OOOHHHH that's gonna look GOOD !!!

Nice work!! Love the trucks.

wow......

Gotta agree. My favorite is still the military issue .45 auto.

You do that to?? LOL!! I can still hear that quote' " Who the #@!! puts ketchup on a hotdog?".. made sense to me..

X2. That 454 SS is a pretty nice kit!!

I had to keep emptying the moisture trap on my airbrush while I was painting this one. The Future went down a lot easier than the base coat.

Good point.

Good to hear your doing well. I saw the pics of your impala in an earlier post. Nice looking car!! Looking forward to seeing more of your builds in the future. I enjoy following along on your build threads.

That is a beautiful paint job Kevin. One of my favorite colors.

I used to build for the fun. I would get a kit and start in on it, not caring about accuracy. Then i discovered all kinds of reference materials, and the guys and gals on the forum, and aftermarket companies with all kinds of cool add on parts. and people who are willing to give advice. I got so caught up in trying to build the"perfect" model that i never finished anything. I need to get back to that time when building a kit was fun. I know it was my own fault i got caught up in the super detailing, and its a hard habit to cure, but modeling at the level that i've tried to maintain has started to lose its luster. I need to get back to that wide eyed wonder that used to drive my enjoyment of this hobby......

Nice effect!! I'll have to remember that trick.

Thats Cool!! How did you do the scales on the fenders?

That is SWEET!! The lines of the car are complimented by the black paint, just the right amount of rake. Stock looking "sleeper". Are the rear rims the kit pieces? WOW!!!

This is gonna look GOOOOOD!!!!!

I think those older body styles of Gremlin looked better because they didn't have those huge billboard bumpers.

I finally found the perfect shade of 70's green for my build. This thing is gonna SCREAM 70's.... lol

Thanks!!

I think the paint will polish out just fine. Love the color!

I use that silicone rubber tubing Cut to your need diameter, make a small connector, and presto. Won't react with the tire over time either. I get mine from work, but you can pick this stuff up pretty cheap at any craft store.

Quick question. We can use other wheel/ tire combo's but how about attachment methods for different wheels? I can make the kit supplied axles work, but I have to slice-n-dice the kit supplied rims.

I hope they find out who did it and return the favor....

I had a buddy stationed on a sub tender at Holly Loch, Scotland. He used to watch them get under way and count the seconds between the sail going by, till he saw the tail plane pass. He was Thunderstruck at just how BIG that sub was. I think all he had seen up to that point was fast attacks, no boomers.
