*PICS* My models (unbuilt)
I just got a digi cam yesterday and decided to take some pics of my models, I haven't put em together yet, I've had em for about a week or two, I want to get everything I need first, then do it all when I have some free time, possibly over thanksgiving weekend, depending how much I work. If nto then I will have to wait till like spring break, since I won't be home during christmas.
They'll get done sometime soon. Also if you have any tips for a newbie please do tell. The pic shows my models and spray paints, I also have some of the smaller brush on paints, and some sand paper, and clear parts glue, and cement glue.  Click here if you are a resolution freak, for a bigger pic.

here's a tip!
send me the Cwest Rx7 and i'll build it for you! okok just kidding here's the real tip, see all those Testors Spray Paints, well put them all together in a box , poor some gasoline on it and burn them all!!! haha they suck, they are the worse thats why walmart sells them for so cheap.. well ok, just return them if u can and buy tamiya paints, because you'll soon find out that the tamiya lacquer's are a gazillion times better!! good luck and hope to see the cwest soon!

I am new to this paint stuff, so what difference does the quality of the lacquer make, is it an over time type thing, or just how it will look when done.

A lot of people here use lacquers to paint their models. I recently did my first lacquer paintjob and it came out very, very good.
The lacquer dries very fast compared to enamels and can be compounded and polished to a glass like finish. Read the FAQ's to get more info on this type of painting. Good luck!

I thought the Viper Gts was crap because the front and back dont fit right but the revell integra is a joy to build. Good luck on those kits!
