  1. Thanks, I'm glad you like it. I started with a glue bomb 57 T-Bird. The jet engines are from a War Hammer vehicle. Good luck, I look forward to seeing your build!
  2. ThunderCougarFalconBird from Futurama
  3. Great job on the dashboard. Love the detail.
  4. If I can just get a couple of days of decent weather, I should be able to finish up my current project. After that, this one is next. My entry for this years Cannon Ball Run, it is my first 3D Printed body (purchased). Ultimately it may end up being a little beyond my capabilities but I feel confident I can make it look good on the shelf.
  5. 55 Ford Truck I am currently working on. OOB except for the lower stance.
  6. Thanks! You're right, if memory serves, Bill referred to the build as a Monster Truck you could take the family for a ride in. ?
  7. I have heard it said imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I hope that is true for Nosferatu since I completely stole his awesome Jeep build idea. Never been much of a Jeep guy myself but my wife loves them. I picked up this kit sometime back to build for her at some point. I happened to be flipping through the forum one night and saw Nosferatu’s awesome build which I immediately shared with my wife. Not surprisingly her response was “I love that, build me one of those”…and so it goes. As always, thanks for looking.
  8. Looks great! Wish I had one, just can’t bring myself to pay what they cost ?‍♂️
  9. Really nice, I like everything about it ?
  10. Thanks everybody for the positive feedback, I’m glad you like it. It was a fun project!
  11. Oops meant to put this in the under glass section if a moderator wants to move it
  12. Sure you’ve got your SRT8’s & your Hellcats but what if I want to race on the weekends and still have something I can use to bring stuff home from the grocery store ?
  13. Nice, I hope you find what you are looking for, I am anxious to see what you can do with it. I am an average modeler at best and working with this 3D print it going to be a huge challenge. However, I wanted to join in and did not figure the modeling world needed another Charger, Camaro, or Mustang. I too am thinking about joining the P2P with either a Pinto or an early 70’s Mustang (something I already have on hand). The two things holding me back are my concern that I may be making modeling promises I cannot keep time wise and the requirement to have those fancy P2P plates on the front and back of the car. I don’t have the ability to make them and I have no idea where I could buy one in 1/25 scale so, we will see.
  14. I would like to throw my name in the hat with this 3D Printed Karmann Ghia I purchased a few months back. Per my Internet research this body either is or can at least pass for a 1969. If one of our more informed members says that’s not correct I will either gracefully bow out or find something else to build.
  15. Thanks, the paint is Krylon Gloss Rich Plum with a very light spray of Krylon Glitter Blast over the top.
  16. I think it looks great! Where did you get the wheels and tires? I know it says "they came from a DC" apologies though, I don't know what that means. Can I buy them aftermarket or are they included with a specific kit?
  17. This one is a tribute to my first car a 79 VW Scirocco, although mine was not near this cool looking. Though the car looks stock at first glance, it actually has a fair amount of work done. I deleted the rear bumper and filled in the holes, filled in the back opening for the stock exhaust, and trimmed and pulled-in the front bumper to give it a cleaner look. Lowering it and tucking the Pegasus wheels and tires under it turned out to be somewhat of a challenge because the undercarriage doesn't reach all the way from front to back. Hope you like it and as always, thanks for looking.
  18. Nice, always love the realism of the weathered old trucks
  19. Great looking little Brat
  20. Don't think I've ever seen one of these before. Looks cool
  21. Love that color combination. Interior looks great
  22. Wow! that's just beautiful
