So my kids decided they wanted to build car models
Thankfully, I found this forum where I hope I can turn to for help on occasion. Here's 2 questions I'm not sure of:
1) How do you use white glue to glue windows and keep the window set tight while the glue dries and keep the glue from running down the window? Or should I use some other type of glue?
2) How do you detail a dashboard (the gauges, etc.) when no decals are available (example - '68 Roadrunner by AMT) without ending up with a sloppy mess (which is what I ended up with)?
I haven't done it since I was a kid (more than 25 years ago) and I did wrong back then. I've spent more time researching than building hoping to produce something decent eventually and teach the kids how to do it right.
Right now, we're using spray enamel from a can for the bodies and acrylic with brushes for everything else (if the kids stay interested and my skills improve we'll invest in an airbrush). Since I'm an old guy, I'm doing the cars I thought were cool when I was a kid (i.e. late-60's early 70's muscle cars), the kids, of course, have more modern tastes.
Any help would be much appreciated!
