Great job! I’m digging the wheels and the lowered stance.

Great job! Plum crazy looks so good with a white interior.

Superb Olds! The paint and detail work is very clean and well done. Looks like you could drive it away!

Very good looking build! Kinda space age looking car.

Great job on the restoration!

Awesome model! Great paint work and attention to detail.

Absolutely stunning model and great photography! Like everyone else, I thought I was looking at a real car at first. You’ve put a lot of great details into the build and the paint looks near perfect. Your diorama is a great way to display your work.

I’ve been trying to get a little more done on the truck. There was a small short shot on the front fender. I cut a small piece of .020 styrene and glued it to the front edge, then a little putty to shape it up. If you notice the marker light missing, I tried to scribe around both lights to sharpen up the edges for better detail. The driver side looked ok, but the passenger side was molded a little bit bigger and didn’t look right so I just removed both lights and will scratch build some a little later. Meanwhile, I will get the fenders puttied a reshaped correctly, which I started working on this afternoon. On the hood, the Ford letters looked like they were pressed into the hood and the plastic mushed up around them. Kinda shows up in the picture. I tried lightly scribing around them and they looked fairly ok, then I noticed there was a little bit of a low spot around them, hard to see now but would definitely show up after paint. After I saw it I needed to find a good solution for the goof up. I found that the PE set for the 1960 Ford Starliner has letters that are an almost perfect match to the molded ones on the hood. So I’ll use them instead. I removed the letters from the hood and put a little putty on to fill any low spots. I’ll have pictures of the corrected and finished bodywork next time.

You did an excellent job on your Bug! The colors, wheels and stance all work together to give it a cool look. You’ll enjoy it a lot!

Great model! Looks very space age.
