happy grumpy

Great job on the olds. Nice color choice.

The perfect rat rod. The bare metal looks awesome. The burnt effect on the headers is a nice touch.

Wow Tom, this could be a brochure cover that GM would have published back in the 70's. Really well put together. Old kits can be just as beautiful when built carefully. Every time I see a jo han kit, I am reminded how well the bodies were rendered. I gig it.

Always nice to see a bug. This is a good kit, I built several as well as tamiya's 66. I like the pink idea. really good job on this build, like the movie; pretty in pink.?

Great work on the Bronco, I like the engine and the big wheels. The subtle weathering adds to realism.

Beautiful builds on a trip to memory lane. The golden age of racing. Gorgeous collection. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Ken Thanks Larry thanks David Thanks David Thanks Ken.

Great looking chevy. I love the patina. Beautiful engine details.

Great build of the Camaro. The white stripes makes it pop. Nice and smooth finish.

Great job on my favorite corvette gen and year. Great color choice.

That's a great pearl color. Great job.

Gorgeous build, looks quite unique.

This is so awesome. This kind of scratch building is way out of my league. I can almost smell the garbage. The outside photos make it look so real. You may have built a garbage truck but your talent is quite the opposite of garbage. Very well done Jeff. thanks for sharing.

thanks Chris. Thanks Helmut. The leaves are ... real leaves chopped in a blender, I did the same trick on my opel blitz truck. Thanks Tom. I had the same issue with the first one I built. There was a little bit of flash, enough too throw it off. all the ones I built after went on great. Thanks David. Thanks Carl.

Thanks James Thanks Ray. Thanks Phillip Thanks Tom Thanks Joe. I believe they have recently issue this kit . It should be easy to get. Thanks Jeremy. Same here, I remember looking for monogram kits every time I was in the store back in the 80's. Thanks Tom.

Amazing job on all aspects of this build Ryan. Your work is inspiring. Your photos are top notch.

Built this RR a while ago. These monogram kits were popular in the 80's, I have built a lot of those. I almost rebuilt all of my monogram collection that I lost when we had to sell my mother's house. I could not save my collection but I was able to rebuilt almost every car except for a few rare items, namely a bunch of jo han kits. This one is painted Tamiya orange and clear coated with TS 13. Nothing added. I always enjoyed those kit for their ease of assembly. They may lack in details but they turn out ok and they offer a good base for those who want to go all out on detailing. thanks for having a look.

Great looking cruiser, I like the outside photos.

Now that is impressive.

Really well built and detailed, the tires are particularly convincing. great work on the scratch building.

That turned out great. Nice detailed engine too. It has that bad boy black on black look. The white stripes really pop.

Great looking Coronet. It sure looks the part.

Perfectly trimmed and painted. The background is very nice.

Great idea as a subject and beautifully detailed. I like it.

Nice and clean build. These snapper kits are great.
