  1. cool answer. Holy mother! You're missing half of the front fender . Hope you don't get into trouble because ot the missing headlight too This one looks surely good near by your trailer salesman's truck. Crazy stuff but good.
  2. This is so classic - L'il red truck. Thank you for sharing!
  3. Looks like a piece of ... Great! I read your sentence twice how you painted the body. It sounds like to try this by myself. Sounds cool. Looks good! I agree with the inline 6. Fits better than a V8 in my point of view. Good decision.
  4. Man, I built some of this model kit because I like this "little" F100 most. I wish, I'd had one. The first thing I noticed is that your Ford sits good on it's wheels. I often had issues with the all-wheel-touch on the ground. Sometimes it was good as long the chassis wasn't put under the body. Then one wheel lost ground You did a good job on that! The mirrors are the right choice for it. It is a truck . What you've done with the bed is awesome! This looks very fantastic. There are two things I'd like to mention: the paint doesn't look as smooth as a new car. But I like it as is. It fits perfect to the F100. For me, a shiny F100 is only a tuned one or show car. The second thing is just a tiny detail. For a closer look on the rims you can see the white plastic by cutting out of the tree. It's easy to paint it by with a brush ...like some scratches on the rear of the cabin Not dramatically. Just a hint.
  5. It look very good. Like the rust and used look. The only thing I don't like is the matt windshield. It would be better to have the whipers doing there scratches e.g. on the windshield. Here it looks like the truck went into a sand storm
  6. Great built! I'm wondering that Revell put decals for the camo in the kit. Let me say, it's a "funny" thing. But for me as a non-WWII-plane-builder it's a good idea. To less experience in brushing camo.
  7. Super finish! The paint looks awesome. I think this is the best color for this RX7. Together with the tinted windows and the nice rims looks it just right.
  8. wow This car looks fantastic!
  9. This black finish looks awesome! Not more to say
  10. Pretty good idea and well done! I think, you did a lot of more on the MX5 Wider body, big rims and tires. Good to know too, that there is a driver figure in the kit!
  11. This is what I'd liked to aks: do you have the slant 6 in it. You answered the question with the additional pictures. Good. It looks good all over. The color is good for the car. I printed mine a little darker blue with the slant 6 I like this model kit. When I remember building mine, there were no issues or problems with it. A good one! Like it
  12. The colors looking pretty nice together! Nice one.
  13. Some month ago I was the lucky winner on ebay for the kit - again. but 20+ years later So I'll maybe give it a try soon. Your decision to glue the doors etc. in place is a good one. When I built mine, I was really to Young. Nowadays I'd check the fitting first and try to get it work and look properly. But when I see your 512 ... Maybe I'll glue it too. It's a nice car anyway. When I compare the pictures I don't see any different between the wheels. Ok, my picture isn't that good to see some details
  14. A nice mixture of new and used cars. Love each model of you. You know my favorite is still the S2000. But with a tiny advance And thank you for the Beetle - the reason, I started the Polizei-Beetle last week. Btw: missing the MPC-thing
  15. Great work and very good pictures of the "how to". Like it!
  16. Congratulation to all finisher and to the winner! Well done.
  17. This is another proof, that a Ferrari doesn't have to be red! This color looks beautiful on the GTO! Some fat thumbs up!
  18. This is cool!
  19. This looks very good. Nice, to see a 512 generally! I often think about earlier days, when I had the Marui kit. The doors doesn't fit as bad as the head lights. Today I'm unhappy, that I sold the model car. Nowadays I would know how to handle such issues. Are your doors / hood / pop up lights working or did you glued them to the body? If you don't mind: this are the only two pictures I still have of mine: Don't know, what was on my mind to paint the interior white Built it around 20 years ago, sold it 5 years ago. All stock. Maybe you could compare the wheels with yours.
  20. Crazy idea!
  21. The model kit if self is a good one. But your dilapidated exemplar is great!
  22. I love the 40s Ford This looks very nice. I like the body color and the interior most. That doesn't mean, that the rest isn't good too
  23. This Studebaker looks nice. Love it Have the Studebaker also in my shelf. Painted it a copper metallic after two other paint jobs caused me a little trouble Like to see the place in the display case. Another interesting cars are around. I'm peeking to the rack under the Studebaker's. Those 3 cars (red Impala with the wings, 40s Plymouth, the white 58 Impala (?) with the customized back) looking pretty interesting too
  24. The underside looks pretty good! Very well done. The engine bay is just awesome! Awesome! All the details are great. Totally my respect for it. Only two things from my point of view: the antenna on the back has a strange position. Sorry, I didn't read the wip thread, if you explained it there. Is the antenna fixed / clamped at the trunk lid? And the hood. It sadly looks like it doesn't close properly. But: with this great looking engine bay, it has to be put away or stand by the car - just be opened to give a look to the engine! This is definitely the master piece of this kit. Great work! Edit: I will go through the wip. Have to see the process of the engine bay. This is so awesome!
