Naturally, because I brought down another kit... my paint for the CRX came in. I couldn't help but lay it down right away. Im pretty excited on the outcome. Its pretty damn close to oem. Maybe a tad bit more metallic but damn close. Tricky part will be getting all the black trim and window rubber painted black.

WIP:
Since I am almost done with the CRX, just waiting for paint... Im gonna add another kit to this GB. I still have the Saturn V to finish also, but I am still brainstorming some ideas with the smoke. Ive had this truck since 2014 unfinished so its time..
cbaltrin James, nice window masking. I like those coloros too!

On the Bench: Too Much
Welcome aboard 68GT. I have added you and your Six to the roster. I see sandpaper stocks will be on the rise soon
While sanding some filler this morning I kept looking at this poor Monogram F106. I guess thats going to my 1st build here and I'll keep up with my sanding.
On Ed's bench, ???
Chassis is complete. Just the small details now.
Waiting on some paint to come in. Was looking for Honda's Celestial Blue but didnt want to pay for the actual paint. I found a few choices from Mr Color that look pretty darn close so well see. One is a bit too light, the other a bit to dark.
Also masked off hte windows
Project510 cbaltrin So I guess we need a badge for this GB. I have a few ideas, but I am not really a digital artist... Any volunteers out there to assist in creating the badge? Not sure I can be of any help but what are the ideas?

maybe a guy on a tractor pulling a load of half built kits? Maybe some at the bench with a pile of open kits ... maybe a guy opening the closet door and getting buried in half built kits?
Nice recovery on the mustang Frank!
Looks nice Frank!
fotofrank Well, I corrected and repainted the nose this morning. I'll let the paint cure some before I give it a coat of Tamiya X-22 Gloss Clear. After that, a few decals and on to final assembly.

On the bench:
A lot !! And I mean A LOT!!
2024 Kits on deck / in process / completed
14 / 5 / 2
OK. In the stash: Way too much to build in one lifetime...
a bit more work today. Painted the rear lights on and finished up the chassis. Not gonna lie, the Tamiya smoke color was a pain to apply. I switched from Tamiya thinner to Mr Color, and went with less and less thinner until I got it right. I also think the psi regulator on my compressor may be inaccurate because even though I had it at 18 psi it felt really strong. Lowered it down to 10 and it worked so much better.
Great, Thanks!

Looks like weathering to me. Nice and subtle. Looks great. I always sweat the weathering too. I always figure I'm going to ruin a good build. But it usually comes out okay. I think we're all our worst critics.
Well I'm calling this one finished. Now on to the Leo.
Hi Tcoat, I am sorry, I missed your post. I have add you to the roster. Look forward to seeing your finished Ford
TcoatOK I have about 20 but let's start with this one. Ironicly it is from a group build from another forum that just sort of got forgotten. Lindberg 1/32 1940 Ford Convertible
It's a bit small but I will do for now. I have updated the roster. Ideally, I would like to have at least images be 640x480 for the roster page.
cbaltrin Looks great James. Any chance of getting of picture of just the car that I can post on the roster page?

Sure, when I get home from the office Ill get something posted up.
Good enough? Didnt have much daylight left, and I am terrible at photographing these little things in the dark
