Great way to start off!   

[Jantrix]

Wow. That is some impressive work for an experienced modeler, let alone someone new to the hobby. Obi Wan has taught you well.

 

Now - how did you do the camo pattern on the truck?

[acmiaz]

Welcome to car modeling you are off to a great start.

[rmvw guy]

Nice number of models, that would be one a month. I love the '50 Chevy pickup.  You had an excellent first year, congratulations and Happy New Year of Modeling for 2013.  

[Erik Smith]

Nice variety and quality!  I like the four door Skyline.

 

Getting a little brighter light set up will help us see them

[TooOld]

I wouldn't have known you were new to the hobby if you hadn't told us !     Excellent work and good luck in 2013 !

[modelmike]

Thanks guys... sorry for the photo setup but it was a spur of the moment thing...Jantrix the camo effect was a accident i used a roll of medical grade plaster wrapping like the kind they set arms and legs..

[Albie D]

Great stuff! I like your style. The Bow Tie van sits perfect!

[realgone58]

What a great first year! I especially like the kustom Chevy pickup.

[ryanm]

[slusher]

[modelmike]

Thank you guy's for the positive feed back... I hope you all have safe and fun New Year!!!!

[Sixties Sam]

Great first year!  The Impala is my favorite, they are all sharp.

[modelmike]

My favorite is the Chevy 3100 it gave me alot of areas to add custom touches.. but the the Merc drager was the fun one....

[Bartster]

Nice variety and quality! I like the four door Skyline.

Getting a little brighter light set up will help us see them

l agree with all above ! I think the focus of your light could be up front a little more. Too much "back lighting" makes the cars too dark to see well. Nice output for the year, carry on !

Thanks again for a great year everyone... i'm looking foward too many more.... 

[Dyno Davo]

Wow, what a portfolio for your rookie year, the Chev pickup gets my vote

[modelmike]

Yeah.... the 3100 seems to be the overall favorite...
