Thanks bud, it’s a great hobby. I try to encourage others - I started building again during the pandemic. In my youth, I built and destroyed literally 100s of kits, that are now reissues, as a result I understand most model car kits - that’s how I learned though. One of the biggest mistakes I find novice builders make, is in their executions of older lower quality kits, like the old MPC reissues - whereby, they try assembling them like carburetors, then wonder why they get poor results. A lot of older kits require cutting, sanding, fitting, and fabricating - they can also be slapped together relatively easy, but they usually won’t look satisfactory. Newer kits, with higher parts counts go together like jigsaw puzzles, and will more often than not yield great results. I find the skill levels written on kits are misleading in that regard.
@@walterhammond290 yeah, I’m probably going to brush some dull coat on the seats to knock the gloss brown down. This was my 3rd build since returning to the hobby.
…..I remember now, when I brushed that brown paint on, I was thinking it was going to be semi-gloss. Best I can do now, is brush some clear semi-gloss on the seats and part of the door cards.
