Beautiful color and a great job all around!

Oh my Lord, I think I’m in love!!! Absolutely beautiful! Wow!

Oh man, David, she is gorgeous!! I’m not sure that I’ve even seen one built in that color. It really goes well on that car. I’m glad to read that it went together well for you. This kit is second or third in my build queue. I have all of the KA items for it and am looking forward to the build. I can only hope mine turns out half as nice as yours!

I already commented earlier on FB but it bares repeating, I’ve been following this build and you crushed it. Unbelievably beautiful work!

I just read Justin’s post. The price I got it for is a little better than what was listed.

I have been trying to get this kit at a decent price for a long time. I just pre-ordered it from HLJ and I am happy as a pig in mud!!

She looks good so far! I will be following this one as I like these Tamiya 1:12 kits. Looking forward to seeing your next update.

Great looking dragster, Ian!

Wow, Fred!!! This is just fantastic!

Very nice, Ludwig! Great color and paint job.

This is going to be so cool, Tim! Look at those wheels! Amazing detail for 1:43. Looking forward to seeing it completed.

Welcome back to the hobby, Will! I’m happy to see you building again. The Buick turned out great, you obviously haven’t lost your touch. I’m already looking forward to seeing your next project!

Now that is a very cool model!! Great job on it. You gotta love it when the paint comes out so nice.

Welcome, John! There is a good group of modelers in the Morgantown and Fairmont area. Do you ever go to the model shows in Castle Shannon?

Happy to see the good news!! I always visit with Rich at the 2 Pittsburgh model contests and I fully intend to see him again this year!

Wow, Bruce!!!, this is exciting news. I’m happy for you! Can’t wait to see what you do with it. I know it will be nice!

I’ll be there! And I’m looking forward to seeing you, Rich. Can’t wait to see your new builds.

Thank you, Dale!

Thank you, Tom. On one hand the decals are the highlight of the kit and on the other had they are a let down of the kit. More information is in the build thread. The surface is a 2’ x 2’ piece of black acrylic. I have a large piece of poster board for the backdrop. All pics are taken with a Galaxy S9 phone. Very, very little to no processing is done on my pics. I shoot midday in my sunroom which is 3 walls, floor to ceiling of windows. Great natural light. Thanks for asking!

Rich, I sure do appreciate your comments on both of my Lancia threads! I believe you and I have the same modeling tastes!

Let’s see, a 1:12 Tamiya kit with a full Top Studio set and a 1:12 MFH kit......hmmmmmm, I’m guessing not your first rodeo!?!? This 250GTO is gorgeous!

What an amazing model, Scott! I love the Tamiya 1:12 kits, they provide so much opportunity for detailing. Looks like you took full advantage of that.

You're a heck of a builder, Dale! Another beauty from your workbench, she looks great!

Great looking Buick!

Here is my latest completion, the Revell of Germany 1977 Lancia Stratos WRC. I'm fairly confident that this is a reboxed Hasegawa kit. If you want to know all of the nitty gritty details about the build here is a link to the Workbench section:
