Re: Wolf Wr1 Ford 1/12 Tamiya Monaco 1978

Just wondering???? Is this an accurate representation of the Monaco car being the long wheelbase version? I always wondered why Tamiya did the short WB version in 1/20th scale and the long WB version in 1/12th scale. Many years ago when I built this model in 1/12th I modified it to the short WB vers...

Re: Handbrake Porsche 935

Yes, That is not a hand brake it is a lever to adjust the Anti Roll Bar. The 935 had many different Anti Roll Bar setups on it. In the Tamiya kit the adjustment was on the rear anti roll bar and it was only of one side of the roll bar. If memory serves, the roll bar depicted in the Tamiya kit has a ...

Re: Paint Cracking - M@r!b*r* Fluorescent Red

The helmet is painted with House of Kolor brand Fluo red from a spray can. My local custom paint/airbrush place, Coast Airbrush, sells House of Kolor paint and they have the ability to put any paint into a spray can for their customers. So the helmet was first sprayed with white primer. Then a base ...

Re: MULTIMEDIA Upcoming F1 Releases 2023

Re: Paint Cracking - M@r!b*r* Fluorescent Red

Lose the TS 36. ALL of my Mclarens have cracks. Some took longer than others to crack but they're all cracked. I switched to Gaia 103 Fluo red and on my "current" Macs, both at least a year after painting have no cracks. And airbrushing fluo red gives you far more control than the can - t...
