GVoakes Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Nice job! How were the kit tracks? I've read some reviews that the reviewer has indicated that they don't handle paint well, don't want to stay together once on, and are basically the devil incarnate.... Got one of these up in the stash that I would love to get at, but so far I keep holding out for AM tracks to be prodiced by someone... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zmey Smirnoff Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 Thank you for all the praise, guys. It was a very pleasant and easy build. Except the tracks that is. I've dealt with worse vinyl tracks before... but I really dont remember when. Paint stuck ok. Minimal flaking afterwords, easily fixed by brush painting. But gluing the ends together and keeping them together while putting them in place was hell on wheels. I melted the pegs, then drowned the seam in CA, then clamped full force with 2 hemostats per seam... and still it broke several times before I got them on. And once I finally did - they looked like crap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
