  1. Welcome to the forum Tony, lots of goodies in here.
  2. That's a beautifully preserved model. Awesome paint job . Well done
  3. That's a pretty good looking Vette there Mike. I always liked the 63 split window being the only year they had it makes them sought after. Great color and finish. Nice job !
  4. That's a sharp looking camaro, the finish looks really good. Boy, I would not want to change the spark plugs on that thing ! ?
  5. thanks Bob, you assumed right. At first I thought of a little office the I switch to the more mundane. Notice the piping on the wall. Thanks Rick, I like to photograph my models in some context.
  6. Welcome to the forum Curt
  7. Awesome looking REO. Looks great without the sleeper. Great color choice. Looks right at home in your garage.
  8. Another great and unique build. The eagle is my all time favorite coe. I love what you did with it.
  9. First, I have a very limited knowledge of Narscar. I Bought this kit with the idea of converting it to a factory stock car but I soon found out it would be nearly impossible to source all the parts I would need. So I built it the way it was intended, It turned out ok I guess. I rely on the box art and google image to try to be as acurate as I could, so apologies if I made mistakes. The 1979Torino is my favorite model year and I wish Revell would have produce the gran Torino as seen in the same name movie. Instead they issued the less attractive 1973 Red tomato which I guess was more popular. thanks again for looking.
  10. By no means a nascar expert, but I can appreciate those beautiful color schemes and decals. Great looking GTO.
  11. Nice and sharp Charger. Beautiful decal work.
  12. Beautiful build, I like the chassis details and the appropriate background. Félicitations !
  13. Beautiful RR. I too, like MPC kits, what they lack in details, they made up by subject mater, back then they had a nice variety and their bodies were very well rendered. Orange and white stripes suit it well. What's not to like ?. Nice job.
  14. Nice , clean and stock. Great job on a beautiful model.
  15. Turned out pretty good.
  16. That's a cool chevy, and the colors are nice.
  17. Beautiful Jag. nice and clean
  18. Sharp looking gasser, well done
  19. That's a real beauty Steven. Natural light is always better to photograph car models, it puts them in their real environment, and your model is so beautiful not just the color but the build and details are awesome. Like their real counterparts these models are almost gone, Please keep posting these.
  20. Thanks Bob Thank you Harry.I don't remember have trouble with the bumpers, maybe because right now I am struggling finishing the 1/24 ICM admiral saloon. Beautiful kit but the body parts are a nightmare to get them to fit.The AMG gt seems like it builds itself in comparison. Thanks Emre, it must have been a blast, I'm jealous. Thanks Chris Merci Pat Thanks Rich, As the weather is warming up here, soon I'll be able to take some outside pictures. Nothing like natural light to make a model pop. Thanks Jim, I find that Tamiya spray lacquer paints are really forgiving, they give a nice smooth finish. I usually go with 2 mist coats and 2 or 3 wet coats. Thanks David, I tried to reproduce the beautiful box art of the RoG version.
  21. A straightforward kit, nothing added, nothing removed. Builds up really well. Paint is Tamiya spray chrome yellow. It's good to have a nice fitting kit from time to time. The difference of shade in the photos is due to me playing with the camera settings. Personally , I prefer the darker ones. thanks for looking.
  22. A beautiful pair for sure, like them both.I am glad I grew up around these, Boy that was fun.
  23. That 's a beautiful rig Helmut, the weathering makes authentic.
  24. Nice job on the vette. It looks great in that color.
  25. Wow Greg, you nailed the box art perfectly. This is a beautiful kit and you did it justice.?
