Does anybody have any tips on srpay enamel paint and clearcote? Everytime Ive tried it , it has blotched and messed up :s

 

i haven't used it . always stick to halfords paints.have no problems with them.

 

i use hycote paint that always does the trick or as dave says halfrauds paint lol

 

dave mate the wheels turned up today buddy and cheers for the extra brakes the wheels are spot on my £8 burago focus minus the decals and the spoiler colourcoded and your wheels which are top notch quality have made it look spot on im well happy

i'm just building another cabinet now lol but still think i will have some in boxes i only have one of each colour capri as the others are on the bay lol not selling tho, got 2 offers today for £60 and £50 muppets

 

im loving all these models, where do you guys get the sticlers, wheels etc, also are burago models any good?

 

get the decals and wheels from ebay ( model_motorvations ) or some people on here from time to time, i have some burgo models they are quite for the price but the quality ones like autoart are a bit dearer

 

Started putting the Gartrac together today
Wheels only resting in arches, plenty to still do.



Also have a wide arch Escort to do, will have cossie power etc, just got to decide on a colour, needs to be a bit lairy methinks

 

auto art minichamps kyosho sun star and now norev there the better make models but my focus above is burago my only burago model i have and thats cool i love it

 

jas they look awesome mate u waste no time do ya lol

 

i vote kawasaki racing green for the wide arch

 

Green or orange

 

i want a series 1 turbo kit for my escort, where do i find one? if its possible or do people on here just hand make them, not sure if my skills are up to it lol

 

Its a mk3 as you probably gathered

 

tha looks wicked mate,is that the same kit streetfighter had on his mk1.did you get it from germany???
what paint do you use as the gartrac looks very shinny

 

i made my own but there will be some available shortly.
were in derby u from??

 

excellent stuff dave,nice curve you got on it,i know it must be hard to make these as i would'nt have a clue but its a shame they dont go to the end of the wing.
not sayin they shit cuz they ant

 

u goin to ave to give up ur day job soon as ur goin to be bust busy.
looks shit hot

 

Thanks mate.
Its a different kit from the Mk1 (only slightly) actually for the MK3, yes I got it from germany along with a MK1 kit I am building too.
Paint is good old halfords rattle cans, plenty of dust coats of primer, colour and laquer, all sprayed in a heated shed and then cured.

 

how do i get the orange paint of the indicators that are on the headlights.
i want them to look clear with the headlights.

thanks in advance

 

u bastard !!!!! i am going to start calling u hawk eyes lol !!!!!
i will extend them specially for u .

 

what headlights??
mk3 escort clear lenses will soon be available from us.. if u can wait...

 

i agree , awsome paint job there mate!
we will have the mk3 kit available soon aswell so you wont have to buy from germany will be cheaper from us!!!!!

 

i would mask a line diagonally from front drivers side to rear passenger side and two tone it , would look awsome.
signal yellow and signal green Mmmm .lol

 

Dave its of the mk3 escort mate do you know how i can get the orange paint off
