  1. The quality and creativeness of your builds never cease to amaze me. Great work.
  2. A few close up shots of a Roman Red and white 1977 Grand Prix I took at Carlisle in 2018.
  3. Great looking build.
  4. Excellent work and I like the factory fresh looking appearance.
  5. A couple of close up images of a Burgandy and white 1973 Buick Riviera. They were taken at a Carlisle show many years ago.

  6. Wow, that's awesome looking.
  7. Thanks Pierre. There were always various shades of blue available each year in those days. And I do have an affinity for them.
  8. The car has something of an elegant look with the pearl white. Someday I'll have to try a two tone interior like many of your builds. Great work as always.
  9. I agree those are an awesome collection of spectacular looking Chevelles. I know they're not everybody's cup of tea but as a Colonnade fan I really like the '76 Landau Coupe.
  10. I have to admire the effort to customize this model. Great work. I've used this color on a previous build and it's neat to see how it appears with a matte finish. BTW...that '67 Chevelle looks awesome! Is that the AMT or Revell kit?
  11. Excellent conversion.
  12. Thanks Carl, Jim and Hector. I think the Bahama Blue works well on a number of the GM musclecars from this era.
  13. Awesome looking build and great job closing in the t-tops. I really like the seat belts and their guide loops. The wet sanding produced a wonderful shine in the clear.
  14. Great looking build and the Inca Gold is a great looking color. Nice detailing on the front grill.
  15. Thanks John. I have several of these MonogramRevell reissue kits and one '70 AMT. Up to this point I haven't been sure what to do with the AMT. Now that I see the very nice mild custom work you've done with yours I very well may do something similar. Thanks Craig. I'm thinking of using this color on the '68 AMT Camaro I just received this week.
  16. Indeed a great looking model and I really like the creative build.
  17. That is really slick looking. Great work. Someday I'll add this kit to my collection.
  18. Thank you Larry, Roger, and Dennis. I'm currently working on another one these kits from the Monogram era.
  19. Coming along very nicely. I've built a few of these (with about another four to build) and I'll have to do one in either the same or a similar green like yours. And they assemble quite well.
  20. Thanks Wayne, I normally just deepen the panel lines with an old number 11 hobby blade. Works especially well with the Tamiya paints which seen to go on more thinly. Thank you Bill, Steve, Bob, James and Mario. Yeah, nothing against a red Chevelle, but I do like these cars in blues and golds. And I'm quite a Monogram kit fan myself with multiple Chevelles, Mustangs and GTO's in my stash.
  21. Looks great and not the easiest model to foil. The new headlight lenses are a nice touch.
  22. Beautiful looking build and very sharp color combination. I always like the rear window louvers on the '69 and '70 models.

    MGB Roadster

    Incredibly realistic looking build and interesting tutorial on the seat piping. I'm still digesting your tutorial on making gauge bezels.
  24. Great looking build of a beautiful subject. And the paint is just so unique. Interesting tip on foiling the tail light section and one I'll remember as I get set to start on this kit later this spring. I have to ask. What was used on the backup lights as they look very good and I never quite know what to do with them.
  25. Thank you Eric, Chris, Larry, Tom, Lee, and Jeremy. It's one of my favorite kits along with the Monogram '70 Mustang. Thank you David, Mike, Anton, and Trevor. I'm mostly satisfied but looking at the pictures I notice the passenger side marker light needed to be better. Mike,,,,I installed the lenses prior to removing the headlight buckets from the sprues. Just made it easier to line them up correctly. I do recall trimming the openings in the body slightly so the buckets would sit flush. The grill/bumper section installed well enough but I did have to keep the drivers side from drooping down until the glue set. So in hindsight I should've said few fitment issues. Hope that helps.
