Looks good, only thing you may want to try is to thin out the rust paint just a little. I had a thickness issue also and found that thinning it helps, also hitting the car with some Dullcote or a flat finish airbrushed on. Still good work [tup] <br /> <br />Good job Adam, I made some just a little bit ago. I need to get some paper/cardstock that folds better and get rid of that ugly fold. I am thinking of printing on some plain .005" thick styrene once and see what happens, or maybe a little thicker. <br />[/quote] <br />David No it is HO scale. I used a toothpick to apply white glue & then dusted on chalk. The nearest HS that has Dullcote is 250 miles away so I used some flat finish I got at WallMart. Not as flat as I would like. I might try thinning the white glue. <br />Tom <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Tom <br /> <br />Try to pick up some Testors Clear Parts Cement, to thin it or even the white glue, I was told to place the container in a bowl or cup of warm to hot water, that will thinit down well, sort of like when you put syrup in the microwave when it's been in the fridge. Dusting after glue is a very effective weathering method. I am sold on it.
