Guigsy Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 yes the instructions tells you which bits to paint what colours. and the kits are very detailed anyway. he is about to do senas mclaren from the 80's (not sure which one) i think its 87. Its just been reissued and is very detailed indeed. he had downloaded loads of extra things to do to it. a guy has done a tutorial on the same kit in the usa with lots of extra bits. for example the carbon fibre on the enzo i think he put some extra on. and the bottles and things on the top of the tank dont come with the kit. and weathering under the plane where the wheels retract to. and on the back of the tank and the tracks, It doesnt tell you to do that in the kit. Or weathering of the tyres of the f1 cars to look used. otherwise there shiny! the hornet looks quite a simple model but its incredibly detailed. there is a couple of hundred parts to it. the engines are built seperately from lots of different parts... then hidden away inside where you cant even see them!

trooper Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 They're not models!!! You've simply taken real vehicles and minturised them with a ray gun. Anyone could do that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
