Hi, I have just started painting my TE HDPE and got to a great finish with Wickes appliance white gloss and was leaving it to dry and some kids from the flats I live put there grubby little mitts all over it!! So I have waited all night and wets sanded it down to what I think looks good. Now how long before I can repaint it gloss without it bubbling up or crackling?

Thanks Steve!

Hi guys, can someone enlighten me about this ATA armor and lids. Where does it derive from? and who makes it? I've tried the search button but I can't seem to find any info.

As with most airbrushes you will need to thin the paint down and it is a good idea to have fine ground high pigment paint too.

You could always give me your name and address and paypal me the money and I can send you some? I'll just pick some up from my local model shop. Mark.

Thanks Marcus, I'll do that.

Hi Guys, I have someone interested in buying my deactivated new spec Sterling SMG but they are in Germany and I am in the UK. Does anyone here know if I am legally allowed to? I know I cannot send to the states but I am not sure about within Europe. It has the certificate with it. Any help guys would be greatly appreciated. Mark.

WOW great work Paul.

Well I have the Hyperdyne, Rom FX, Voice core and a couple of others and in my opinion the Rom FX gives the best no feedback sound nice , loud and clear, followed by the Voice core from Plecter labs which is another good unit. IMO the Hyperdyne is tricky to eliminate feedback and a little tricky to program. At least the one I have is which is the earlier model, they may have fixed that by now. So if you can afford it go with the Rom FX it rocks!

Nice one Pete. Looking good.

Any ideas on the mustang wimbledon white? or does anyone know what colour white was used here in the 70's on the first ones?

Cheers guys, Humbrol it is:)

Hi Guys, I am in need of some Testors Ford Engine Blue for my Trooper stripes and some cans of Ford Mustang Wimbledon white for the lid and armor. The thing is I live in the UK and I cannot get it here or at least I can't find any. Is there anyone here that could get some form the US and post it to me? I will obviously pay for all postage, paint and time . Please let me know if any of you can help me out. Thanks in advance. Mark......... p.s Moderators, sorry if this is in the wrong place. Move or delete where applicable.

I just let rip! The only problem I have is that I do have to have a bath or shower every 3-4 troops! :lol:

|Mike, I'm sure you know what your doing but the way you pull that craft blade towards your thumb on the eyes is scaring the s*** outa me! great vids though and will be a big help to anyone building a lid. Mark

Hey Andy, I've seen you on the RPF! I snagged a real MPP flashgun on ebay for $260 a short while back, not sure if that's a real bargain or not but I was happy as they are as rare as rocking horse S***! and a real Graflex for $100. Not from ebay but I also got about 10 large and 10 small Glenross dental expanders for DV reveal for nothing but the price of some phone calls to hospitals and dentists and got about 35 photomultiplier tubes (vents on the reveal) for £50. I swapped 1 small expansion screw with Portumac on ebay for a fiberglass cast of DV reveal, Face, Dome and neck seal! Mark.

Yeah, what they all said. I have a pair of Stompers with speakers and they're GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAT! I also have a few SDS Hovis that are injection molded two parters and they seem very good, sharp details but not having an original to compare with I wouldn't know who's are the most accurate. But for ease I would say Stompers or Keiths as you can get them right here.

I am a member but I never seem to feel the need or the want to visit. I have had run ins with him before and he is very quick to judge and lord over people before even getting to know them. That in my book is enough to put me off, after all life is to short. <_< I joined in this whole hobby thing to enjoy myself and collect screen accurate props To be told everything is SH*! unless I have cast or sold it just doesn't wash with me. It's all very well having access to original props and knowing everything in the universe about them and having great casting and modeling skills but never actually letting anybody or very, very few lucky people have the privilege of buying something doesn't really contribute to the enthusiasts and hobby community in a very positive way.(IMO) I personally have nothing against Gino and think he is good at what he does, but he ain't helping me, and probably never will now! Just my 2 cents worth.

That's great, Thanks.

Aaron, The two prongs at the end of the cylinder base should be inside the tubes. The tubes don't rest on the prongs. Not sure if prongs is the right word but hopefully you know what I mean. If you look at the photos. At the start of this thread you will see what I mean. http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?show...power+cylinders Mark.

Hi mate, it's about 30mm with a slight bend.

Do you mean Stompers Hovi's?

I did a Double post?
