  1. What we have here folks, is not the most recent of builds, though some tweaks and updates have recently been made.

    The build is meant to be a tribute to fellow fan of Hot Rods, Gassers, and Drag Cars.  Our friend the Goon explains...

     

    - Thanks for looking, take care.

  2. Called, "And It Was Good Dream", this build was in fact based on a dream and childhood memories of some formative years in Japan. The build is meant to channel the fun, unapologetic styles of some Japanese custom/hot rod shops (ie: Paradise Road)and U.S. car clubs such as Deadman's Curve C.C.. The story of this hard-chopped coupe follows on the card pic. The backdrop of a favorite hobby shop and favorite food, fronted by a pie-crust slicked show-n-go '32 coupe, indeed makes it a good dream for me.  Thanks for checking it out.

  3. Sorry for the late response TransAmMike,

      I am not in the military, though the Marines did bring my family here in 1986 and we've never left.

    Military family history and growing up around aviation have fostered a strong interest in military 

    subjects, though muscle cars and hot rods have always been a part of life (and model building life).

    Thanks for the welcome folks and looking forward to sharing some cars and diorama-type builds.

    Take care all.

  4. Aloha all,

    This is my latest completion. The kit is the Revell '76 Torino, done up in a Street Freak-style. The scratch built backdrop and details represent a longstanding local hobby shop. It was great fun building such a wild machine and figuring out how to replicate the model shop details and items.20220114_073453.jpg.9fd1ecf83d64b4825d3c35503c9be605.jpg20220114_073523.thumb.jpg.844ecc328756103e18ca3ef8fc645414.jpg20220114_073824.thumb.jpg.181993f4be1a2eb0fb110c00d6d8f482.jpg20220114_072747.thumb.jpg.319d52511b632c686a2c8d534fc4d2b0.jpg20220112_193725.thumb.jpg.114df3ebfea291ed3cf363ee43c7e414.jpg20220114_073736.thumb.jpg.063db06f3b62007c7cc25ab918bfb532.jpg

  5.  I have been a long time reader of MCM and lurker here at MCM forum and decided it was time to join in the conversation.

    The builds, sharing, and discussions here are a constant source of inspiration. My model building interests range from 

    military subjects (planes, ships, armor), sci-fi, diorama, and of course cars (hot rods, customs, gassers, etc), which

    means the number of started projects greatly outnumber finished work. I look forward to sharing with you folks.

    Take care.
