Got today 2 more wheel sets for sportscar lovers from Jack modelling: Porsche 356 wheels (with seperate hubs) and Campagnolo alloys for Fiat Abarths - very delicately printed:

Hard to imagine that you will really stop modelling, Ray - maybe you just need a break.
-
Trust me - you will !
-
You are raising the bar very high for all of us, Pierre - this is one absolutely fabulous model which you have upgraded with so many scratchbuild details - wonderful! I have been following along your WIP with great interest because these are my favourite subjects but I doubt I would ever come close to this level of perfection.

Fantastic model, Pierre - you raise the bar very high!

From the Japanese Hachette series made by Ixo - I think it was a present for the subscribers - caught this on ebay a few years ago: doors open, pop-up headlights and photo-etched wipers are a nice touch. Anyway, a little dechroming the tank caps and the rear lights will need a little Snake-Fu. Here it is as it comes out of the blister box (Hasegawa makes a kit version):

Fantastic, Pierre - can't wait to see the finished model!
-
yes, indeed - so careful masking will be necessary when spraypainting these.

They present all of their decals on a background that shows the same color as the real race car they are meant for.

Today in the mail : small parcel from Motobitz UK containing 3D-printed parts and some decals: transkit for the Belkits Ford Escort Mk I to turn it into the London-Mexico 1970 World Cup Rally winning car: and Jaguar E-Type racing alloy wheels meant for use with Revell's new E-type kits (will NOT be used for a Jag!):

Wonderful piece of nostalgia, Gary.

Saw this incidentially yesterday when browsing the catalog of my favorite internet dealer (Czech Republic) - it is already sold out. I think that this is a (modified ?) ex-Protar kit - at least it has the full Marlboro decals included. Here is a link to the Italeri homepage: https://www.italeri.com/en/article/818

x 2 !

Very nice, Pierre - the superbly detailed dashboard alone lifts the whole model to yet another level - marvellous !

2 long-gone JoHan models of long-gone car manufacturers: built in the mid 80's, sold a few years ago: 1960 Plymouth: and 1961 Oldsmobile:

A retro-designed musclecar in a typical could-have-been Mopar color - very nice, Mario!

Very nice Rich - covering the wole body with those decals certainly was no easy tasks ! -

Once again, a great model from you, Gary - keep them coming ! -
at last !- I was eagerly awaiting your next steps, Pierre - I will copy this method when doing my kit some time...

As a car nut from a very early age, I discovered the hobby in my teens - it is totally relaxing for me (with some frustrations from time to time) to create models of cars that are out of reach and I will never possess in real life. Interests have changed over the last decades to mainly classic sports and race cars, but the fun is always there.
-
Amazing artwork in this tiny scale, Janos !
-
IIRC, Testors reissued the Italeri version of the Daytona, as they did with Italeri's 250 GTO.
-
Very nice model of one of Pininfarina's all-time classic Ferraris, Brian - well done !
-
Superb model of this Italian icon, Mario - though not a factory color, your custom paint suits it very well, together with the golden wheels - just fabulous! Is this the Fujimi enthusiast model or the Hasegawa kit (have both, but stored away) ?
