    Beautiful color. I've always wanted to try a Tamiya and It looks like they are worth the extra price. Well done my friend.

      Thank you Cory, yeah really happy with it. They are expensive for sure, sometimes twice what a AMT/Revell etc is. But the engineering makes them a real joy to work with. Thanks for watching, be well. How's your GT350 coming along?

    Love it, we have an MX5 on the driveway, but its a bit awkward to get in and out of now for our age, its our third since 2002, so I would love to build our Mk4 eventually, I have some touch up paint from when we got the hood/bonnet resprayed, I am just hoping I can spray that on plastic to give us our metalic blue car which is probably going to be chopped in this Autumn.

      Very cool Mark! We had a 2008 Z4 and it was the same when the roof was up. Beautiful car. Thanks for watching.

    Try checking used restaurant equipment places up in your greater area John. Dehydrator cabinets can be found that hold quite a bit of models, and sizes, and aren't all that expensive.
    Bit they sure do cut down the waiting for paint to dry and gas-off times.

      Thank you Crazy I will do that. Cheers!

      Yeah that was my concern - fumes have to go somewhere@@crazylocha2515

      @@johnalecsscalemodeling it's easy when you apply just a few brain cells. If it's a wide narrow vent, like a microwave or similar -- shop vac wide hose end (and hose) duct tape to cover. Simple PVC pipe Y-junction, one of each size as your fume/paint booth vent and a smaller one the size of the dehydrator hose (doesn't matter there if wide or round vents). Very common in standard house plumbing stores and website. If you're handy dandy on Amazon, as someone else mentioned, it can all come to your door and can be pretty cheap.
      It's not all that complicated. Just apply elbow grease to a few brain cells and taadaa 😁

    Hi John, never really thought of building a car kit until I saw you being this mazda. Will definitely get this to build. Probably won't be as good as yours though.

    • @johnalecsscalemodeling
      @johnalecsscalemodeling  Год назад

      Thank you David, yeah it's a straightforward kit very enjoyable. It will be YOURS that's all that matters buddy have fun building it. The newer Tamiya kits any of them are excellent. Cheers

    Very good work on the build, what are your thoughts on the ProScale line? Also, did you buy them in the UK from UMP? Thanks and subbed.

      Thank you Michael! Bought them retail from the ProScale site. I love them they spray and finish beautifully. Cheers.

    Nice Mazda John, came out great, if they only included an engine.🙂

      Thank you David! Yeah, it as a bare-bones kit. I've started the '63 Avanti AMT, nice to have a kit with an engine again! Cheers buddy
