  1. Cool project Jason, great photos!
  2. Great start Kevin, Cool project!
  3. I don't get on here as often as I'd like, and been asked about engines that I've been developing, but I realize not everyone is on FB either to see pics there ...so here are some pics of my most recent Monsters This is a major revamp of the Revell 1:25 Hemi LX V8, with most obvious addition of Supercharger, but the changes go much deeper, every single component has been modified and enhanced in some way, or else scratch built ...even the plain oil filter was replaced with a more detailed piece The poorly kit (plain blank) heads were completely redone, with casting details, and proper separate Hemi LX valve covers made from scratch, including bolts and twin spark plugs Proper coil-on-plug ignition coil packs were made, and cast separately also The supercharger with bespoke intake manifold is full of detailing, separate throttle body was scratch built, with tight fitting intake tube + cone filter (actually fits under kit hood), fuel rail and injector detail, and Hemi specific "through manifold" oil filler + cap Even the engine accessory plate is more detailed, with proper radiator hose spouts in place, and more detailing, with of course new serpentine belt + tensioner set-up for the supercharger Automatic VAG1 transmission still fits, but I adapted the T56 6 speed to fit now (as shown) I'm pretty proud of how this newest engine set turned out This is the supercharged (C6) LS V8 engine build Lots of hidden detailing improvements on this baby also, and of course the most obvious, supercharger Another LS project, just finishing up this one, a truly unique (since IRL never existed, that we know of?) and fun ...monster 9.45L V12 engine set transmission is a Tremec 6060 6 speed, and fully detailed block, heads, intake and simpler accessory belt system (A/C and P/S delete) with low hung Alternator, block hugger tri-Y headers, and tight fitting intake snorkel with cone filter (due to engines length), to (try) fit some hot rod engine bays?! LOL
  4. Amazing workmanship Andy! as others have said, the stance is spot on, and very nicely done, bravo!
  5. Enjoying the progress, looking really good!!
  6. dead thread I now, but instead of starting a new one ...this only thread found here under this subject found anyone here use this product? it looks promising for single time castings, not sure if heat is a concern though, depending on master material? http://store.composimold.com/composimold-food-contact-1/
  7. Thanks Tommy! Message reply sent
  8. Great work, Love the paint, Fantastic, Bravo!!
  9. Fantastic work Karsten, gotta luv a nice Jag model completed!!
  10. I really like the Singer Porsche style seats being made by Recaro, they'd be great for not just scale Porsche builds, but anything European, VW, BMW, etc. IMO So I decided to make some myself, they are 2 very different styles, one the bucket, once piece with head rest, and belt pass-through holes, had to reproduce the basket weave fabric pattern too ...the second is more fitted, straight lines, folding design sport seat, very cool IMO
  11. Thanks guys, the Pro-touring GMC seats came out looking great IMO, looking forward to seeing in Jorge's GSX build
  12. No problem, Thanks Ben Good trade also with JC, thanks!
  13. How did I miss this? Looks fantastic Ryan, awesome detail work, bravo!!
  14. Garish IMO, not to my taste
  15. +1 for the colour, looks great!!
  16. Super clean build, love the period colours Nicely done, bravo!!
  17. Excellent build, looks great from that basic kit, nice work, bravo!!
  18. Super clean build, looks fantastic!!
  19. Beautiful build, nice work!!
  20. Thanks guys! making now a Pro-Touring version of a GMC Muscle car OEM seat ...maybe a Ford & Mopar version after?
  21. There is recently IIRC a Japan small production resin kit in 1/24 scale of the modern Elise, I'd have to search to find the name of who's making it, but I do recall seeing the kit completed and cast copies
  22. Great workmanship, the weathering & detailing is fantastic, nicely done!!
  23. Cool build & subject, looks awesome!!
  24. Cool build, looking great!!
  25. Continues to look great Kenny! you should get someone to mold/cast a few copies, would make a neat trans-kit
