Did you not get any yet?
surely someone lives nearby that would give you some to get going?
If I was living near you I would gladly give you some

BFassassin

dereck's shipment is running late by a week but he said as soon as he gets it he will let me know and then give me some.
the shop in town's shipment is also late but its in dublin today so he told me to ring about it tomorrow

Plug

Make sure you get 2 gallon's or more then you won't be having to make any more trip's. Lovely revo by the way;)

BFassassin

I'm back to home turf on this one: Armour.





Dragon's kit from the mid 1990s. Somewhat toylike, with massive hinges for hatches and whatnot, the fit wasn't fantastic.

Started it in Ireland in 1999 or so, it's been sitting in a state of semi-completion for many years. At this point, to hell with superdetails or correcting problems, I just filled in the hinges, and built the thing from the box. Worst I can say for it is I didn't get the seam lines on the back of the launchers. Oh well.

NTM

A Quick Google turned this up strangely enough..

Modelshop Newry


They have this in stock
Duraglo 16

Maybe one of the guys that use this forum would be good enough to try and meet up with you over the weekend and help you out?
Alternatively.
I think there are a few guys from "Navan Nitro Nutters" living in your area and would gladly help you.
I will pm you with an email adress and mobile number of a guy to contact.;)

BFassassin

thanks for that mate

Plug

I,m liking it;)

tallus

looking clean heh
My new aluminium suspension bits I put on to the rush evo. New shocks too, dirt cheap courtesy of Green Model

Plug

They're very strong and look class;) Do greenhobby do traxxas or hpi

tallus

I dont think so but I got parts for my menace and rush evo there this morning, not schumacer, or hpi parts but they were more than adequate for what I was looking for. Why wait for a week for some small plastic part ! couldn't get hpi complete shocks for the rush evo only in parts from what I found, but I got 2 brand new Very very similar shocks at a knock down price. I mean they were like 3mm shorter than the original hpi ones, I dont mind that at all Beats the crap out of waiting AND paying for shipping.
*edit*
I did buy the purple suspension bits from HPI

BFassassin

2 whaite stipes like the ford GT or a mustang would look cool.
Like masking tape?

coolwings

Art shops sell Masking Liquid.
Does the job great.
Plays havok with brushes.
Wash brushes with water immediately or you'll be using new brushes every time.
