I'm sure this will most likely change, but as of now, it seems this could be my first "car-less" year since 1992!!!! But this will always be my online home :wink: Revell chopper bike Jet airliner Prop airliner 3 helicopters a 1/35 armor model Then again, this can change anytime and many times

'57 Buick and '56 AC Roadster?

Here are some of mine: Ferrari 612ig custom Scag Ferrari 308 GTB Ferrari 360 Modena You can see more pics and info here: http://puertoriconet.com/models/cars.htm Thanks,

Hello again! Back at the workbench after the holidays. It will be a very busy month at work but I was able to do some work on the chopper. The back fender was hacked by the tail light and the part was relocated to the front. After a lot of filling and sanding here is where I am now. A lot more to go, but you get the idea. Thanks,

WOW! ehhh WOW!

This may help: The ends go in the "air" as they are supposed to be attached to a small vertical rod. I added this rod to several models but it is not really worth it, as it can not be seen anyways. Hope this helps. Thanks,

I use them for military models. For airbrushing, I thin with a mixture of half water half rubbing alcohol.

Is #118 out? I subscribed a few months ago so I hope that one to be my first mailed issue.

Hello, If you really want to make your chopper a one of a kind, you can customize the custom parts . I wanted a fat tank so I took the one in the kit, cut it in the middle but not completely, so it will be like an inverted pie section. Styrene trip to hold putty, putty and you are almost there. For the bottom, just use strips of styrene to recreate the channel. There you go, more fuel for the chopper!!! Thanks,

Gas Tank: Take 2 After finishing my own tank, I was not really in love with it. I made a second one so I could choose. I like the second one better. I'm having fun with this. Too bad I'm leaving now for a week. 'Till next year! Thanks,

Very nice! I wish I could do decals half as good... Is the car black or very dark blue?

Very cool! I like the wheels a lot!

Confundido tal vez, pero mareado no

More progress on the tank: After all this effort, it looks way to close to the other one included in the kit :roll: I don't exactly love it. I guess I'll try to do another one and decide later.... Thanks,

Efrain, It looks good. I like the grilles. The engine and interiors look very cleanly built. Are the headlight covers blacked out? If so, I would suggest to paint the edge of the headlight opening in the body black as well. The rest looks great. Contact me by PM. I want to talk to you. Chequea tus mensajes priv. Gracias,

Very cool indeed!

First a disclaimer: This is Jairus fault. Second: I am a total ignorant when it comes to motorcycles. I haven't even ridden one (unless you consider a 50cc moped a bike). So I have no clue as to where this is going. All I know is that I'll use the frame, engine and wheels, with everything else a toss up. Frame went together nicely. Yes the kit has 2 tanks. But I want my own tank. Extra points if you guess what this started out as... I want my bike to have a tail light. This means the fender can not go in the original location. I have many ideas for this. Too bad I'll be out of town next 2 weeks or so. It is nice to build something YOUR way. Even if it makes no sense Thanks,

I totally agree. I guess my point is that the subject is not that important (at least to me) to justify all the extra work. Having this been a grail of sorts, I'd be busy fixing it :wink: Now, where's that Revell chopper bike?

HA! I feel the same way when I see something from Mark Jones, or Bill Geary or many other greats... Thanks for the compliments :wink: Thanks,

If the sink marks were consistent, it would have made an interesting set of wheels The chrome is not very good but I usually strip it anyways. Fixable? yes. Worth spending the time and effort in fixing them? I guess not Thanks,

One word: UNUSABLE!!!

Hello, I'm in a "confusion" state in the hobby. I took a break from cars for a while, and all of a sudden, I have 2 helicopters, 1 armored self propelled howitzer, 2 airliners, a revell chopper bike and now the concept Camaro all on the workbench at the same time... For the first time in years I'm not focused on one main project. I'm just jumping from one to another. I started dealing with the sink marks on the Camaro. Still have no idea where to go with it. Nine sink marks and those panel lines were too big. Thanks,

OK, so I've joined the club. I hope to have it finished by the Feb. deadline. My idea is to keep the frame, wheels and engine, everything else is a toss up. I'm a total motorcycle ignorant, so I have no idea what the heck I'm doing I hold Jairus responsible for this. This is totally his fault. Thanks,

Question on behalf of a friend: Has anyone sprayed Duplicolor clear over Plastikote paint? Both spray cans. I guess it would be ok since the plastikote is acrylic lacquer and it's pretty tough, but I'm not sure. I suggested to try it on a scrap piece first, but I'd like to know if anyone here has done it. Thanks,

Very nice '55! Nice blend of C6 touches to it.
