  1. Wow absolutely gorgeous!! I've always wonder on these quick builds, is that 7.5 hours straight out of the box or after the paint is done? The reason I ask is because I don't even touch one of my builds for at least 24 hours after it gets paint. And then there's the sanding and polishing, and possibly a clear coat. Do you use a dehydrator or does the Tamiya paint dry that much faster. Sorry for all the questions, just trying to learn what I can from all the great builders here. Anyway whether 7.5 hours or 7.5 months that is just Beautiful
  2. Absolutely Beautiful Tulio!! As always.Dang I wish my foil work look half as good!
  3. Yes it was sitting too high for stock, and this kit does have the janky adjustable suspension. I decided to glue it in place to make it a little more stable and I thought that I had where I wanted it until the glue dried and I sat back up on it's wheels that it was sitting high. So today I took it back apart(easy enough on this one) and lowered it down all the way and it sits a lot better. Here are a couple pics with the new and improved ride height.
  4. That is drop dead gorgeous!! Love the color!!
  5. Thanks Ricky. No it's not your eyes. It seems like the rear wheels should sit back a hair further in the wheel wells, and I probably could have spent a little more time and done something about that.
  6. Hello All. This is the Revell snap kit. This is the third Revell snap kit I've done lately. I really enjoy trying to build these up into nice looking curbsides. To that end I painted this one navy blue, used the MCG photo etch kit, added gauge decals to the instrument panel, and used lots of BMF. Man this thing has got a LOT of trim!!! Anyway here are the pics and comments are welcome and appreciated. Thanks for looking.

    '71 GTX

    Hello again. This is the Monogram '71 Plymouth GTX 1:24 kit. I started this several months ago and has kind of been to the back burner on and off several times. I finally spent about a weeks worth of nights after work and finished it up. It's a decent kit that goes together pretty well, save for the Air Grabber hood scope. That took a little bit of work to get it to sit straight.(its still not perfect but its close). The GTX emblem on the trunk lid only came in red and I almost left it off because it really doesn't go with the paint scheme, but I guess it looks alright and is starting to grow on me. Anyway on to the pics. As always thanks for looking and comments welcome.
  15. That thing looks likes its ready to kick some A**
  16. A real beauty for sure!!
  17. Looks Mighty Mean Jim! Great build!!
