German Armour Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) Hello everyone! As the title says. Can I get a model done? I haven't had the "mojo" for the last while and so I'll try an easy kit. Tamiya's new 1/48 Panther D The paint scheme I was thinking of painting is dunkelgelb with large swashes of green. Does anyone know how to make a picture smaller?? Edited December 16, 2020 by German Armour 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stef N. Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Welcome aboard German Armour. Looking forward to seeing your build. For smaller pictures. Go to edit your post and hover the cursor over the picture. Press Ctrl and then right click and a little editing box pops up. One of the options is to change size and then you reduce the pixel rate accordingly. Good luck.👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

German Armour Posted January 4, 2021 Author Share Posted January 4, 2021 Here's a question for you all, what do you use for removing extra superglue? I was a little to generous with the stuff and now need to remove the squish-out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Would Naptha or Acetone work (nail polish remover)Ive used both on my skin, but not sure how it would affect the plastic ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but it's in a bad spot, in the corner on the front, between the metal hull and the little curved piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
German Armour Posted January 5, 2021 Author Share Posted January 5, 2021 Also, from looking around the internet, how would acetone be? It says to test it on the plastic to see if it doesn't damage the surface 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to this it should work ? https://lifehacker.com/how-to-remove-super-glue-from-practically-anything-5436362/amp Most brands also sell a C/A De-Bonder to loosen or break a connection. You may want to try that route ? https://www.hobbylobby.com/Crafts-Hobbies/Model-Kits/Tools-Adhesives/Un-Cure-Debonder/p/80859097 The add is just an example no connection to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, something cool, guess what superglue debonder is made out of?? Spoiler Nitromethane that fuels top fuel dragsters...
