questions

hi,

i have a few questions to ask.

For those modellers that have completed the revell acura integra type r kit or something similar, should the bumpers be glued before painting or after? Well, this question goes to the all revell kits.

Also i noticed that almost all the cars have the "big brakes", how do you make or build them? Thank you.

im just a noobie and i appreciate the help

thank you

I found with the Acura, it's easier to glue the bumpers on first. It all depends on the design.

You can make your own brakes, there are tutorials online, or you can buy aftermarket resin or photoetched sets.

when possible, I try to always glue every body parts before painting.

i agree as well - if you don't glue the body parts ahead of time, you run the risk of marring the paint with the glue if you use a little too much when you attach the body parts. some kits, however, it is impossible to pre attach because you may not be able to fit in the chassis or something like that.
