Kustommerc Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Lookin Great Cruzer ! I'm sure with Your attention to Paint and detail, it'll be a Beauty in person ! Good work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chillyb1 Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Well, that's just terrible. I'm sure my fellow modelers will agree that you should probably just give up the hobby before you embarrass yourself further with shoddy, sloppy work like this Starliner. I mean, you can hardly tell it's a car! Sell the supplies and get out while you can. Of course, that's just the jealousy talking (and maybe a little of the envy, too). That is a beautiful model and so well executed I'm stunned into near speechlessness. I'm new to this forum and I spent last evening going through your WIP thread for this build and I enjoyed every second of it. Time well spent for a modeler who aspires to your level of quality. AWESOME WORK, Cruz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris coller Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Holy chrome Batman! Cruz that came out simply awesome. Much like everything else you build, top notch work my friend. I aswell want to see this in person. The color is a very good choice with wide white walls. Very complimentary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Thanks alot! Now I have to get a mop and wipe up all the drool! That may be one of the best builds I have EVER seen! No bs!! Did you use photoetched parts for the grill and badges? What is that color? How about underhood and chassis shots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually take my pictures from certain angles and a bit out of focus, that will make anything look good. Seems like you have done it again, that's a beautiful model! Got any shots of the engine?

JayVee Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Looks excellent, those whitewalls are perfect. How did you do the gold Starliner script? Paint? Gold foil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Kern Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Simply beautiful in every way, Cruz. That Dupli-Color shade of red is also pretty close to one of my favorite Tamiya colors, Mica Red. Another masterpiece there, my friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
