  1. THese are killer builds especially that caterham
  2. Wow, i'm a little late to this thread, but wow. COuldn't agree more. In my country there are few classics. We have only one running 69 Mustang. No other first or second gen mustangs. Took a ride in the cleveland powered monster and it is nightmarish. SAme wiht a fully restored 68 Mustang i got to try in Thailand. Doesn't go very straight or ride very well. Yep, upgrade the bunch of them no matter what. Or just let them sit in the garage.
  3. Heres a piece thats nearly finished.

    BMW 635 csi

    Amazing. I dont know what i would do with a model liek that. Has so many finicky chrome+rubber bits that need painstaking detailing. Probably end up doing a restomod. SO kudos to you.
  6. Nice to see more of these crazy tuner builds coming along.
  7. Beautifully built. Which kit manufacturer is it by?
  8. who woulda thought somebody would finally build a nice superbird thats not a stock superbird? lovely.
  9. THis is quite a time consuming and exhaustive restoration. I would have probably gone the Mad Max route. Admirable patience.
  10. Unbelievable. Sure these are not the real things?
  11. I thought this car was self healing.
  12. YOu've done some epic paint jobs. And the wheels on the 2000gto look great. The stock wheels look anemic. May i ask where you go the tires?
  13. Love it. Its an excellent combo. i've used the same wheel son a 69 Charger. I think these look great on just about any 60's and 70's car.
  14. THis is outstanding. WIsh i could see the whole cutting process as well.
  15. The green one used to be a basic blue Hotwheels 1:64 model. It was a good casting that needed a bit of sanding to smoothen out the casting marks. And then i went crazy on the detailing. Placed next to a Minichamps 934 for comparison.
  16. THank you. Was my first attempt at modelling putty. Love the stuff now.
  17. Love it how you made sure the rust patina didn't carry onto the bumpers. BUt the dark underlying plastic has shown through. Amazing attention to realism.
  18. Decided to merge a bit of my favorite JDM tuning influences with a rock-star of a US sportscar. The original HOtwheels version was nice enough but had some glaring issues such as the big/little wheels sizes. Putting a smaller wheel on the rear meant there was a wider wheel gap and a slumped down rear end. This is the first time I work with modelling putty. Work done: Lowered. Wheel well filled in. Widebody conversion. Custom front splitter. Rocketbunny style rear spoiler. Side mirrors. Wheels cut and reassembled further out to sit flush with wider track. IMG_3597.xmp
  19. Amazing paintjobs and backdrops for the photography
  20. The paint and the cleanliness of the builds are amazing. ANd how do you build so many? This better be your job, cause you'll be making bejillions.

    My 2016

    THe metal finish on the Model A is truly something. COuld fool anyone into thinking its diecast metal.
  22. THe stance on those two cars are magnificent. Love the Camaro. How about more pictures? Also, what wheels did you use on the Camaro?
  23. I'd say those cars are real.
  24. YOur engine work is mind boggling.
