SpikeSchumacher Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 While not auto related, this for me is my "pride & joy" model. Built for my late father-in-law as a birthday present. Looking at it now there are things I would have done differently/better, but at the time this was where my modeling skills were at....

Agent G Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Thank you Ron! I considered that build a true "labor of love". Mathias that is a fine Corsair. You really captured the essence of VF 17 operating from a jungle strip. G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmpsebring Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 My pirate girl was taken down. Yes it did show a single breast. Sorry if someone found a pea-size breast so offensive.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roncla Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 My Pocher Alfa gives me the most satisfaction as it fought me from start to finish and I end up getting the better of it. The fit and finish of the parts for what was called a premium kit was a shock after being bought up on a diet of japanese kits. If it wasn't for my little Emco Unimat 3 lathe with all its attachments I never could have finished it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHDrew Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 This one is too easy for me. Probably never going to make anything this detailed again in my life. Corvette Grand Sport 1/12th scale mostly scratch built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raul_Perez Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 This is my favorite of all time. Caution, not model car related. G Very nicely done!! I too like building WWII figures and vehicles. Later, This actually worked out kinda funny. I only built one plane. Then I gave it away, I really liked this one. Lots of scratch building and learning new stuff. Hosted on Fotki I usually build cars and this, although still unfinished, is the one I really like. Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Scott Very cool stuff, Scott!!

doomcrew Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Here are three of my fave car models. A Pro-Street Austin in Metalflake Red. Working suspension and an award to it's name. Then, a 1/16th Dragster, with many machined and scratchbuilt parts. And finally a model that caused me such a headache, a resin bodied 39 Merc that ended up with a paint job as smooth as glass.
