Very, very nice Steve! Great detail. I would like to see this one in person.
-
Very sorry to hear this horrible news Kevin. Prayers go out for you and your family from me. I can't imagine what you are going through.

Not sure if everyone knows the story about this guy, (I am assuming there is only one guy in a Batman costume driving a Lambo but you never know....lol). He made a bunch of money by selling his business. He dresses up as Batman and visits kids in the hospital. All in all, a fairly noble gesture. I give him props for it

There is a ton of detail for a 1:43 model!! That is a great looking model. Well done!!!

1/12 2010 Shelby GT500 "Super Snake" COMPLETED in Under Glass
Nacho Z replied to Kennyboy's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Man-o-man is this thing sharp! I have been following it since day one and just had to take a minute to comment. You are doing a very nice job on it. Thanks for sharing! -
Welcome to the forum Joe. I am new here myself and very glad I joined. The other guys have covered it very well, learn as you go and enjoy yourself as you build. I bet even the best builders can find at least one flaw or one thing they wish they would have done better on each build.

I am in 100% agreement with James. I do the same thing. The smaller the area, I mean really small like lettering tires, the more I tend to clean the brush. With the drop or two of paint on the brush it seems to dry on the brush faster. Having the thinner on the brush helps to keep it "liquid" longer.

Hey Juan, I think you and I have the same taste in models. I have this kit and will be watching your build progress. Good luck!
-
Beautiful build Jason!!! This may be the first time I have seen it done in white and I have to say it does look good.

Fruit Wagon !

How cool is that! Nice job on both models. I really like the splash of color the melons give to the truck. It really catches your eye. Did you make the melons or were they already made? -
Wow Carl, that is a beautiful Mustang! She looks good in blue.
-
Love it!! What a great looking build!
-
That is some fantastic craftmanship!! Beautiful build of a beautiful subject.
-
Again, thanks for the comments, I appreciate them!

Wow, what a beautiful Camaro!!! Love that paint job!

Tamiya 1/24 1982 Renault 5 Turbo Rally (Twin's Build)
Nacho Z replied to BMX Addicts's topic in WIP: Model Cars
They are looking good Juan! No one can argue with your results. For me, masking is my least favorite part of building models. I just don't like it. Keep up the good work, I enjoy following it. -
Thanks for the comments guys! As Tom said, this is Revell's Snap-Tite kit. It was just a quick build and it gave me the chance to try something new, (gold base coat). BTW, I really like the way they paint turned out over the gold. I will try some other colors this way.

Absolutely gorgeous!! What a beautiful Z.

Zr-rr finished

NICE!!! Looks like you did a great job on it. -
Beautiful color and shine! Something about that blue and gold wheels that I really like. Nice job!
-
This model was a quick "slump buster" for me. Minimal work on the chassis and interior. I had never used gold as a base coat before. I wanted to see what it would do with Tamiya TS52 - Candy Lime Green. I also like to play around with lighting, backgrounds, etc. Here are the results. Hope you like it! Same angle, softer light. I also took pictures on a black background. I'll share two to let you see how it changes how you see the car.
-
Glad you finished it! I think it turned out very nice. It is such a beautiful car that it looks good no matter what. BTW, I'm watching the F1 race as I type this, (I DVR'd it).

This has to be one of my favorite builds of this car. I really like the color and stance. Nice job on the interior as well. I agree with the others, cool display board!!!
-
Man Juan, I'm sorry to hear you are having so many problems with this car. I have been watching the build and it looks like you were really enjoying it until recently. I was too! Hope you finish it and good luck with the rest of it.

I have been looking for this kit for some time but was never able to find it. Recently saw a picture of Steve Allemand's beautifully built example. I e-mailed him and he was gracious enough to e-mail me information about the kit as well as some helpful hints on building it. As luck would have it I found one on an auction site and it was a "Buy it Now". I did! I just received it yesterday.
