  1. Guilherme Holtz is the master of light and dark. What is surprising is his models are all 1/16th scale and his buildings must be huge. https://www.flickr.com/photos/95316196@N04/
  2. Very interesting project. What Audi kit are you using?
  3. Looking good David. Have you considered posting to: https://www.flickr.com/groups/dioramamodels/pool/
  4. Overall a good looking Camaro model. What surprises me are the inaccurate rally wheels. How does that happen?
  5. I was surprised to see some Maisto diecast today at Rite Aid in amongst the toys. I had seen Maistos at Walgreens before but never Rite Aid. These are a little out my lane but could not resist the Nissan 370Z and Shelby Series 1 at $9.99 each.
  6. Now that is impressive. What era is the Bantam?
  7. I found these in the parts box and they look similar to Bill's picture above but they are small, definitely 1/25 as is the ruler. I do not know what kit they were in nor do I have the manifold.
  8. You Sir are a brave man! Sunshine/Superior have done some strange things with their diecasts but you have done a credible job with this one. The rally wheels look oversized or is it just me?
  9. Impressive build. I especially like the lights.
  10. Very nicely done Ken and thank you for posting the additional pictures.
  11. I keep the box lids and flatten them out and put them in a box dedicated to lids. This way I keep the box art without taking up a lot of space. I keep and sort my small parts into these as soon as I finish a kit and have left over pieces. Egg cartons are a great way to keep hubcaps organized. Larger parts and pieces I put into these boxes. Decals go into sleeve protectors in binders.
  12. I agree with you Tim on the points you made. I was very excited when it first came out but never paid full price for mine and now they are cheap on the Bay.
  13. I think it looks super for a small investment in time and money. I have not seen one before and might have to look it up under the Motor Max name.
  14. Looking really good. Please keep us posted with your progress.
  15. I just found your Bonneville Club de Mer. Great build as are all your models. Best build of the AMT/ESCI Ferrari SWB I have seen. Congratulations.
  16. Your first link opened the album for me and I am glad it did. Some super Cobras and the GT350R builds there. I really like the Dan Gurney for President decal.
  17. JC, yes it is the Revell kit that was re-released several years ago.
  18. Well done on the acquisition and repairs. I have this TR also and have debated whether to replace the wheels with Hasegawa PE wheels and add some racing decals.
  19. Sweet collection all, I am turning green.
  20. Nice pair!
  21. Looing good JC.
  22. Several years ago I built this Club de Mer as an entry in a fantasy competition. The story line was Pontiac engineers got wind of the Corvette SS and wanted their own racer to compete. Sadly the AMA ban put an end to it ever seeing the race track. A Pontiac engineer diverted it on its way to the crusher and secretly keep it in his carriage house.
