  1. Supee cool ride! Great quality finish
  2. Amazing transformation!
  3. Beautiful bodywork!
  4. Cool build! Well executed piggie
  5. Cool build so far! The tape and rivet tool is a funky idea, looks great!
  6. This kit is fighting me! I've been adding the detials - like the mesh covering the holes (vents) and the clear parts - Elmers doesn't quite hold, as the parts are not fitting well / twisted. So it's been glued, striped & reglued with Loctite Super glue (the runny stuff) and its been slow work. then for final assembly, there was aclash between the rear view window and the interior tub. so had to use some kitchen tissue for masking & cut off the bits from both sides, then blow out the debris & clean the clear bits (for the 3rd time) with a plastic clean & shine. This has probably been the worst engineered kit i've ever built, I'll be glad to see the back of it... Hopefully within a week this'll be done...
  7. Absolutely shocked to see this on the road in real life! In my village too - Danbury, Essex, UK... This is the Gordon Murray T.50 (Tamiya recently released a kit of it) Risked my life getting a shot of it in my rear view I had to google how much its worth when I got home - £2.8Million GBP including taxes... And the plates are "Fan" - quite apt....
  8. Cool engine! If the rest is up to that quality, its going to be a fantastic build!
  9. Its a lovely build, loads of detail, probably why they cost so much, but it is an expensive kit!
  10. Cool builds, amazing decal work!
  11. Super cool audis! I think clear-coating over the decals keeps them secure over the long term...
  12. Cool interior, the window nets look great!
  13. Beautiful build so far The das looks excellent with the 2 tone finish The body looks deep and glossy, well worth the effort of polishing! And i like all the wheels but would prefer the ones on the left too!
  14. Loved following along with your build thread, excellent mods
  15. Company car! Now have a PHEV Suv that meets CO2 requirements!
  16. Had to give my Focus ST back last week. I'm gonna miss it. Damn shame they stop production of these in 2025😐
  17. Beautiful build GalaxyG! Love the engine details.
  18. And I'm calling this one done! Was a fun little build, but I did mess up the clear coat quite badly... live & learn!
  19. Masked inside & out for window trim & front air intakes I made the masks for the front intakes with some exposure to the front face & wiped off the excess with Thinner. Not long left now...
  20. Was going to try to sand and polish this kit, but its too small with too many details, so I'll leave it as is. Started to do the final touches - masked and sprayed the window trim, and installing soe mesh for the front grille, unfortunately this PE mesh bends easily and then doesn't look great when reflecting lights - but its better than the decal provided with the kit.
  21. Looks like a cool kit! I'll follow along!
  22. Seriously impressive build from a monogram kit! Love all the details
  23. Well worth studying every pocture, loads of detail, cool build, many pics look like a real car!
