Is this like what the 'Ghostbusters' used in the film?
That would look really cool.
I hope my next is always better

I can just imagine you singing the Ghostbuster's song and wailing like the siren during the build!

Spooky!! (pun intended). We're working our way through the series of 'Young Sheldon' and Annie Potts, 'me-maw' (grandmother) was in the original Ghostbusters. Tracy showed me the picture last night.

You're certainly going to have a garage-full Dave.

The glazing comes in one complete lot.
It is badly scratched and even though it was in a separate plastic bag it has obviously been rubbing on other parts, it is a kit from 1989, I THINK.
Anyway lots of buffing and so on to do.
I am not sure if the scratches show on the photos.

Hi Zak,
Pity about the glazing, I'm sure a bit of buffing will help reduce some of them. I've got some buffing pads if you want to try them.

Thanks Kevin, I am using the Novus 2 and 3 to see what they can do.

I'll make sure!

Modelling is on hold while I sort out my spray booth, it gets clogged up and needs frequent cleaning. The parts are now rather brittle and fall apart, I have an elephants trunk to go out the window, that is falling apart too, a new one is needed.
It may be the excuse needed to sort myself out.

Is this a 'cross-over' Buffy meets the Ghostbusters? The texture on the steering wheel looks good.

It is starting to come together.
The glazing is in the body shell.
Something of a fight.
