That look awsome, what brand of paint do you use for the silver and aluminum cause mine never looks like that.

Hi nervestrikes to answer your first question is easy as the only paints I use are always Tamiya Acrylics, but the chrome intake boxes are moulded like that so I didn't paint them!
Second your profile pic is done by going to your profile page and selecting the 'update avatar' bit, you'll have to upload an image and then type in the url of that pic and it should appear!

I think I am going to start using more Tamiya paints cause the colors always seem to look more crisp than the testors paints. Thanks for the infor on the avatar. If did it right one should show up now.

Slowly, much too slowly!!
I changed jobs recently (still a Security Officer!!) but the site I'm at now
is occupied so I've gotta actually do something where as the previous place was shut-down so I could take my modelling stuff and spend 60 hours a week making kits whilst there! The new place NO CHANCE, I can't even watch telly till after 7.30pm!!

HAHAHA! Your a mad slacker Fatboy, when you finish the F40 can you take some pics of it on the back of the Volvo truck you made? I like that truck! Looking great so far with the engine, always liked Ferrari engines.
