WillyChang 1814 Posted May 31, 2012 they're at www.crawlcanada.com although wierdly i usually visit thru Scale Builder's Guild Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
backtomyroots 432 Posted June 1, 2012 they're at www.crawlcanada.com although wierdly i usually visit thru Scale Builder's Guild Scale Builde'rs Guild is the new name I believe. As for painters, they can be tricky to find. www.bruiserbuilder.com (Forrest) does incredible work, he did my Mounty and it's truly stunning. He's had my Monster Beetle for a year and a half though, so he may be swamped, or forgotten me altogether ! There is a Tamiya Club member or two as well , but they can also be super busy !

j-man 0 Posted June 1, 2012 Not sure if your sorted for a painter? For me you will not get better than simon, "scorcher kid" simon was in the motor trade for over 20 years as a painter, working for BMW and the likes, He currently works in the aerospace industry painting and re-finishing parts for Rolls Royce, Boeing etc. Iv'e seen first hand some of his paint job's and they are incredible , he is too modest to show much in his showroom but if you ask nicely i am sure he will supply you some photo's of his work. Without a doubt it's scorcher Kid, iv'e seen lots of talented painters on here but you have to see simon's work to believe it...He lives in sheffield UK . cheers john Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

j-man 0 Posted June 1, 2012 Here's a photo my great mate Simon "scorcher kid" sent me a few week's back, he does many restoration paintjob's on old british bikes, check out his work on this Sunbeam fuel tank...??? As said before his work is second to none and he is far too modest to show anyone on TC just how talented he really is!!! Just don't get him talking about Star wars...LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
