UPDATE: That "Unicorn" Kit has been painted and decaled. Next mock up... I have a few of these C30 Vans

I thought I would do this in one shot. 4 shows im going to between September & October. The mess Baja Bug almost done Wheel & tires change GMC Blazer using the wheels & tries from the bug 1962 Buick Special Wagon Chevy 3100 Ford Thunderbird Pro-Street Don't know what im doing with this yet... Time to get back to building. First show the 13th Sept.

Not sure yet. It might be a diorama. I have the "Kiss" band figures. Thought I might print them 1/25th scale and display them with the van with speakers in the base and play Destroyer album. Who knows where this will go?!

Getting That "Unicorn" Kit Some kits are just plastic and instructions. Others are history, heart, and time travel. Back in 1977, I was ten years old—bright-eyed, glue on my fingers, and too impatient for paint. My first kit ever. Straight from the box: no modifications, no weathering, just decals and raw enthusiasm. It ended up as a Fourth of July firecracker of a build. Flashy, chaotic, unforgettable... and, if I'm honest, a source of regret for the next 48 years. That kit was my introduction to the hobby, a spark that turned into a lifelong passion. I never forgot it. I chased it like a ghost, always hoping one day it’d reappear—not just as a model, but as a second chance. Then it happened. At the Heartland Model Car Nationals, surrounded by craftsmanship and community, there it was. My unicorn. The same kit I built as a kid, waiting for a proper welcome into the present. This time, it won’t be just glue and decals. It’ll be everything I’ve learned since—precision, creativity, evolution. A tribute to beginnings, growth, and the wild journey in between. To new beginnings... and to finally doing it right.

Foose Ford FD-100 Pickup Our club is has a "Club Challenge" every 3 months. This Challenge is "box art". Lol... due at the end of the month. I bought this kit from a club member, missing engine, exhaust, and disc brakes for $10. Having a 3D Printer and a ton of files, I started printing. Ford predator 5.0, tarmac transmission and calipers & rotors. Box Art doesn't show the engine&transmission, so I'm good. I had to lower it about 6mm to get the ride hight the same as the box. Calipers & rotors are the same (drilled & slotted), just larger (more realistic), a mockup engine, for now. Really can't see the interior, so it's going to be maroon & grey. Enjoy the pics

I'm building one myself. I think I may have posted up a few pages back. there's a good selections of 3D parts. All the 3D models of MaNyKustom・Cults

I feel your pain! I'm in the same position now myself, and it doesn't help that I have a 3D printer.

Another WIP... This is the mockup I showed but lowered. Hoping to have it finished for "Pony Express" show.

So no one like my 3D mockups, then here's a 3D printed mockup. 1970 F250 Super Crew Utility. ? Enjoy!

2023 F350 w/24s

My latest mockup. '82 S10 on a custom chassis with semi wheels. Not sure what wheels I'm going to use (24" or 19"s), still looking.

smooth out the firewall. that will give you tons of room.

My name is Ken, and I have an addiction. 3D Printing! I'll pick up a kit, look at the wheels, "No, there has to be better." Next thing you know, I wake up and there's 3 different bodies printing, f250 crew cab, box van and a civic. WTH?... I was only looking for wheels!? Well here's the civic in mockup... Not sure if I'm going stock, JDM, or lowrider

Monogram '57 Ford Del Rio Ranch Wagon. Club challenge, tri 5s build. Not a Chevy fan, so I'm working on a Ford. Wipple blower on a 5.0 Coyote. Hot rod wire wheels. Have till Sept to get it done.

The bench is never empty! I had someone tell me it's cheating to use 3d printed parts at the last HMCN.... New WIP. Chevy box van. Everything will be 3d printed for this build. I don't care how much resin I go through! More pics as they come off the printers
