  5. Great start Dann!
  6. That paint job is awesome!
  7. The detail in that frame is amazing! You are going to have to leave the body shell off now to display the work.
  8. Thanks Dann I hope to enjoy the journey too Thanks Stay, that's a really nice offer, I'm not near Coventry, I'm down in Essex, however, I am going to try to make a screen out of chocolate packaging plastic!
  9. Thanks Sonny! A bit of progress yesterday... boot lid doesn't seem to exist in the real road going cars, so I've filled the gaps the cowel has sink marks - which means I loose the grain - never mind! the dash looks nothing like a real car dash, Im half tempted to make a new one, maybe a quarter tempted, but I'm most likely going to leave it as is... The fuel filler point appears in pictures on both sides of the car, and not in the place of the original, so I've made new ones the interior tub has had the seat cut out - no turning back now! the second but last picture shows what's left of the steering wheel after cutting it free from the sprue - it fell apart! the shell didn't come with a tail pipe outlet, so one will be cut out... onwards & upwards
  10. That Callaway looks great, it's a hard kit to find in the UK
  11. The SGS is nice!
  12. That volvo is great! Quite a haul this year!
  13. Great builds, a busy year for you ? Maybe you are efficient, and don't make mistakes.
  14. Strange looking car, but a sharp build!
  15. Muscle car heaven there! Great builds
  16. That's a great build of a funny looking pick up!
  17. Your car looks angry! Great little build!
  18. I'm sure you can sneak another one in before the end of the year! Looks great!
  19. Killer build, those wheels... With that stance, looks great
  20. Really sharp build, Those gauges! I thought it'd be a slight green time, but they look like radar scanners - quite cool!
  21. Cool car, nice colour!
  22. Silky smooth paint job!
  23. Here are some picks, the new kit (for the new windscreen) has the same seep pockets for lights. the lights that come with the kit (both the old and the new) are awful The windscreen is unfortunately smashed! Interesting thing about the new kit, is that it appears to be a re-release - with new box art - then I looked closer, the image has the lights closed! Inside the new kit box, as part of one of the sprues, there were closed headlamp covers! never mind...
  24. Thaks JC! The original kit did not come with any "Closed" headlight squares So I made some a few years ago - with thick plastistruct, and it left a huge gap around the closed lights.... ....and they were noticable Underflush! So I got some thin plastistruct and made them a tighter fit, then, as they were slightly overflush, I sanded them back Thanks Dann I'll TRY - my old set up was in a converted garage - so separate to my main house, meant i could use sprays when ever i like, but conversley; it was too hot in the summer & too cold in the winter, now i'm in-doors, but I cant spray solvents when ever I like!
