1/24 DINO 246 GT full video build

[@gsmith207]

Wow. I built this car when I was 12 years old. I’m 53 years young now and my 27-year-old son bought me this for Christmas! Here I go! $80 1980s vintage model set cost me $300 in supplies I love it! Wish I had this video 39 years ago! Thanks for inspiration!

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

Hi,happy new year!! I love this car since I was a child.. now I am not far from fifty,can't afford a real dino..but at least I can build a model 😅😅,anyway, thank you for your comment,I wish this video be useful.. happy modeling!!

[@ModelingInMotion]

Great job! I was usually wet sanding at the end, and not between clear coats as well. I will try this next time, thanks for the tips & tricks!

[@bfdzvalable]

I learn something new every time I watch one of your videos. Thanks for taking the time to share your talent.

[@samuelsmith6902]

Really! A SUPERB JOB - BEAUTIFULLY DONE THANKYOU!

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

thank you very much!!😊

[@pennylane8859]

At first I thought the clear coat would cost more than the whole model. But the result. What an achievement!

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

hi,multi layer painting got one benefit: if something wrong,I can fix defect between layers... as you mention,this way takes more paint and time..I am glad the result is not bad. thank you for watching !!! have a nice day!

[@ScaleAutoGarage]

Beautiful results on this fiddly kit. It went together well.

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

much appreciate!! indeed, this kit got some issues,but they are not big deal,I am glade it comes out well..😊😊

[@z2outdoor]

Very details on painting procedure.

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

thank you very much!!😊

[@Sonic-Scales]

You did a great Job. I truely liked this video because its just gives me chills. On minute 21, you put the trimmed lens into a White Medium on a wood cube, to allow you to polish the lens. May i ask what Medium thas was? I had always issues on polishing small clear parts. Thank you.

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

Thank you very much!!😄 I use Mr.hobby compound (#8000) and hasegawa ceramic compound to polish clear parts,they are quite handy for me..

[@layne182]

It turned out really good, you done a great job

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

appreciate! honestly, this kit is not so easy..I try to build it as good as I could..anyway,hope you like it!!

[@kevinsmith7697]

Refreshing to see someone that has there painting skills mastered! I used to wait 30-60 days for waxing, is this still an issue? Paint manufacturers used to call for this! micro mesh used from 4000 to 12000 wax wasn’t necessary for me. Some builders wonder why there foil doesn’t stay on.🤔

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

hi, I used to use lacquer paint,and the drying time is about 3-6 days depend on how much layers of paint,I usually do not use wax on my painted project,except for rubber parts.. I use BMF sometime,sometimes they just don't fit very well,I think maybe due to some grease on surface..😓 thank you for your watching!! cheers! 😊

[@sujojojojo6090]

Superb build. ...yeah I have 3 or 4 fujimi car model kit and facing the same difficulty to marriage body and chasis. Tamiya car model kit just much easier to build for me 😀

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

yes, it is a bit tricky for this model, the result is good for me..hope you like it! 😊

[@stevehoulihan726]

The finish on that paint is nothing short of incredible. Edit: One question. The finished model shows like a black around the windscreen chrome which simulates the rubber. How did you do that?

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

thank you.. hi..a black around the windscreen chrome was paint by paint brush...I am glad you notice that!!😊

[@stevehoulihan726]

@@MRLINSSCALEMODELING You did that after the chrome? Must have been a very thin brush!

Very nice 👍🏻 😎

Very beautiful build...

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

Thank you very much!!

[@vicsminiatures7949]

Well done. I like the finish on the body. I'm currently building this kit and I noticed some differences between yours and mine. The headrests in my kit are more like what you fabricated. Also the back window on mine has the additions you made. Quick Question: How did you know that you could get the body completely built before you put the chassis on it?

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

hi,glad you got a better kit! about your question:I always test part fitting with masking tape before gluing parts together...in this case, there are gaps between the chin and body, I decide to put this parts together and fill the gap,that will make painting easier. another suggestion:you can assemble the exhaust pipe after body and chassis marriage,that would be easier! thank you for watching and happy modeling!!

You think this kit isn't easy to build? Try the Enthusiast Kit of the Fujimi Dino! I wish you lots of fun... that kit makes me mad. 😝

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

ha ha..I do think this is not a easy kit to me..the old kits always give us surprise...cheers😊😊

Hello when you polished model with sand paper did you use only water ? Or did you use water with dish soap?

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

Hi,just water!sometimes I even do dry sanding , depend on the condition of the surface..but I always clean the model by using water with dish soap.sheers!😊

[@pjgdrvbyvyvjjtvfcow4056]

@@MRLINSSCALEMODELING thank you for your reply :) Have you ever used micro finishers compound or tamiya? I love your modela but mr hobby compound is hard to get where I live

[@MRLINSSCALEMODELING]

Hi,I choose Mr.hobby and hasegawa compound just because my habit and it's easy to get where I lived.. I tried the finishers compound once,it is a high quality product! I also used tamiya finish compound for my mazda cosmo and dodge challenger, it works just great!!😊

Hola el fotograbado con que lo pegaste..? muy buenos todos tus trabajos... entre ayer y hoy vi todos los autos que hiciste. por eso me suscribí. ojala que sigas haciendo buenos autos, yo estoy queriendo comprar todos los accesorios para los tres Chevrolet que tengo para armar y personalizarlos, ya hace casi dos años que estoy buscando piezas para los tres autos, te vas a sorprender pero acá donde vivo (Argentina) es muy difícil encontrar material para autos en escala, todos le gusta mas tanques, barcos y aviones que autos... como yo soy fanático de Chevrolet estoy en busca de eso a ver si logro hacer todas mis locuras.

Hola, Adrian, no entiendo español, así que solo puedo leer y responder con un software de traducción, si hay algo mal, perdóname. En primer lugar, gracias por ver mi canal y espero que les guste. También me gusta Chevrolet, como tú, donde vivo (TAIWAN), es difícil y costoso comprar modelos de autos Chevrolet ... afortunadamente, tengo dos kits, uno es REVELL 1/25 1968 Chevy Chevelle SS 396, el otro es un chevy camaro z / 28 de 1970 1/2, estoy trabajando en ellos ...

yes,I use photo etched part for wipers,they are made from GOODSMILE RACING MSS-09: Wiper Set I assemble the wiper set with CA glue, the tools I use is a photo etched part too,but they are hard to find...you can use a needle or toothpick,they are working as well.. I hope these information are useful. cheers
