Top Notch T

This is truly inspirational.

Been thinking one day I might attempt a wreak. I was given a while ago a Tamiya 1:20 scale Porsche 928s
and was partially put together with what looks like 20jars of builders glue especially on the windows.

Any Ideas, I will put up some photos of the sate of the kit soon when I get my camera fixed.

Cheers
Gav

Thaks for the kind words Gav!!! Think you should definately give it a shot! I did some checking and the 928 was mostly Galvanized with the exception of the doors and hood which were aluminum.....imideately we need to change some peeds here....HIGH GEAR now!!

For discussion purposes only:

Few more pictures of this beauty are HERE Maybe through in some burnt tires in the front..........Like: (not a 928 but you get the picture 8) )

Again, for discussion purposes only:


This was found HERE There a a bunch of sweet shot of some rusted Porches!!

The Galvy would rust and the aluminum would pit and in a burnt scene there is the nice melting and so forth!!

Say the word and I'm in!! LOL!!! Staart a thread and have at it!!! I will lend a hand where I can and I am sure some others will be there along the way!!

All else fails..........

Discussion purposes only:

Not sure where to get a 1/20th Abrams, but it's the thought that counts!! ;D

Thank you!! Hope it helps some. There so many different methods and styles to achieve rusting results. Play around a bit and practice and you will find a method you are comfortable with. This is a great starting point....enjoy!!!!!
