  1. Built from the recent MPC kit that included the Godzilla diorama. Since the movie was set in the late 60s, I figured the Planetary Defense forces would have given their fleet an upgrade and replaced the Go-Devil I4 with what have been the newest L-series engine from Nissan. Other than the necessary changes to make said engine fit, the rest of the kit was built box stock. A full writeup of the build is available here, and as always any comments/criticisms are welcome! With the included diorama:
  2. Beautiful work, they don't come much cleaner than that!
  3. I'm glad this thread got bumped, I missed it before. Beautiful job on it!
  4. Thanks! You're welcome! This was my second time working with their products and so far I've been very happy - everything pretty much plugs together right out of the box.
  5. Great job on the weathering, especially the cracked dash! Also, those rear window rust spots...a mid-60s GM hallmark! πŸ˜†
  6. That's a great looking Merc, nice job!
  7. Beautiful job on this, and with the top off you can really appreicate the slick lines (not to mention the excellent interior!)
  8. Thanks all, it was a fun experiment trying out the lighting kit!
  9. Looks great! I always was partial to that color scheme...
  10. Mostly box stock build of an original release AMT/Ertl kit that's been in my stash for nearly 30 years: Paint is TS-86 and TS-14, with the interior done in several shades of gray to replicate that '90s aesthetic: He joins my classic MPC Knight Rider KITT, which is definitely showing its age: I did say "mostly box stock." My one change was the addition of a lighting kit from Evan Designs, rewired so that everything fits inside the body shell (I had purchased an older version meant to run off a 9V battery in a base - they now offer a 3V version that can do this straight out of the box). A full writeup of the project is available here, and as always any comments/criticisms are welcome!
