Great save. Hard to believe its the same model. I could picture myself on the original stuffing it full of whatever fireworks I had handy and kablooie. ?
I would be extremely pleased with that build too. Nice smooth paint, beautiful work work all around. I really like that first pic with the sun shining through the haze. Looks like the sky over Denver this morning.
Very nice. I actually saw a dune buggy flying down the road yesterday. I have a couple of these in the pile that I'll get around to one of these days, or years.....
That came out great. I have always found dark colors easier to paint whether on a model or 1:1. With darker colors it's easier to see the shine come up than with lighter colors.
