    A nice subject Phil. I have the Thunder Models tanks transporter version in the stash. If I recall correctly, the IBG kit has an error with the windshield. The frame isn't rectangular as it should be. They may have corrected it though. Carl

    Looks awesome. Like the real thing. I've been watching different videos on YouTube of folks building the Factory Five 65 coupe replica and it would be hard to tell yours apart from the 1/1 kits.

    That looks great there Scott.

    Looks good there Scott. Nice progress.

    Yeah, those fenders are crazy thin.

    Hubert, just curious which Tamiya scriber you have? I use a Trumpeter one that looks like a hook, a really old Tritool one that's a pointy looking thing and razor saws.

    Looks fantastic Rob. Great finish on the gloss coat. Hope the chip from the cat isn't too hard to fix.

    Martin, it's really old Mr Color. Probably 20 years old. They've changed the bottle I think three times since I bought the paint.

    Thanks Rob. It's definitely easier than yours. Just 1 part so there shouldn't be any alignment worries.

    I finally got a chance to do some masking. Then it was time for paint. Unmasked. A couple touchups are needed.

    Back to the Beat(s), I masked and sprayed the windshield frames.

    I've got a few of these cars. I forgot I had them as they were stashed with my very stalled Seafire 47. One to go with your current thread Rob:

    One more to add to this. This is from Neko. It's a cartoon style solid resin model of the Beat.

    The finish on the exhausts looks amazing. Like they're actually metal.
  15. BlrwestSiR
    That looks great Rob. Looks very smooth. More importantly, it's dust free.

    I was at a friend's cottage and we were making burgers for dinner. We ended up not having enough buns. I remembered that we had leftover French toast from breakfast. So some of used them instead. They guys that did loved it.

    Nice! Can't wait to see your build.

    White undersides are done now. Once this dries I'll mask it off and start on the upper side.

    My TEAC CD player tray opens but then immediately closes. So you have to be quick in swapping out CDs. The Sony Minidisc player has a missing power button so it's just on all the time. At least there's nothing wrong with the Pioneer laserdisc player. Hope I haven't jinxed it.

    I got a coat of primer on just now. All the seams look good, I'm happy to report. A slight bit of touch-ups needed on one spot but that's it. I primed the float while I was at it. That will need a bit more prep work but I'm happy overall.

    This one has been slow to progress. The second try at painting the body ended up with more dust in the paint. Same with go #3 Finally, on my fourth kick at the can, I go something decent. Now hopefully I can make more progress.
  22. BlrwestSiR
    The painting has begun. Can't wait to see your magic on this.
  23. BlrwestSiR
    The extra details you're adding are really impressive. I wouldn't have thought that you're doing this without an airbrush.
  24. BlrwestSiR
    Sadly, I don't think I would even know the correct answer.

    If you want a second kit, BNA has it for 50% off for the next 24 hours. $133 CAD which is an absolute steal. https://www.bnamodelworld.com/military-vehicles-tanks-trumpeter-models-tr-00927-1:16-us-m1a2-sep-main-battle-tank-mbt
