- About to start a new build and I need your help and suggestions. I don't know where to start and I think I have the colour choice right but even that I could be wrong. Calling all scale car modelers for your guidance. Thanks for the support
Alex. The beauty of model building is it is personal. I wash my trees first to remove the mold lubricant. Just soak in soap and water. Sometimes I will prime all the parts on a specific tree. Others I will prime and paint individually. Prep the body by sanding any mold flash. It's personal preference and sometimes trial and error. Some times I have to sand the edges free of paint that I'm gluing together to bond them more securely. As far as detail goes start small and go from there. I get bogged down in detail sometimes and it becomes frustrating. If you are just starting out the numbered steps in the instructions are a good guide to follow. The more you build the more you will become comfortable with doing what you want when you want. Sometimes you just have to have at it and learn as you go. Cheers mate.
Jay you are so right. It's all an experience game. You guys have paid your dues and that's why you can give us nubes all the advice in the world. Thanks for your guidance and your push to actually just give it a shot and hey if it's a mess up then just change it up. alex
Alex Ive only been building for about a year so I'm learning too. Each model you finish will add experience. If you get a chance to find cheap garage sale models or flea market models to practice on so cost isn't as much of a factor do that if you can. Keep building. Jay
@@touristtownmodels-jay906 that's a valid point. Most of my fun builds have been from kits that were given to me... So the financial part of the kit isn't an issue so I have that freedom to explore. I'm hoping I can receive a bit of assistance in getting parts over to my side of the pond for a little cheaper then I'm seeing online. For example Noone sells aftermarket wheels and tires here and I would love to do some wheel swaps on some cars. Anyone keen to be a shipper for me?
Hey, first and foremost, keep it fun...many ways to build, got some great suggestions already from others...but at worst, after soaking the kit in warm, soapy water and air drying, just begin at Step 1 and go from there...time and patience, buddy....and hey, nothing wrong with drink a brew and chatting to the community....Cheers!!!
MOST important: It's your kit, your build, do what you feel is right, do your own color :), Will be waiting for an update ^^, i still haven't done that exact model but have done a few other Porches, but ultimately, it's your model, do how you see and think is best for you
Thanks Vamp. Your comment and suggestions are great. Will have an update soon on this build. Have a few others on the go I want to put up.
