meat is sticking outside fender, and am tired of at times measuring and cutting wheel wells. So, Would you happen to have done a video already or tell me yr you did it? Thanks Luka, even though that isn't your First name, Lol
It looks great! Man, that’s all? The last episode. Well, I guess I got to figure out the rest on my own. Thanks! It was a good run. I got the general idea. Maybe you will finish it someday!!!
Hello there I'm just started watching you videos and it cuts out at part 11 you have anymore videos you still working on it I know you said your working on other stuff but was just checking up
Using tamiya cement incorrectly. Dries to fast to use on surfaces. Have to touch the parts where they meet. This is two years old so u probably figured this out by now.

The Vallejo metal colors are really good.

I will be. As I stated at the beginning. In my own time.
I have really enjoyed this series and have learned a great deal. Do you plan to continue with an episode on the body and finishing the build?
Thanks.
Hope you're doing alright. Love the outtakes. Still a great build.
Cant wait to try when I can get a model!
Very Good

Where is the Malibu I haven’t seen in the background of any of your videos lately
Just one thing? Your "Y" bar would not go on the bottom of the housing, it says to put it "on top " in the instructions??😁
It's easy to see you've actually been under a car or two over the years! LMAO

One thing missing ............brake pipes

It's sad that people are like that. Omg
