  1. Great looking lambo.
  2. Outstanding work.
  3. Me too, I ordered on Jun 2nd also.. I knew it would take a while so I'm glad I don't need it anytime soon...
  4. Great looking Mopar
  5. Great looking Olds..
  6. Your right, I thought when I got back into it that it would be like I never left.. Man was I wrong.. The materials help too. I was just using basic supplies from the craft store. I did realize there were so many different supplies out there. When I was a kid, I barely had the money for the kit... lol
  7. It is just a bit bigger than the AMT version. I was going to use the hood from the AMT but it was just a little too small.
  8. I don't even want to post these, but this is the original I built when I first got back into the hobby.
  9. Welcome to the forum.. Those are some great builds..
  10. I'm using my wife's Samsung NX1000 She is into photography so I reap the benefits.. The only other thing I did was tape together some white poster board to make a box you can set your models in.
  11. I got some work done on the engine this weekend. It is all wired up and drilled out for coolant and heater hoses. I am going for a used looked so I airbrushed it with a little Tamiya Smoke. I got a little too much smoke on it, but just like they say " Once you go black, or maybe thats for something else" I have 400 Watts of light over my paint booth so it looked a lot lighter when I was spraying.
  12. Great job
  13. I really want to start out by thanking everyone on the forum. I got back into modeling about 1 1/2 years ago after taking a 30 year break.. This forum have been such a great help that I can't imagine what my models would have turned out like. When I first started back my first model was the 1970 Jack Reacher Chevelle and it did not turn out well at all. When I dig it out I will post pictures even though it looks like BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH. My next build I though it would be fun to build another 1970 Chevelle just to see the difference in my abilities. I was going to do another Jack Reacher kit, but I realized it wasn't the most detailed kit out there. I decided to give the Revell Baldwin Motion Chevelle a try. I realized that the hood was different than the AMT kit and I wanted it to be the same as the original Chevelle I built. After realizing that I could not find any replacement hoods online, I thought I would try cutting the hood out of a Revell snap kit that I had. With a little patience, I was able to scribe out the hood from the snap kit. After sanding a little bit the hood doesn't fit too bad. With a little more work it should give a good fit. Today I got the engine together and a few parts chromed.. I'll post the progress as I get the time..

  20. Thanks everyone. Sometimes I get shy about posting pictures because I see so many great builds on here that I think its hard to compare..
