[@gradyzans9823]

Love the tips and tricks. Love the absence of negativity!

[@oldsaerotech1167]

I learn something new with just about every video.

[@scottsteel2395]

I honestly never would have thought of that. What a totally COOL looking grill. Here come the open grills. Thanks for an AWESOME tip.👍

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Improves the build 100%............... 👍👍👍

[@RJDCR]

one of the best kits for this , is the AMT '55 Cameo...ya jus go thru the back w/ yer dremel...works great

[@rogerwachal3718]

I also use sanding sticks,and emery boards

[@christopherchace3764]

Luka your model collection is awesome. I had a lot of models I wish I would have saved over the years.. thank you for your videos......🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍👍

[@c.d.scalemodels9198]

Grey tip Luka, I actually use that same technique when I sand my tires on my kit tires….. very slowly & it works great Luka…… thanks so very much!!!!!!!

[@kabreigny]

Thank you Luka for sharing and explaining the way you do this. Learn something new every time.

[@kevinzilly7201]

Great job on the girl!!

[@hbkwheels6603]

I recently started getting into model kits. Due to the old modified kits coming back. Your channel has been super helpful for tips and ideas. Thank you.

[@davidshell1738]

What a difference that makes! Patience looks to be the key. Thanks

[@timarthur9425]

Great job on the grill brother been doing this for some 50 years or so on my builds. Thanks for sharing. Great channel watch you all the time.really like the way you mix it up a tad peace

[@dcwasp]

Glad I ran across this video, as my Revell '70 Mustang grille will receive this treatment. Awesome 👍👋✊

[@markbatson5307]

Great tip bro! Taking your time is definitely the key!

[@modelcarswithglen.]

Dude you inspire me to build better and up my game

[@blainefrenette3520]

What a great idea. Thank you.

[@paintnamer6403]

Before I commented I did this to the Revell 1956 Chevy grill and that went well. I can see how to do it for perfection and this is used for a weathered build so a missing strand works in this case.The Revell '55 grill is much thinner and starts to take on a punched screen door effect. These are kits that I built in the '70s and now are being rebuilt as beaters with stories in them. I know you're a big Revell '56 Chevy fan if not the tri-five series.

[@davez3838]

Nice tip Thanks again for sharing!!! 🏆😎

[@michaelcooke2559]

Nice tip. Thank you.

[@deepjunkgarage]

Really good tip that lends itself to most grills, I've done the Revell 69 Camaro and the MPC Grumpy's Vega so far ..... and if I keep procrastinating I'll have been working on my Camaro as long as you have. LOL 🍻

[@sericono9077]

This looks very nice and real. Thank you for sharing this useful tip.

[@hungryhoss1379]

Damn that’s the first time I have ever seen this… Love the internet. Very cool look… I am commenting to early to see how this is done… Will comment again after the video is over.

[@RussellModelCars]

This has always been one of my favorite mods people do to kits. It adds so much to the look of them. When I did this the first time it was a 30s truck and I was nervous to start but when but it was done it added so much to it. I think it cracked in a few places since it was so thin but still looked good. I hope you get that Camaro done for the acme it will look really cool.

[@Jeffsmodelgarage]

Nice tip and lots of sanding but the end result is worth it thanks for sharing luka I’ve burned thru a few grills over the years lol🤦👍🏻

[@CovertOperation13]

Nice ! I'll be doing this on my next build. Thank you.

[@njcivicwagon1]

Cool tip Luka thanks for sharing

[@supersportmodelshop729]

What a Awesome tip Luka!

[@LevyHappyClapper]

Worked great, would not have had the courage to attempt this if not for your video.

[@VengefulBatz]

Thank you for the vid! I was looking this How-To for my 67 Impala grill. Its chromed out.. but i didnt think blackwash would do it justice.

[@shawnevans58]

Good way of doing it, i do it in a much harder way

[@jean-guylebreton5332]

Thanks a lot for the great tip,it’s gonna help me out ,quite a bit

[@robertjutson4640]

Good tip Luka! Also a good set of needle files will help clean up the grill.

[@jeffyoung8726]

Hey thanks Luka, great video!

[@trevoursamudacollections5796]

[@tonyorwick492]

WoW that is so cool Luka thanks for sharing such a nifty detail video

[@pizzamanmodels9989]

Great video Luka. Thanks for the tip. Stay well!

[@alancyr3100]

Ive done that modification a couple times, love the look you get when your done. I learned it in SAE a long time ago.

[@johnlanger7852]

I love this mod will have to use it on my next build

[@RJDCR]

been doin' this for yrs , great tip

[@joseantonioteixeira7974]

Very good tip !

[@kingranch1962]

Great how to. Thanks

[@cliffthompson4004]

I was literally gonna do this to my 69 Camaro prostreet I am working on, I may also redo my roll cage. Also looking forward to meeting you and a bunch of other builders At ACME show in Nov!

[@georgemcdermott7115]

That is awesome , great tip.

[@shanew.williams]

Great How To.

[@JHartModelworks]

Great tip

[@garyparker2969]

Very VALUABLE TIP !! Thank You Sir n God Bless.

[@joelvale3887]

Kool idea!

[@ricotherican2814]

Awesome

[@jasongriffin8849]

I do the same with my grills. The only difference is that I'll use an Emory board (nail file) to finish it up after the sanding disc gets it down. I'm too clumsy to use the knife like that. Lol!

[@jonathanbroome5021]

Can You help me out please. What was that stuff you said takes care of the grill if you can't thin it? Photo edge? And in one of your vids you showed a way how to get the black on a chrome grill. You said it was black wash. I googled "black wash" and nothing came up. I also went to Tamiya website and I couldn't find it. Can you tell me what that is and where I can get it? I'm new at this. Thank you

[@eck5855]

First time I tried this and the grille cracked on my 69 camaro motor city. I also bought a cheap dremel from harbor freight that has no speed control so I used light pressure. Do I need a different dremel or does this only work on thick pieces

[@davez3838]

Great tip's thanks like the 69 love to see more looks like a great build.

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

Thanks

[@davez3838]

[@kevinzilly7201]

[@kevinzilly7201]

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

LOL, OH Kevin. You are so ZILLY!

[@toecutter8002]

I was doing my grill and I took a little bit to much off and the grill flew out and away.

[@kevinzilly7201]

Grid

[@kengriffith9289]

Where do you get your wide tires

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

Those are those 2 piece soft plastic slicks that use to be in allot of Revell kits in the 80s and 90s. Everyone hated them. Not me. I got a bunch from everyone that just tossed um.

[@beekeeper7535]

Opening the grill makes the front end look more realistic.

[@ungurdani8346]

[@LTV_inc]

Grinding over a finished model is like cutting your hair over the pasta………
