Re: Tamiya 1/12 312T4 Resurrection

A really great effort on this iconic Ferrari, it looks super!

The silver on the front- and rearwing is very convincing. What kind of paint did you use?

Re: Models Neko - 1/20 Spirit 101

Emmo's short return in F1 was indeed big news at that time...

By the way, the Neko kits are very nice!

Re: Tyre template 1/12 F1 70's

Bedankt Wim!

Never seen this web-site before. I must say there are a lot more very nice items. Has anybody here had more luck than Wim with ordering? It looks like Acustion-items are not sold much outside this web-site.

Tyre template 1/12 F1 70's

Hi all, I have started building the iconic Mclaren M23 1974 Tamiya 1/12. For the tyres I want to airbrush the goodyear logo's. And here starts the trouble. I can not find anywhere a template. All I could find is the Studio 27 template but is nowhere available. Has anybody an idea where I can find a ...

Re: A good white primer for zero paints

Hi guys, Thanks for all the advices. The video is very helpfull, the Ultimate primer looks very good but I think it is not available in Holland. It is good to know there are enough substitute primers that can be a fine undercoat for the Zero paints without reaction. So I will pick one and have a go!

A good white primer for zero paints

Hi all, First of all, I'm totally done with the WHITE primer from Zero paints. It is to rough, even after thinning. The others ones (like grey) are strangely enough very good. Ofcourse sanding helps but at places where it is difficult to do the sanding it stays rough. Just a small question. I want t...

Re: Removing paint from a resin kit

A little update, Normally I would never use Zero paint thinner on plastic but I gave it a try on a small invisible area on the resinkit...and it worked! I could easily whip off the primer with the thinner without hurting the resin. So I cleaned up the whole kit,now waiting for the second time primin...

Re: Removing paint from a resin kit

Hi,

I think I take the safe way, so no brake fluid but the products from Revell or Testors if I can get it in my hobbyshop.

I still think grey primer of Zero paints is oké on resin but just light coats (no wet coat).

Thanks all for the advices!
