This was my first time venturing into 1/25. I had put it off forever, since all my others are 1/24 and I wanted them to match. But I bit the bullet anyway, and the difference is minuscule really. This definitely ain't the greatest but hey, first for everything. First time doing bare metal foil window trims too.. I normally freehand paint them. Don't have any outdoor photos, it's gone midnight haha. Maybe tomorrow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

My work desk really needs a tidy too.

 

 

 

Gonna post another build I did, a Mugen CRX and then that'll do for tonight.

Comments and criticisms appreciated, cheers!

Great looking builds (just checked out your CRX). Your workdesk needs a tidy? You ougt to see mine. Let me know when you can't find your desk!

Nice clean build....

Great model, the '67 is one of my favorites and you did it up right.

Great looking Chevelle. I have had this kit in my collection since the first issue. It's somewhere in the garage with about 200 more built, started and unbuilts. Some day I hope to have my own space to build and store models. By the way, your build space is very tidy compared to mine, and I just cleaned up.

Great job on the 67 Tomo! YOu did a good job on the Bare Metal Foil for as first timer as well. It takes some practice to really be comfortable with BMF but your work looks like it was a seasoned pro. Can't wait to see what you do next.

By the way....if my workbench were that tidy I'd be a happy camper

Thanks everyone, really appreciate it!

 

And wow, I dread to see your workspaces, I'm a tad OCD

I have to say the outside pictures do it more justice! Nice clean build and details.

 

I would hate for you to see my work area if you think yours is messy!

Very nice Tomo. Love the paint job. The detail work is nice too.

Really nice. Are you sure you're just a year into this hobby? Keep it up, you've got the talent.

Cheers lads! 

And cheers Tom, yeah it's only been a year, but I owe it all to things I've found on the internet. I probably still wouldn't be spray painting if it weren't for it!
