  1. Thank you Dennis and Steve. Foil work has definitely taught me the importance of patience. Thanks Samuel, Bob and Alex. My photography continues to evolve.
  2. Stunning build and all of the detail work (trim, grill etc) are absolutely spot on. I really like the wheels and tires on this kit. Don't often see whitewalls on muscle or pony cars.
  3. Thank you Anders and David.
  4. A lot of wow factor with this build. Great work on a beautifully designed car. The halo style vinyl top is very well executed.
  5. That's a nice clean build. And merging parts from different kits and making all work is no small task.
  6. Thank you Justin and Mike. Thank you Mario and Eric.
  7. Thanks Michelle and D Petterway Thanks Doug. I also have an admiration for the '65 and '66 and fortunately there are good kits at reasonable prices for both years. Thanks Ken, Dan and Chris. Thanks Robert. I foiled the 396 emblems this time around rather than use the kit's 409 decals. Thanks Larry and Gustavo. Thanks Andy. I've thought about foiling the trim under clear in addition to the badges/scripts since they would be locked in as you mentioned. Sometimes the foil just doesn't stay burnished in place. Didn't realize you had a YouTube channel. I'll have to check it out. Thank you Jeff and Jim. Thanks Bob. I've recalled a number of these cars at shows in similar colors and it just always looked right. Thanks Carl. Thanks John. I've become quite fond of the color myself and have used it on a number of models that still need to be completed. Thanks Niko, I really like the tail lights on these. Thanks Jim and Dana Thanks Dennis and Michael. Thanks Richard and Andy Thanks David and I didn't realize the '66 cars had narrower white walls. While I greatly admire Chip Foose's work I definitely prefer these cars factory like. Thanks Jon
  8. Stunning as always Anders.
  9. As a fan of Colonnade coupes and one time owner of one of these it is a pleasure to see this build. I have a couple of the Lennie Pond kits and currently attempting the conversion like yours. I really don't think I'll be able to replicate the fender flares as you have successfully done here.
  10. As a fan of Colonnade coupes I like this!
  11. Excellent job with all of the detail work. Foil work around the windshield is perfect. Color is a nice shade of orange.
  12. Second build of the 1/25 scale Revell '65 Impala (Foose kit). Exterior color is Dupli-color Chrysler Dark Garnet Red Pearl a color similar to Madeira Maroon offered between '65-'67. Rust-Oleum for the clear. This time around I foiled the front hood and rear panel emblems prior to applying the supplied decals. It never occurred to me to first foil those emblems on my first build.
  13. Great color choice on that big Buick. Great work as always.
  14. Sharp looking Olds Bob. Always like all the extra details you add to your builds.
  15. Very cool.
  16. Outstanding work. Amazing interior detailing.
  17. Sharp looking build.
  18. Thanks Scott. I don't have the greatest paint skills but make up for it with a good deal of wet sanding.
  19. Very nice paint work.
  20. Looks great and the two tone paint treatment works well on this one. The styrene exhausts are so much more realistic than typical kit pipes.
  21. Thanks Bill, fortunately Dupli-Color offers a nice variety of red paints.
  22. Great looking Charger I always like the effort you put into the unique opening features you include on your models.
  23. Great work Mario and I like the new backdrop.
  24. Thank you Anders.
  25. Paint work looks great and that color definitely suits the car.
