Just get more stuck to my finger's then anywere else. Never used it before, i've always used filler.

Any one got any tips?

 

have a little dish of water at hand, just dip your fingers in occasionally so it doesnt stick as much

 

mate mix them both together so it makes one whole colour dont mix it together so you can see both colours. then put it on your car shape it then add some water to shape it even better then wait for about 24 hours then it should be rock hard i use the terracotta milliput.

 

cheers roy i will have to keep a eye out for 1 so i can mould the wheels, we can all have a set then lol!!!!
pics still blurry ,changfe the setting on your camera for closeup..

as for miliput its simple.
are u mixing it enough????
using water to smooth it out helps,

 

Am mixing untill its one solid colour, but didnt know about the water trick.

 

i actually use baby wipes to smooth over and take off bits,
works a treat.

 

i use the water trick too,smooths it nicly i also use baby wipes,for my hand tho

dave there is loads of designs on the jada cars,some times its cheaper to get the whole car as can use other bits.

 

Its so much better to use with a bit of water. Thanks fellas.

 

no mate it asnt took me long do you think my spoiler is a bit on the small side i might change it but what do you think.[/quote]



cant tell mate as the pics ant to good,try to hold the cam back from the model abit,mite turn out beta

 

thats it now mate,u b wanting to make everything lol

 

i willhave a look at a few and see what i like!!!!
might be some cheap models up for grabs minus the wheels lol

 

With my new found skill's, am going to need some more cars to mod.lol

 

ive bought a load of them in the past, some you get two sets but those are rarer now.
best bit is theyre all based on real wheels and pretty good too

 

thought i would have a go at a mini kit, ignore the cellotape lol!!!!!
milliput will be coming out tonight...

 

Painted my Focus before, Just needs to sit a bit lower and a rear plate.

 

This looks well cool,love the RS rims,they would look a treat on my escort avo

 

yere i have a set of them on my avo and they are smart.
will have some more in stock next week.
they suit the mini really well tooooooo.

 

i am still unsure of what wheels to put on this bloody model!!!
what u think of these hockenheim's ??????????

 

Man thats low!! Think I would have the wheels silver.

 

yere silver would be nice .and with these wheels it is well low...

 

Is it a rally one?

 

was a rally car untill i attacked it. lol
re smoothed the front end with filler and rebuilt the rear bumper.smoothed out all the roof removing all the vents and scoops, then finished it of with a new custom rear spoiler.
turned out well..just never seem to get the right wheels for it as they are always to small or to big.

 

I know what your saying about the wheels. To be honest I think its the spliter throwing the lines out a bit, which always makes wheel choice hard for me. I am one picky bastard tho. lol

Edit: Its not a dig btw, it looks spot on.

 

Or black wheels to keep with the black and White look
I wld do something different like bright orange or bright green

 

Dave u got any wheels that wld be the right size for my Renault 5 as still not found any

 

Think I need a r5 gtt. Got a xr3i, 205 gti, mk1 golf gti.
Can you get a mk1/mk2 Astra gte?

 

Only astra I know they do is the astra 4 coupe touring car as I wanted an astra and that's what I had to get, but think they brought out the new shape astra cos see some on german eBay

 

Well so much for selling the one's I've got. lol Got a r5 gtt and Delta on my list now.

 

dave those wheels are spot on, just put some black centre caps or something on to break all the white up a bit

 

cheers m8,
will get out the black paint....

colin!!
i don't have any wheels small enough for the r5, only the 1 set i have on mine. u will need to get some 1/24 scale wheels, but make sure they are 20" versions otherwise they will be way to small.

 

thanks mate,
bloody cheat lol. yeah defo save some time.
get it started mate

love the mini,i think it would look better with a roof spoiler like albo's did

 

them chips look yummy

 

What u think of the esc cab with white wheels? i havent glued it on yet....



and my 6 quid bargain!

 

those wheels are nice mate, just paint them silver and turn the tires round so the lettering goes

 

I,ll get you a pick of the 1/2 lb cheese burger next time.lol

 

cheers mate, what paint best to use?

 

selling couple of my models all are mint and come with there boxes

1/18 Lui rs500 minichamps touring car 80.00 + postage
1/18 UT escos silver street car version 60.00 + postage
1/18 Nissan GTR kyoscho 60.00 + postage

 

How do you take apart a SunStar RS1600i. The front splitter is in the way of just pulling the base off so needs to come off first, but how ???

 

just pull it off mate nothing shouldnt break ive done it to both of mine.

 

I like it with the white wheels, but I would take the tyres off and turn them arround.
