  1. Beautiful E-type there Hugh, that colour looks great. Well done. Cheers, David. ??
  2. Scott, your builds are always so interesting and your style of building is way cool. "Inline six, say no more." Really well done and thanks for sharing. P.S. I've added a pic that might interest the Inline six fans. Cheers, David. ??
  3. Great build of the super car that started it all. This particular colour (mauve purple) in a 71 Miura SV is currently for sale on the Tom Hartley website. Your build is a very good likeness of this very valuable 1:1. Really well done Steve. Cheers, David. ??
  4. Gorgeous GTX there Scott. I like that you built it with the side glass up. Really well done. Cheers, David. ??
  5. Under hood detail is amazing and the way you researched it is fantastic. Well done James on keeping these older builds in such good condition. Cheers, David. ??
  6. Very nice Olds there Sabeyah, your detail work is good. Well done. Cheers, David. ??
  7. Beautiful Starliner there David, I really like the factory tint on the windows. Well done. Cheers, David M ??

    Nissan Laurel

    I like how you rusted the area of the quarter panel where the Laurel badge would be. Well done Luis. Cheers, David. ??
  10. You nailed that sinister look on this one, well done Andrew. Cheers, David. ??
  11. Great weathering Luis, well done. Cheers, David. ??
  12. Yes, I've heard of this technique. There is one guy on this forum (I can't remember who) that uses the flat tip of a pencil eraser coated with white acrylic and dabs it onto the raised letters.
  13. Cool COE there Brian, you nailed it, well done and thanks for sharing. Cheers, David. ??
  14. Great refit on your iconic movie car, well done Ace. Cheers, David. ??
  15. These type of builds are usually the most fun as the stress factor of making a mistake is virtually non-existent. Great detail and weathering, really well done Andy. Cheers, David. ??
  16. Very cool Luis, well done. Cheers, David. ??
  17. Really nice Skyline, I love the colour contrast between the body and wheels. Well done Luis. Cheers, David.??
  18. G'day all, l want to share a white letter tyre technique I was experimenting with on the weekend. I was looking at paint pens at Officeworx when I had a thought, this might work on my model tyres. It's an acrylic 1mm tip white paint pen produced by Uni Posca. For just under 5 Australian dollars I thought, why not. Back at the workbench I prepared the pen according to the instructions and used my magnifying visor. The paint flows at a manageable pace and lays down thick but drys flat. The tyre with the cragar wheel was my first attempt and went on a little thick. The other tyre I took a bit more care and it shows. These particular tyres have very bold lettering but I'm fairly confident it would work with smaller lettering too. Here are some pics of the results. Cheers, David. ??
  19. You have truly captured that 80s look with this one, well done James. Cheers, David. ??
  20. Very cool club racer there Luis. I like how you gave it full negative camber up front, ready for some fun on the track. Well done. Cheers, David. ??
  21. Really cool take on this classic Japanese limo, well done Luis. Cheers, David. ??
  22. Nice Torino there Rodolfo, really well done. Cheers, David. ??
  23. Nice beetle there Mario. I also built this kit and agree, it's a good one. Well done on yours. Cheers, David. ??
  24. Great story on this one Bart, it reminds me of a barn find. Well done resto too. Cheers, David. ??
  25. Nice Mustang there James, I was almost expecting it to have the straight six engine. The non standard colour choice looks nice against the white interior. Well done. Cheers, David. ??
