I was wondering if anyone has any info or experience using Hypodermic Needles as gun barrels. I've seen pix of them being used, but haven't really come across any good information on the process and such. Like which needles for what scale and so forth. Thanks. Cheers!

Hey! Since I couldn't find a post on Decanting Spray paint, I thought I'd post my first foray into it. I'm currently working on a Revell 1/48 P-38J Lightning in Aluminum and needed a good paint to put down. One of the guys at the LHS suggested decanting some Tamiya TS-17 Gloss Aluminum...

Hey! Well, since I've been waiting for decals to arrive on my B-26, I've been working on Revell's 1/48 P-38J Lightning. I pretty much plan on doing it Out Of Box and the primary version. After looking at the surgery required and or stunning typical old Revell details...that's about all I feel...

Hey I'm back! Started this 1/48 Revell B-26 Marauder today (off the stash). And I get to try out my new Renegade Krome Airbrush. :-> It's an older kit, but it's the only 1/48 B-26 available. Even with its older production stuff, it should build up nice. So far, I've only encountered 1-2 areas of...

Hey, I’m thinking about building a Bandai MG Zaku II, however the “decals” are stickers. There are some dry transfers and such, but the rest of the ‘stencils’ are stickers. Do you guys think it would work to remove the sticker ‘glue’ and apply them with future, and have it look...

Does anyone have any idea what primer colors AFV contractors use? Most of the info I have on colors only deal with camo and such, and most 'primer' colored pix are B&W. Curious for the WOMW GB. Thanks!

I need help! Whenever I use my airbrush at low pressure, eventually the counterweight will pop off the motor shaft. It's getting more frequent and ever so annoying. has anyone ever delt with this? It has an automatic shut off at 53psi, and start at 43psi. While using at low preassure, it...

Push button, make rocket go now! I'm gonna build it regardless of how the 'clacked canopy' turns out. :) Cheers!

Hey guys. I’ve been hemming and hawing over finding some way of building a spray booth of some kind for a while now. I came to the conclusion recently, since I do my painting right on the desk, that I don’t need a ‘booth,’ but a fume or vapor exhaust system. So I perused the net and...

I got board so I thought i'd do a tool post. :-) Here's how to make a cheep and affordable glue applicator. Cheers!

Hey guys! I could use some help and advise on this. Is there anyway to bring it back? It's the windscreen of a monogram 1/48 A-37 Dragonfly. I bought it off ebay a couple of years ago and was thinking of entering the WOMW GB with it if i can get it fixed. I wouldn't start fixing it...

Well guys, here it is my, P-61 Black Widow. Build page: http://www.scalemodeladdict.com/forum/index.php/topic,1053.0.html I’ll calling it ‘done.’ There’s perhaps a few more things I could do to it, but it’s either call it done or never finish it. The imperfections aren’t necessarily...

Well, off we go (again) into the skies… I’m sure many of you have seen this kit in the hobby stores for years. The first release of this kit was in 1974 (the year I was born). It’s one of those venerable kits; you know, those kits that will never go away and keep popping up in a new box...

Better weight feel & Better exhausts Better weight feel Better exhausts Hope you like, Cheers!

Paint Bottle Agitators ------------------------ Parts needed: Paint bottle + BBs. Heard about this from one of the guys at the local hobby shop a few years ago. For each bottle toss in a few BBs. They will help mix the paint when you’re shaking up the bottle. I’ve done this to all my paints and...
