Newbie HERE
Hello all! I'm new to this forum, I usually check in on the classic Honda
area because I like to play with my 1:1 scale 1G Honda CRXs. I've been modeling since I was 8, then through out my teens I abondoned the hobby. But now, in my mid-20s, I started to build 1:24 Tamiya and Fujimi kits of old skool Hondas. After checking out everyones sweet models in the gallery as well as the contest, I want to build better. Here's my question; Most of you guys outline the door, and hood seams with a super thin black outline. This looks abosolutely incredible!!! I want to know the secret to doing that. What do you use? Also, how do you guys get your paint jobs looking so bloody mint? Like straight out of a factory. And, where would I find aftermarket rims for 1/24 scale models? Thanks for the tips guys! Sorry for the newbie questions...bare with me.. J

Re: Newbie HERE
For the outlining doors.. most people use Gundam Markers, or they thin out paint, so that it is runny and drip it down the lines, but i havne't done that yet.
Also, how do you guys get your paint jobs looking so bloody mint? Like straight out of a factory. Tamiya paint... Ask P-man.. And, where would I find aftermarket rims for 1/24 scale models? HLJ.com is great.

Thanks for the warm welcomes and useful info! My true hobby is
playing with [i]real[i/] cars. But modeling has always been something I've liked. ...It all began in 1984 when my grandpa passed on all of his H0 scale model trains...then came cars - my first model was a Pontiac GTO Judge and now 15years later I'm into Hondas. Well, cool. Thanks again for the info. I'll post pics of my models as soon as I can. j
