  1. Great inspiration and execution so far. But that's not a gasser!
  2. Thx Prog, I too hate being bipolar, it's awsome!
  3. Thanks guys. When I get a moment I'll post the product I used for the rust.
  4. I do if you need it!
  5. Now that is absolutely gorgeous!!
  6. Another one I started earlier this year, AMT re-issue done up right for the non-Gasser/Gasser crowd. Big Ford power, Alclad Chrome and some real rust for good measure...
  7. Thanks Andy, a 3/4rear shot would be cool and maybe an interior one. But like you said, it's not a replica build. I like to be surprised at the final product too! The focus comes from many hours of training, sacrifice and extreme cost. Not to mention it's winter here and not much else to do! 1-2 emojis are ok but I do have my limits.
  8. Great looking model here. I like your clean building style and attention to detail. I do agree about the wiring also, in scale those would probably be the size of garden hose. You don't necessarily need exact size but smaller is better. I have had good results with computer wire and I have stripped wire and used the individual pieces. Three or four twisted together and painted black make a convincing wire harness. Your doing a great job here...
  9. One last test fit and then disassembly. Please disregard the interior color, THAT is not happening! Got most everything cleaned up and ready for primer, just need to fit the shocks now...
  10. ADHD strikes again, but in a good way! Now focus...
  11. Thank you everyone!
  12. So clean...
  13. Awsome painting!
  14. The struggle is real
  15. Focus! Stay focused,now keep it going...
  16. Too Cool...
  17. Thanks Vince, but as always there is much room for improvement.
  18. Thank you for the positive reviews. I really appreciate what you guys do and say.
  19. Outstanding ! I love this stuff and your building style is a bonus.
  20. I started this in March as a "I wonder if" build. Then I discovered that the Ohio Challenge this year is the 29 Ford from Revell. I have not been to that show since the first one mainly because it falls on Bike Week in Daytona. But I decided to finish this for that reason and finish it because I spent far to much time and effort trying to get it right. Yesterday I just slapped it together and put it on the shelf. I did try things out of the comfort zone and learned alot doing so, including how not to build a perfect model. But I did do some fine airbrushing and I also tried 1/25 Pinstriping which for the first time didn't turn out too bad... You can see the build pics here... http://s176.photobucket.com/user/fredjames_2007/library/29 Bubbletop?sort=2&page=1
  21. Complete and under glass...
  22. Outstanding period correct Custom.
  23. Fantastic Long roof, and custom to boot! Smooth, clean and shiny just the way they should be.
  24. Thanks Mike!
