MCM Regular

MCM Regular (3/6)

  1. Thank you. got some stuff for the interior, items from iceman collections (milk crate, water bottle, coffee cup,) phoenix diorama accessories (coolers and gas can,) scale doll house items off eBay (bag of chips) and Doozy resin (soda can)
  2. White letter BFGs and dog dish steelies
  3. interior is together. Trying to think of random junk I can put in the cargo area.
  4. Thank you. got the chassis as well as the engine bay completed. Wired distributor also Added battery lines, brake lines and ac lines in the engine bay.
  5. And some chassis weathering using Tamiya weathering master packs and some beige paint. Gloss black to simulate some leaky pinion seals and diff cover gaskets.
  6. Thanks, this kit is pretty nice. I had an 83 K5 way back when in high school, and regretfully sold a nice square body suburban I owned a few years ago. updates on the 1/25 square body; got the chassis together but still have yet to weather it. Threw the stock steelies on some Baja Claws and I think the steelies with the dog dish hub caps would look tough on the Claws. Not sure if I want to run the Rally’s/BFGs or the Steelies/claws. Might have to give it a small body lift to clear the claws.
  7. Got some interior work done, using an array of different reds. Also got a new chrome pen by Zeyar from amazon, worked great on the dash trim, door panels and grille. and also got the glass in the body
  8. First build of 2025. Based on the Stanger Things K5. Painted Tamiya Italian red, the top is finished with Tamiya white primer. I had a strange reaction with the clear coat so I just scuffed and scratched it up and now it’s a beater/soon to be weathered version. Wheels and tires from Fireball. The chrome center caps that come in the kit actually fit the Fireball wheels nicely.
  9. Built this one box stock using Automotivetouchup.com aerosol Bright Teal Metallic; same as my 1:1. Have some other projects goin on but threw this together real quick.
  10. Recently completed my Raptor build and was going to start again on my stalled Foxbody Mustang, or Mark VII project, but instead a buddy of mine picked up the same GMC snow plow kit and built his up so I figured I’d follow suit and start on my snow plow kit. I ended up purchasing the 76 Chevy step side kit for parts (mainly the much better decals and carbureted intake and Chevrolet grille) I also picked up a set of Mirrors from the MPC kit. Wheels and tires by Fireball Modelworks as well as the door handles. Laid some color down; Duplicolor Cardinal Red and just did a mock up just to get some motivation. Not sure if I want to clear coat and polish or leave it with the flat faded look ??‍♂️ Also filed the grille down to open the slats.
  11. Thank you all for the kind words. I will try the given advice mentioned above for the third brake light, great idea!
  12. Calling this one done. First one done for this year lol. Couldnt come up with a good solution to make the third brake light look realistic so I just left it alone.
  13. Thank you all for the compliments and kind words. Got a little detail painting done. And mostly assembled, just a couple things left. My only complaint with this kit is the windshield doesn’t seem to want to fit right and the head lights for sure don’t fit flush with the fenders.
  14. Revell’s Snap Tite kit. Box stock. Testors “Star Spangled Blue” as a base, topped with Tamiya TS19 Metallic Blue. Used Dupli Color bumper paint for flares and bumpers. Hand polished with XPC3 1000.
  15. Thank you, that was the look I was going for. got the engine assembled and detailed. Detailed similarly to the engine for my Mark build but decided to leave this one non A/C. Only thing left is add some small decals.
