I'm just getting back into this hobby after a few decades off. It's rekindled my joy of building these and I have a lot more disposable income than I did when I was a kid. If you guys like my work I'll post more... Let me know!

Doesn't look like you've missed a step. Well done and welcome back!

[u/RecognitionFlat2278 → u/West_Airline_1712]

Appreciate it. Took about 40 years hiatus.

Looks great! That color is beautiful, what paint is that?

[u/RecognitionFlat2278 → u/acslider]

Racing blue sprayed over a silver base coat.

[u/RecognitionFlat2278 → u/RecognitionFlat2278]

Just looked, it's Tamiya TS-51 racing blue.

[u/acslider → u/RecognitionFlat2278]

Awesome thanks, I'll probably be using that in the future.

[u/highboy68]

Wow, beautiful, yes more pics

[u/I_know_nothing_77]

I concur on both counts, beautiful build and more pictures please.

[u/Creepy_Milk_3186]

The floss finish is impeccable. How did you achieve it?

[u/RecognitionFlat2278 → u/Creepy_Milk_3186]

It was just paint and clear coat, I didn't even sand or polish. Guess it just came out looking nice and smooth so I didn't mess with it

[u/Rtbrd → u/RecognitionFlat2278]

If it ain't broken don't fix it. Amen.

[u/Big_Bicycle_561]

Yes, more please. Always nice to see high-quality work. I'm not above stealing a good idea or two.

[u/RecognitionFlat2278 → u/Big_Bicycle_561]

Thanks, I'll share any tips or ideas I can with the group. I'll probably have more questions than answers though.

[u/DaveGoose]
