  1. Thanks for the comment Phil...... the vehicles I that need for the ongoing diorama project, and also the period of European kits are not the usual scale models that you see as often , you are right. David
  2. All very nice builds Will....... my favourite would be the first photo, the Rothmans race car. David
  3. Thanks Gary...... glad you like them! David
  4. Thanks very much Peter...... the London bus does not count because I completed that build before the end of 2017, so it was more to show the smallest kit that I have built in 1:24 scale and the largest kit. There were 8 pieces for the Tamiya Vespa and just under 400 pieces for the Revell bus. The Talbots are French of course, the Mitsubishi is Japanese and the Henry Ford figures are American, so not all British ! ( but I know what you mean ). David
  5. Nicely done builds Bill..... my favourite is the '65 Chevy Impala, with the white paint work and blue interior..... such a realistic engine in that one. David
  6. Thanks very much Bob..... Hope your 2018 year was good too! David
  7. Many thanks Bruce..... the Heller kit of the Talbot Lago T26 Record Cabriolet was actually quite nice to build, and I now have the Heller Citroen 15.Six Traction Avant kit to build, as well as the Heller Delahaye 135 kit arriving in a day or two. David
  8. Thanks for the additional photos in natural light Steven and this colour suits the car...... I used to own a 1:1 Pontiac Parisienne 1968 - 4-door 5.3 litre V8 that was not Plum Mist, but was a pale yellow body colour with a light brown vinyl roof. The car was really nice to drive and it was the Canadian right-hand drive version. License plate was FCK 33 which could be interpreted as offensive here in England !!! - The four headlamps were arranged horizontally, rather than vertically as on your scale model. Otherwise the body design of the Parisienne is very similar to the Bonneville for that year. I have tried to find a 1:24 or 1:25 scale kit that I could possibly convert to a four door 1968 Parisienne, but none seem to be available. David
  9. Thanks for that Steven, and I totally understand about the Plum Mist looking black in photos and the wrong light. Your first couple of photos did look black, and then a following photo the body colour appeared more of a brown metallic, so I guessed it was not black really. The Rolls-Royce colour Velvet Green, and also Midnight Blue, both look black in normal lighting conditions but then in bright sunlight you can see the slight indication of green or blue which is a joy to discover. David
  10. Three excellent versions of an unusual motor car. You have done a fine job with these Peter and clearly a lot of work has gone into the gull-wing doors, also the convertible and the paint finish on all three cars..... all builds to be proud of! David
  11. Ah yes... Hudson, that's it...... I like the Hudson and 1952 fits right into my period of choice, the '50's cars. Thanks David
  12. Really nice build that Pontiac Bonneville Steve.......and the paint colour is intriguing....... ? David
  13. All your builds are nicely photographed Matt, and one car in particular caught my eye, which was the cream Triumph sports car with the figures. David
  14. There is something about each one of your builds Clifford that appeals to me, but if I have to mention one or two in particular...... the '33 Ford Sedan Delivery is very nicely done, and the '55 Ford Custom has that gorgeous purple paint with white combination going on that is so pleasing to the eye. The Honda garden tiller and figure has me smiling too! David
  15. Your Porsche engine build is beautiful Michael..... and the choice of paint colours is very interesting. Air-cooled flat six ( not short of any cylinders in my view ). You have clearly put a lot of work into this and also utilised multiple material technologies. David
  16. I like the yellow Daytona winner Ismael, and the weathering is perfectly accurate. David
  17. They are all nicely done Paul, and it's the purple and pink combination that does it for me...... remind me, what is that car again please? David
  18. All clean and tidy builds Jared, and my favourite of yours is the '69 Camaro Z28, which in 1:12 scale looks fabulous! David
  19. Thanks Ismael for your kind comments David
  20. Exceptionally good collection of builds Janne...... you have had a very good year, and may it continue for 2019..... well done for the medal ! David
  21. Many thanks to Bill, Donald, Matthew, Dann, Pat and Carl....... let's hope 2019 is also a good year ! David
  22. Merry Christmas Dan, and to everyone on Model Cars Magazine forums, all over the world ! David
