  1. Somehow, I think the sepia tone works better. I gives a vintage look at your beautiful build. I like this.
  2. Looking great on those wheels. Color combo works great too. I have a soft spot for mopars of the 60's and early 70's.
  3. beautiful truck, nice, subtle faded paint effect. My kind of truck.
  4. really nice, good job on the decals
  5. Truly beautiful, those AMT kits are not for the faint of heart. Yours looks just great. I like your garage too
  6. Beautiful builds, the green really stands out. This is one of the best post 90's design of the impala. A worthy successor to the impala breed. You do it justice.
  7. I have that kit in my stash, You just push me to start it. Really nice job.
  8. Beautiful paint job. the shine and blending are perfect.
  9. Great finish, decal work is top notch. Great color too.
  10. A really good job. Beautiful build. So much plastic , so little time !
  11. Absolutely stunning, I really wish there were more four doors available but I understand that the market for it is so small that no plastic kit manufacturer wants to spend money on a very restricted market. I wish I have heard about modelhaus before I too would have stacked some of their offerings. I am glad you build this one and share it with us because it would be a shame to keep this little gem for your eyes only. And the color is perfect for this car
  12. Thanks Bob, Of all the models I build over the years, I must confess that I never build one hot rod. I'm not really into it but I sure do appreciate the work people do on them. I will eventually build a funny car, funny cars in 70's and 80's are what I'd be interested in . I just have so many projects. I also build a few rally cars but just as a change of pace from my main interests.
  13. beautiful car, beautiful build, beautiful color, and really good photography. Nicely done.
  14. Build from the lil red express kit , this was before the re-issued long box kit . The resin box comes from scale FX, the frame and drive train comes from the Ramcharger kit from monogram. Being 1/24 scale it gives the truck a beefier look . I gave it the rust treatment from all that off-roading. I wish round 2 would re-issued the 4x4 version. thanks for looking
  15. Bought 2 of these, this is the first build while I was experimenting with different clear coats. It turned out ok but after a couple of years it degraded, it lost some of it's shine , I used krylon clear and although it lays near perfect it took several coats. Now I stick with what works for me . Tamiya ts 13 or Mr hobby super clear. More expensive but the results are worth it.
  16. What a great looking Camaro. Pretty much how they looked like when I was going to school. Just the right faded look. Great build Dominik.
  17. Welcome Thomas. Like you I like the 50's and 60's era.
  18. Welcome in our playground Chris. Looking forward to see your builds
  19. Now this could be an ad for the real car. Excellent build. Top notch photography. A++ X2
  20. Beautiful taxi. I did the cop car version. I like the missing hubcap, nice detail.
  21. This is the polar lights kit. I don't know if it is a re-box of the Aoshima or a separate kit. The body is already done in a beautiful brushed stainless steel finish. Easy to assemble. A real nice piece of movie history.
  22. Good choice of color.
  23. Nice Start, I build several of these. Revell did a great job on these kits. This is going to be awesome in that color.
  24. A great way to honor a promising actor gone way too soon.
  25. Nice looking Sirocco. I like the wheels
