For Christmas I recieved all 6 of the Batman kits from Mobius. I figured that I'd start with the Riddler because he looked easy. Well, Holy sore eyes Batman!!!!! There are over 200 question mark decals on him. Not to mention that they do not respond to solvent probobly due to age. I had to use setting solution and a heat gun on every one of them. But, It was fun to build and I'll move on to the next one.

I have been collecting parts for doing this for years. It's the revell kit with "scratch built Posts". Had the Model car garage engine dress up kit that matches our car. The engine pic was taken before the kit was finished. Hardest part was getting the green close and in certain light it looks good but in other light it looks different. Anyway , my wife was blown away and loves it!

I built this for my Sons Birthday. I’ll be adding a sound card that will play the recording of the actual car doing the U turn. Hope you like the pics.

I built this kit for my son’s birthday. It will be going on a base depicting a blacktop U turn during a rally. What a pleasure to build. Everything fit perfectly, even the driver and co-pilot had position able arms. I put the driver looking left while counter steering to the right with his arms. That’s how the display willbe. Decals went on perfectly with some needing a littlesetting solution. The kit came from Europe.

AMT Snap Corvette Built By My Granddaughter

I just gave her a nice big brush with a paint cup of future floor wax, told her to paint the whole car except for the tires. We let it sit overnight and it looks like this! Lol -
Trying to start them young. She is 5 and has built a few snap kits with Pap. I let her brush paint where she can and she also applied the Future clear coat. Pap helps her push the parts together they are too tight for her. I make her locate the parts on the instructions and find them in the box. Pap trims them for her. Great times!

Lots of flash and ill fitting parts but a fun kit to build. Gotta love these old kits! Painted Daytona Yellow

This was another fun build. No Chrome in the kit. All metallics done with metalizers and Molitow shot through the airbrush. Paint is tamiya mica blue. The hardest part was the mold separation lines on the 2 piece back tires.

I added bigger pics as requested. Thanks

I built this as a kid back in 1973. This time I think that I did it Justice! Paint is tamiya metallic orange with testors wet look clear from the rattle can. a lite polish with tamiya compounds. Wheels are done with metalizer aluminum, tires were given a flat clear coat. black parts are semi gloss black.

I'd love to see a 1/12 kit of the current red bull F-1 cars. A quick search reveals no kits of current F-1 cars.
