MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Here is the greenwood car repaired. Made it to Laguna Seca
  2. 1930 fordpickup, I do have a bunch of parts. Doors, a hood and several fenders. Most of the parts are fixed but were badly damaged. Boy I would love to build a full car but it is way out of my budget. The badly damaged car from Daytona, was totaled but was repaired. These cars are so expensive it is hard to total one ,and even that, I could not afford to buy the salvaged car.
  3. Well more cars. Like a 1:1 model kit. Ferrari race in Italy rained out. A lot of crashes. I’ll be busy for awhile. Another one being dropped off.
  4. Hello NitroMarty. Would this work for you for the motorcycle?
  5. Claude you have done another masterpiece. I see the Studio is not resting. Totally cool and of course striking. Great job
  6. I see no problem with making a profit from your hobby, although it turns into work if a deadline is set. Work that you may like but with a schedule, its still work. I said I would not turn my hobby into work. But I have to admit , I did. I was very lucky to be able to build 1/8 scale models for free. I get them and build them , put the info into a forum and the kit is free. The people giving me the models asked if I would custom paint some for special customers. Because I did not want to do it, I said $1000 per car. And guess what I had several people in Europe that wanted their cars custom painted. Really weird, but I did them and they loved them. Still getting requests to do more. No time right now because I’m working for Ferrari Racing, but maybe later. Here is a pic of one that went to England. It does take a little out of the enjoyment of building I think. It sells a little of your modeling soul. This is just my very humble opinion. Everyone has their opinions on the subject this is just my experience.
  7. Cool jag!
  8. I really love these cars! Coolest build
  9. Created jigs for fitting the front rails without a measuring machine, which are only 2 that measure the 296 cars. So rather than send them down to LA we can do it here and save them around $10,000 a car. This is just hot rod stuff.
  10. Took me awhile to get her this far. So far she’s fitting good.
  11. Thank you mustang 1989. I do have a pretty good collection of p51’s from the b series in revell, to the zoukei Muira . Tamiya 1/32 and airfix1/24. Have the new 1/48 airfix one also. That kit is pretty good. I’m foiling the whole plane except the wings. They are going silver. I’m not the best at planes but I do like building them. The award for the Pitts. I was pretty surprised.
