  1. I’m following this one. I do like the 69 Camaro, got a couple in the stash waiting to be built.
  2. Very nice trio of Camaros. Got that no nonsense look with the steelies and hubcaps.
  3. Stunning. Beautifully built 32. Yes, those lazy modeller flame masks are very easy to use, I’ve used them on my model A roadster and 57 Chev builds. Well done on a great looking deuce.πŸ‘πŸ»
  4. G’day Donald. That is superb. Beautifully built and well detailed. I’d love to own the 1/1 version. πŸ‘πŸ»
  5. G,day Len, that aftermarket grill was worth it, certainly looks good in place. That old slant looks good in the engine bay as well. πŸ‘πŸ»
  6. I’m in. I do like the first gen Camaro.πŸ‘πŸ»
  7. The Olds is looking a little better now. After painstakingly removing all traces of my botched attempt to paint it some time back, I had another go at it. I really wanted to build it matador red with black stripes so with a little bit of trepidation I applied 4 coats of Tamiya TS-8 Italian red and this time I’m happy with the result. After applying the decals I’ve put a couple of mist coats of TS-13 clear over them and will slowly build up to a final wet coat .
  8. G’day Len, I still paint the bodies first for exactly the same reason.
  9. I’m really enjoying following this then and now build of this iconic car. Lots of awesome little details and techniques I’d like to apply in my builds. Top stuff. πŸ‘πŸ»
  10. Lots of nice detail work on this one. Good stuff. πŸ‘πŸ» I like these old Pontiacs. We only got the 4 door ones in Australia though.
  11. G’day Michelle, that is one wild looking Phoenix. Tight squeeze getting that rubber under the wheel arches! Nice job. πŸ‘πŸ»
  12. G’day Donald, I’m enjoying the little details being incorporated into the build. Paint on the body is nice and glassy, I reckon this is going to be a stunner when done .πŸ‘πŸ»
  13. G’day Steve. I followed this on the WIP page and know how much you put into the build. The end result is simply stunning. Your brother in law will be blown away l’m sure when you present it to him. Top notch. πŸ‘πŸ»
  14. This is nice, the lack of chrome adds a touch of the sinister to it. πŸ‘πŸ»
  15. Beautiful work on this one. I love these mid-late 60’s Impalas. Top stuff. πŸ‘πŸ»
  16. Excellent work with bits and pieces laying around, and nicely ratted out. Lots to like on this one. Although, looking at those rear tyres, the 1/25 scale driver is gonna get a ticket!πŸ˜πŸ‘πŸ»
  17. Man! That is one 57 you’d be proud to have on the display shelf. Top notch. πŸ‘πŸ»
  18. That is awesome. I particularly like the heat staining on the exhaust. It’s a technique I have tried with my jet fighter builds but haven’t quite mastered. Top notch .πŸ‘πŸ»
  19. Thanks for that Bob. Hope it wasn’t a silly question, but I’ve not seen one on a car here in Australia, although Ive always lived in the southern most part and the climate is quite cold here for most of the year. Thanks for that. πŸ‘πŸ»
  20. I’ve got the Boss 351 release of this kit and if mine turns out anywhere near as good as your 007 version here, then I’ll be happy. Top job. πŸ‘πŸ»
  21. I love the mid 60’s Impalas. All round beautiful build. Great foil work. πŸ‘πŸ»
  22. Nice work. Gunmetal paint always works well. In the photo with the ocean view it looks 1/1. πŸ‘πŸ»
  23. That looks great! This body shape of the 442 is a beautiful looking car ( imho ). The red paint, black stripes look spot on. πŸ‘πŸ»
  24. I love this! It’d make a cool ride in 1/1.
  25. G’day Bob, that is a beautiful looking Olds there. Nice glassy finish on the paint. Lots to like about it. πŸ‘πŸ» One question though, the drum apparatus fixed to the right hand side of the roof, one poster referred to it as a swamp cooler, what is it and how does it work? Im unfamiliar with them. Cheers, Stuart. πŸ‘πŸ»
