H W, your cars are sweeeeeet!! Good start on the module. Great patience, too. Have you cut a finger yet? And does it get painted?

I wondered if the metal would be sharp but it seems ok not cuts yet, no paint is needed, there is a stamp on the metal of the USA flag and the words “United States of America” which will be on the lower section I’m yet to do. The metal is embossed on the external areas of the module.

Beautiful, Horace! I particularly liked the old Aston Martin. The lunas module must be a big challenge, I can imagine some fine motricity and stable pulse is required. What do you stick them with? And also, do these models bring instructions as to how to paint them, or the paint part is up to you?

And also, do these models bring instructions as to how to paint them, or the paint part is up to you? The metal model has very small tabs which you bend to hold the sections together. The cars come as a complete kit with the paint, brushes and glue and the instructions on what colour goes where.

I've just acquired these two.... As a collector of strange things I'm going to keep the Motorhead model boxed and sealed. The Tour Truck must (according to my daughter) be made!! Attachment Deleted Attachment Deleted
