    This is developing into a great thread, with some really useful advice. I just read it for my upcoming Johan build. Thank you!

    The concept was great, the execution beautiful. But the cutaway drawing? - - - now you're just showing off!

    Ooooh, such a tasty build! Thank you for posting

    Took the words right out of my mouth!

    Thanks Dan, I'm glad you enjoyed them.

    Following your thread has been quite detrimental to my wallet, I must say! Now I have to have one of each to build too. BTW; I love the last one you built. That's called a Fordoor sedan, right? - - - I'm still learning my '32 Ford body styles.

    So cool! Looking forward to the finished build

    Albert, just WOW! I'm convinced it must be 10 times harder to make a build look weathered than to just make it showroom new - - - and you are obviously a master at the technique. Well done Sir!

    Another beautiful job Bill! And although I never saw Addams Family, the car is no less a stunner in its own right

    Your build is coming out so good, and the car you're patterning it after was so ingenious! Someone made a front mounted mid-engine out of a 30's car - - - so cool!

    Absolutely freakin' awesome!

    That is one sexy ride. All it needs is fishnet stocking pattern on the seats and it's there!

    And I didn't even show you the money spent on botox and silicone!

    It was gorgeous, although British racing green Ferrari?!

    Richard, I think it came out great. I seem to remember your body color being very similar to one they offered on the Firebird of that era as well. Thank you for posting

    The roof and body is getting a nice look to it - - - like it should have come from the factory like that. Well done!

    Thanks Mike. I would estimate there was over 300 million represented there. Crazy, right?
  18. ea0863
    Thank you Sir, although as a fellow Corvette lover, I would have to say our car was underrepresented

    Came out great! With so many cars coming out now either with carbon fiber parts, or CF bodies altogether, our hobby will need to adapt too. It would be great to have a hydro dipping option with CF in various scales and colors. (Maybe such a thing exists, and I just don't know about it?)

    Very well done Sir! Thanks for posting

    Thank you, you are very kind. For some reason, after I uploaded them to this site, the order of photos all changed though.

    Bill, the build looks great! As for Tamiya, I have found two little tricks that really help; 1) put the can in a pan of hot-out-of-the-tap water for 5-10 minutes to let the paint warm up, and 2) after your handful of base coats, apply the final coat "wet" by slowing down your passes and maybe getting the spray a little closer to your part.

    Mark, you are definitely setting a high-bar with this build. The only thing missing is the smell of racing fuel and exhaust! BTW, I was thinking of your build yesterday when I was at the Las Vegas Concours D'Elegance. I had never seen a T-70 in the flesh before. Here's a couple of pictures and a link to the other cars that were there.

    My pleasure Chris. I hoped my fellow modelers would get some inspirations from them. For me, the Vectors were a big deal because there are so few of them, but virtually everything there was rare

    Just attended this show today, and thought you all might enjoy the pics.
