  1. I'm using the frame that has the fenders and running boards molded onto it. It would be identical to the other frame included in the kit if the fenders and running boards were to be removed. Doesn't seem like there's much there for either frame, but it also seems like a cheaper kit so that might explain it. I just hope it goes together without too many issues. I hope to get started on it sometime next week, if I do I will post updates in the "On the Workbench" section.
  2. Nice looking build. I like that color combo.
  3. Well done! And a nice color scheme.
  4. Very realistic weathering, great job.
  5. Very sharp AMX. Nice job. I agree, you don't see too many of these in either model world or real world.
  6. Looking great so far. Nice detailing of the interior. The engine/engine compartment detailing is top notch as well as the chassis being some of the better weathering I have seen. I envy you guys that have the dexterity and patience to do brake/fuel lines on these things. It's all I can do to put on plug wires, although I am going to try battery cables and heater hoses soon and that will most likely be the extent of the smaller details for me. Super job on molding the headlight/turn signal lenses too. I really like the color, bummer about the fender but nice save. Can't wait to see this one done.
  7. Beautiful work. She looks absolutely ravishing!
  8. Nice saves. They look classy like they should now.
  9. Very well done as usual. Wasn't sure if I was interested in this kit as I have the Revell 1968 Roadster 2 in 1, but your build just inspired me to put it on my kits to get list.
  10. Yeah, some of those old MPC kits really don't like to go together very well at all, but yours looks fantastic. This one looks like it was well worth the effort. I really like that yellow too
  11. That's a stunning color combo and a really nice paint job. Looks great.
  12. That's a heckuva idea that turned out quite well. Great color for it too. Very nicely done.
  13. That turned out real nice. Great choice on the color.
  14. Outstanding job on this one as usual.. Beautiful color and it suits the Audi well.
  15. Looks great, and I love the color. Looks like a nice kit.
  16. Nice save! The added details look great.
  17. Correct me if I'm wrong, which I'm sure a lot of you will, but comparing what happened in the past Revell to the future Revell is kind of a moot point since Revell of Germany will be responsible for any new tooling and it looks like Atlantis should be offering up some re-issues of older Revell/Monogram kits. We should all be excited about this new kit and any others that might come from this, as well as the possibility of some re-issue/re-tooling of older kits not in circulation for some time. For instance, and I'm speaking as a huge 60's and 70's Muscle Car fan, the 1971 Trans Am, '69 GTO, '70 Malibu SS454, '69 Super Bee, '70 GTX and Superbird, plus the Buick Grand National and '86 Monte Carlo SS just to name a few, if indeed the sale of molds included the old Monograms. The Atlantis situation is the one I will be watching closest regarding the older molds, but any more truly new kits from R of G will be seen as great news also.
  18. An outstanding build as usual!
  19. That green looks awesome! Really like the Baldwin 'Vette also.
  20. As much as everybody, myself included, hated to hear about Hobbico going down and taking Revell-Monogram with it, it seems like a lot of good news has come from this. It will be interesting to see what drivers/paint schemes might be introduced in these re-issues.
  21. That is one sweet build! Very well done!
  22. Very nicely done! She looks as real as the 1:1.
  23. Oh man! Don't I wish. This is just a small sample of what I built in the 80's to very early 90's. I probably built close to 100 kits back then, and this is all I kept when I moved out of the folks' house. Unfortunately about ten years later, after being married for a few years and moving a couple of times, I foolishly put these and a few others that I had started/finished in that time to the curb. . Sorry for the picture quality, these were taken long before the digital camera/smart phone era, lol.
