Randy Ayers Nascar Modeling Forums

They are discontinued on Mike's site and I don't see them anywhere else

Thanks! I went down a rabbit hole and found a couple of Slixx sheets. I'm not sure how I feel about any of them yet but I do like the Royal Oak car and the Sunoco car so far!

Didn't see much on In ...

I recently got the Rain-X Camaro Scott Sharp kit for a decent price. While I like the base car and wouldn't mind building it, I was also wondering if there were any aftermarket decals for something li ...

I found an Airbus A321neo model kit for cheap recently and bought it. I wanted to decal it into the Iron Maiden jet plane \m/

However in researching the Iron Maiden is a Boeing 747-400.

Both th ...

Hello everyone!

Does anyone have a source for a good tutorial for an absolute amateur to creating window glass?

I'd prefer something simple and easy as I'm definitely closer to the beginner le ...

This is a really cool scheme!!

Does that little bit of gray need to be painted? Looks like it.

Also is that a gloss black?

Was looking at Mike’s Decals last night and he has posted some new stuff on his coming soon tab, and 2 things stood out- he’s producing some sort of gasser sheet, didn’t know he did drag racing ...

This was one of my first models. Nice trip back!

I understand the move to Facebook and how much better that medium is at attracting people. Maybe someday I will get on there. But I love this little board and I'll be here until the very end!

I guess they will never do modern current Nascar trucks. That's money I would spend if they did.

I'd be a Day 1 Preorder on any Truck or Xfinity kits.

FYI, Jays is printing the Ford, Toyota, an ...

Got to add in my distaste for the body molds in color. I am usually not a high horse guy when it comes to things and generally like Salvinos. I hate bodies moldeed in color. They just look very toy-is ...

I agree with DaveVan!

I have used both Aircraft Remover and Citristrip and prefer Citristrip.

Aircraft Remover seems to have update its formula recently and doesn't work as good for me.

Ci ...

What year is this kit from? It looks like maybe 98-99?

I personally would reach out to Mike or one of the other decal wholesalers. You won't get retail, but it would be an easy sell.

If you don't like that option... my first go to would be to post it ...

I believe you want an 2000-2002 for accuracy.

Tamiya TS-8 Italian red, over white primer.

Not my project, but some photos it looks more orange than red, to my eye anyway

Its one of the toughest paint matches imaginable to me. Loo ...

Great post Billy!!!

I wanted to add that in 2000 Racing Champions did make diecast kits in both 24th and 64th for those who want to test the process without the drilling and taking apart of a dono ...

MCW paints, they list a 2085 Lemon Yellow. For airbrush. No year is given, so assume the 80's car.

Also list the 2085 for use on the Kelloggs cars of all years.

Sweet, thank you! I might have so ...

What do you guys think for the yellow on DW's Pepsi challenger?

Right now I am doing the 1997 version when he did the Parts America throwback. I assume its the same as the original, which I also h ...

I would love to see a nice video series detailing the build of one of these. My first did not go well at all

Wow. Clean build. The modified kits have been a bit tricky for me. Definitely requires more patience.

Same here.. my first was a fail and I bought a 2nd one. Hoping for better results.

Blue is ...

Hi everyone!

What is the best way to repair a failed paint job? The color didn't match as good as I'd like so I'd like to strip it and try again. Is that feasible? Would it be crazy to just primer ...

The problem I see with a Lumina re-pop is you can still get them for $20 or under shipped and there are a ton of Powerslide decals already made. Salvinos wants $55 plus shipping for their "new&q ...

Hi,

Both of my local hobby stores have closed within the last year. Where do you guys go for supplies? I'd love to do online but the shipping seems a little crazy for small orders like jarred pain ...

Late Models are no longer available.

Still have a great deal for any Blaney fan out there!

Any word on what the decals for these will be? I am assuming a nice cartograf print?

Super excited for this!!

How have you guys been working the decals for this? Do you decal everything once it's built, or decal it before its done? This is my first time working with a piecemeal bod ...

Selling:

Thank you guys!

I come to this board BECAUSE i hate Facebook groups. Good luck with the group but I'll stay here for now!

Are there any big body differences between the 2015 Snaptite kit ad the 2017 Glue kit?

As someone who is not super concerned with pinpoint accuracy, but do want the decals to fit, should I stick t ...

This is insanely cool!!!!

I guess in 30 years every one will be trying to unload their Salvino kits for pennies on the dollar.

I doubt that one. Salvinos seem to have a pretty good control on production and are not overprod ...

do any of the Monogram/Revell kits have much in the way of resale value. I'm talking after the Lord art work and prior to 2001? The Monte Carlos and the Luminas.

and do I remember there being an ...

Didn't get any bites, figured I'd try once more Smile

Hi everyone, trying to work on getting rid of some kits I am not too interested in;

All sealed;
Dale Earnhardt "Clear" Monte Carlo (1998)

I think I don't envy you.. I was going to make this scheme the modified I built, but luckily I found that someone is doing Justin Bonsignore's car so I prefer to do that one!

The top picture makes ...

Yay!!!

Any modeling-related resolutions?

I want to bring down my stock of stuff I need to work on. Got a ton of diecast that needs customizing, and a fair amount of kits as well. I'm sure this ...

These are all amazing, but the Jurassic Park car really pops out at me and is soooooo good.

Thanks for the heads up!!

Is there a reason for them to not keep the modified kits rolling? I really don't want to buy any new models now but I also don't want to miss out. Really want to build a m ...

Just wanted to let you know your post inspired me to do this car!

I have an overabundance of 98-99 Tauruses. I bought a TON of them at KB Toys (Pro-Finish) for five bucks back in the day. I just r ...

So I've actually been working on a JD Gibbs model over the championship weekend. I always liked the Gibbs kids and with some extra kids I wanted to give JD a tribute. As I am working on this, I hear t ...

I especially love the scene with all the Pennzoil cars !!

I am now wonderin what other sponsors could get a similar setup. It looks super cool!

Thats probably right with the MCW.

I did the kit model and the paint suggested was "medium blue" and I found this;

Gorgeous!

Yes I would be interested I had 3 that turned out bad that I dont want to to display them

Interesting, what happened with them?

What you've described, I've seen similar in the Wip thread.

Cars that are downgraded to shelf fillers because of various fails.

The hardest thing wil be for members to post photos before paint i ...

Would anyone be interested in a thread where we post our not-so proudest work?
Bad paint/decal jobs, colors don't match, pieces missing, something else didn't come through?

I am having a hell ...

Wow! This is a stunning car. I kinda missed it with everything at Vegas. And I didn't know Danny Koker was involved, which is even cooler!

It's definitely on my to-do list now
