  1. cool , funky .. love it
  2. hmm tasty love the purple and bmf ... cant waight to see more
  3. that looks awsome and clean ,, great job !!
  4. omg soooo cool love it btw i had this kit in my hands , they had 2 versions of the kit in a store here .. but man it was pricey ... almost 60 euro !
  5. thnx dan and i understand .. but well its too late the styrene is cut and the idea is starting to ..and well ... it will be kind of different from your average lifted model .. but i understand what you mean i cut out the whole front and side bars ....the whole engine bay will become clean / smooth and show put 2 pieces or round styrene in the stock grille fits perfect so its all square and straight .. now the front splash pan earea needs to be exactly as low as the sides and rear so when its dropped its the same hight all around ... i will change more style wise but this is just the basic set up hood fits nice ...
  6. thnx and not sure yet .. when i held some wheels on the back of teh wells it kind of looked cool like the well is swooping away .. so for now i will leave them alone until i really know what wheel and how and .... but maybe i will yes
  7. lol thats cool well a dutch guy found your description online i could make the green one i posted i have that grille .. but i wont i dont like the look of that old ford grille , everything is boxy on the body and imo the grille is too round sanded off the taillights and reshaped it so the bodyline just runs trhough from sides into the tailgate ...i will make custm tails below the tailgate closed up the mirror holes .... i could make it a slammed woody ? with real wood on the side !
  8. thnx guys !!! and well you cant really find a lot info on this kit .. like said i got it in a shoebox without the boat and trailer .. on the description it says its from revell germany .. found the boxart online btw !! and somebody in holland found this for me > The final kit released in this tooling family was issued in 1990 as part of the combo kit Yamaha Formula One Team with a trailer and racing boat. This issue marks the biggest departure from the original tooling as the mounting holes for the roof light bar and the CB antennae are covered over, the gas can carrier is omitted (the extra hinges on the body remain), and the wheels and tire are new for this issue (five-hole swirl mags and Goodyear GT Radials shared with the Monogram eighth generation F-series kits). Molded in white and chrome with clear "glass" and kit number 7241. but well not really something of real interest because i will use the "kit" as i please hahahaha anyway its a bit smoother again shaved the doorhandles (need bondo) shaved the surround of the skylight in the roof , i will keep that open and place the glass in the open position , nice extra detail when done shaved the rain gutters above the doors and redid the panellines ... the holes in the door need to be closed those where for mirror brackets
  9. yuup thats the direction i'm going , already started the ..... raised with big tyres is cool but getting the right tyres .. hmm hard i have nothing .. so went for the slammed minitruck style .... flattened the sides ,took forever the styrene is soo tough .. used my files and then sanded .. reshaped the hinge bloks above and under the taillights where the spare tyre frame should go on you can see how yellow the styrene has become .. nice as a sanding guideline next job is flattening the roof window surround and closing the roof
  10. yes i could try something .. but there is a chance this build will turn into a full custom thing so i might .... thnx for now cut out the wells , bottom doorline and front bumper pan what came off . looks a bit like a bodykit haha cut out the inner wells at the front .. i want to do some reaserch and maybe do it minitruck style ....
  11. hey all , starting on this revell ford bronco .. Now i got this kit in a shoebox with the build description , it supposed to be a kit of the bronco with a trailer and powerboat , i only have the bronco and not the trailer and boat .. the plastic has become yellow , like from age ?? i dont know the kit is from 1991 going from the all yellowed build description. The kit is fairly simple to put together but not real bad in detail what i got in a shoebox (got this from a guy who stopped with building due to health issues ) the grille is cool its already open .. the headlights suck they are one piece and no glass in the kit for those .. so maybe open them up and make reflectors and cust glass to put in would be cool the body , i hate the shape of the wheel wells , now i cant really find good pictures of this kit or the boxart , i did find one other kit and those flares supposed to resemble / be rubber ? anyway my plan is to cut open the wheel wells and get some cool wheels on it and make it a bit rough looking .. i ven think changing the body like where the hardtop on the bed sits and make that whole with the body so its one piece could be cool ..not sure yet the roof window will be closed up i dont like that really .. overal it needs to becomea bit smoother overall , bit custom the tails are also a cast so i will make some taillight myself ..
  12. what a cool combo with the van and trailer .. awsome job(s) !!!
  13. awsome 3-some looking great
  14. stunning and clean !!
  15. looking great .. and well the hairpins do ad to that volksrod look ...
  16. yes i know what you mean with the nice weather i also got a bit of a build dip .. have not even started a new project .. been moving dirt in the garden .. want to build a big wood deck / lounge earea in the back .. so i knwo what you mean but man that rear looks sweet .. what i also love it you took a less detailed and "good" kit and made it .... great .. loving the blower .. going to be one sweet model !!
  17. omg .. thats ... i hope you got everything sorted now !! i can imagine this becoming a case of putting stuf in boxes and having to sort everything out .. get your life back on track .... with rebuilding and .. but glad to see you back
  18. cool !!! the Michael Moskov hearse wagon !!!
  19. yeaahhh ! proud father taking pics of his building son cool !! .. mine isnt that interested
  20. so in the end your better of buying the fujimi garage tool kit and build the garage yourzelf .. and let your imagination run free
  21. i think for the price of that joes kit .. you can build 2 garage dioramas from scratch and make then even better .. but that said i'm still curious to see the content of the kit and also a build dio from this kit .. never saw that tbh ....
  22. dude thats too cool !! just loving this one !!
