  1. I usually spend 2-3 hours a day every day, it’s great to be retired.
  2. Looks like a 1:1. Excellent work.
  3. I’ve had several bodies painted up so starting to roll some builds out now. I realize there not as detailed or up to par as most the builds here but they suit me fine. This one is painted with Tamiya rattle can TS-58 Light Pearl Blue with the TS-13 clear coat. The camper and wheels and tires are about the only highlight of this kit. No mirrors were included so I used the only parts box mirrors I had and wish I had just left them off, but you gotta have mirrors with a camper right!
  4. It surely looks the part, great job.
  5. Very nice build! I’ve always liked Ryan Newman.
  6. Looks extremely nice Jason.
  7. That’s one slick Trans Am, paint looks flawless.
  8. Incredible work there!
  9. Great work on your 55’s Mike.
  10. The kit goes together quite well with no issues that I recall. Instructions called for gluing firewall to interior assembly which I missed and glued to the body but that turned out to be no concern.
  11. Looks great, turned out much, much better than mine.
  12. Just finished this one up, paint is Tamiya TS-21 Gold with just a light clear overcoat. Not a bad kit, just wish I had some pad printed tires to replace the kit ones.
  13. Hi George. I always crumble up small bits of paper towels and insert (gently) them into any openings in the cockpit till it is completely filled. If I’m unsure of any problem areas I then will add small strips of Tamiya tape, just in case. I have yet to get any overspray into a cockpit. I also do the same for open wheel wells and open bomb bays.
  14. Very sharp!
  15. Turned out great! Love these MPC modifieds.
  16. Very well built and I really like the colors.
  17. Spectacular looking Cougar!
  18. Thank you sir!

    Everything looks great, wheels, interior, paint, etc. Very classy ride.
  20. This is the Aoshima Nissan Laurel HC33 Medalist Club-L, another kit gifted to me from one of my sons. I have one more to go, a Nissan Alphard van. Paint is a touch up can of GM White Diamond and the Gold is a Tamiya TS-21. I wish it was more of the champagne gold but using what I have on hand anymore. These Aoshima kits are quite nice.
  21. Thanks! Sounds like a great road trip one of these days.
