  1. Excellent build on a great kit.
  2. Excellent build Mario and I never realized how nice Pearl Light Red looked on a modern car since I've only used that color on classics. And I find lamentable that two door coupes have become virtually extinct from manufacturers lineups.
  3. Excellent looking build and I never realized how nicely Pearl Light Blue and red harmonized. That's something I'll remember for future builds. You live in a very scenic area.
  4. Another masterpiece. Every detail from the carpet to the foil work looks perfect. Equally as impressive are the improvements you've made to the kit.
  5. Absolutely fantastic build. The taillights are particularly noteworthy. And the first time I can remember seeing a scale version of this era Camaro detailed with the Custom Interior.
  6. Great looking build David. I have the original release from the '70's molded in red unbuilt. I often wonder how I'll do with the operable doors.
  7. Gorgeous build and color combination. These cars are well suited with vinyl tops. Great work on the beltline trim.
  8. Nice work on both models. As a fan of the Colonnades I've always had a particular liking for the very handsome '76-'77 Cutlass Supreme coupes. Nice to finally see one as a scale model.
  9. Looks amazing! Excellent detailing on the interior and nice work blackwashing the grill which I've found to be tricky on this kit.

    That's a beauty and very nicely detailed.
  11. That is a great looking color on a great looking build.
  12. Thank you Kent, there's a couple of small spots where I burned through the clear but I've gotten somewhat better since I built this on awhile ago.
  13. Great job replicating his ride. Paint has a nice shine and the detail work looks excellent.
  14. Great looking build in a classic color combination. I just picked this kit up about a month ago and didn't realize the amount of engine compartment detailing.
  15. Thanks Rastislav Thanks Andreas. I plan to keep working on that fit in the future. Thanks Mike, I've come to like the early morning sunrise and sunset pictures the best.
  16. That's as perfect a build as it gets. Everything is done to the highest possible level.
  17. Thanks Eyman, Phillippe, and D.W. Besides the rear taillights/bumper assembly it really does assemble nicely.
  18. Sorry you lost a friend Carl. We've all lost a very talented model builder. I feel quite fortunate to have learned from his experiences.
  19. A very nice and neat build in a color that looks beautiful in the sun.
  20. That turned out great. I'm as much a fan of the mid and late 70's cars as anyone. I don't think of them so much as malaise era since I like the styling.
  21. Thanks Gareth I'm sure you'll build a great looking example. And if you like applying decals this kit has plenty of them...lol. Thank you Bill and Andrew. Thanks Guido I've found it's all about patience when building. My one disappointment is the slight bulge in the hood on the drivers side which didn't appear until after I assembled the body to chassis. Thanks Hector.
  22. Thank you Larry I enjoyed building this one. Thanks Jeremy.
  23. Thanks David and I did debate using the bodyside stripes but as you've mentioned I ultimately decided to go with the cleaner look. I won't necessarily rule them out on future builds. Thank you David, I always feel the white or off white interiors really pop especially in the sun. And since you and David (espo) asked I've included an engine shot along with a couple of indoor pictures of the car in the meanwhile. While I take care to produce neatly built engine compartments I don't always show them since I don't build them up beyond what the kit provides. While I do have 30AWG wrapping wire for plug wires I really haven't advanced to the point of adding that and other underhood detailing. As a result I feel my engine compartments pale in comparison to some of the highly detailed examples I see here. I did make an attempt at a fuel line on this one.
  24. Thanks for your comments Eric, Harry, Dan, and Eric. Thanks Michelle, Chris, Tim, and Tom. Thanks Bob, I picked up a couple of these upon their initial release and was waiting for my skills to improve before building the kit. Thank you Jim, Joe, Terry and Mathias. Thanks Ryan, I've grown quite fond of this color and plan to use it again. It does seem the taillight section is simply too wide for the body. Thanks Jim and Dan. The chrome work is very vital to the overall appearance.
  25. Some pictures at sunset.....
