Beautifully built Cougar. Love the period deep offset wheels. Top stuff. ππ»

Iβm lead to believe this kit is an older tooling and not great, however, you have turned out a beautifully built model. The modern wheels compliment it perfectly. Well done ππ»

Ford Falcon XW ute
STU111 replied to Cool Hand's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
That first mock up shows the body to be quite nicely proportioned, still waiting for mine to arrive. I like what youβre doing with yours, Iβll be following your progress. ππ» -
Iβll be keen to see what you do with the XW Ute Luke. Iβve ordered the XY Ute. Not sure what Iβm going to do with it yet, nice custom or old bush basher.

This is an excellent build, itβs the clean and simple appearance that makes this l feel. And that paint has a beautiful glow to it. ππ»

Beautiful Shelby Mustang. The modern wheels compliment it nicely. Top stuff.
-
Beautiful work Donald, that colour really suits. That surgical tape you used on the convertible top does give it a nice fabric texture. Top stuff. ππ»

Gβday Michael, regarding the window fitting, yeah, Iβm currently building this one and I had to shave a mm off the sides to get the rear screen to sit in the recess in the body. Cheers, Stuart.ππ»

Iβve got one of these in the stash. Keen to see how yours turns out and to pick up some build tips for when l do mine.ππ»

Got the interior together, Iβm not too sure about the decal seatbelts, theyβll look ok when itβs all finished and inside the body, but they wouldnβt look any good if it was a convertible. Iβm pretty happy with how it all looks though. Cheers, Stuart.ππ»

Medium brown metallic? I know what youβre thinking, did he shoot 6 coats, or only 5? Sorry, Iβll stop now. Seriously though, I am an Eastwood fan and I love a TV/ movie inspired build, so Iβm following this one. ππ»
-
Oh yeah, this car has a real presence. Cool. ππ» Lots to like about this one.

Gβday Mario, nice work.ππ»Beautiful paint. I canβt bmf wheel archβs, these days I do them with a beveled edge chrome marker. These 70 Torinos, from the rear, side view remind me of the Aussie XA GT Ford Falcon coupe.
-
Nice work there Luke. I particularly like the cherry mica on that GTR Torana.ππ»

Looking great Donald. The tape gives a nice texture to the convertible roof. Excellent choice of colour. Iβm looking forward to seeing the finished product. ππ»

What Are Some of Your Favourite Kits That You Built?
STU111 replied to Falcon Ranchero's topic in Model Cars
These three stand out for me, because they were a joy to build from start to finish and the end result on each build turned out exactly as the vision I had for them before starting. Cheers, Stuart.ππ» -

Gβday Luke, you seem to use the SMS paints fairly regularly, Iβve wanted to ask, how are they in terms of user friendliness and quality of finish? Iβve not used them before but have purchased some to replicate the factory colours on my HQ build. Iβll be spraying them through my trusty Iwata airbrush. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. ππ»

You had me at Mustang. Seriously though, that is a beautifully done mildly customised Mustang. Nothin too fancy you say? Hits the spot for me. ππ»
-
Smooooooth! Beautiful colour. Is that Tamiya pearl green? Itβs certainly a clean eye catching build. Top notch. ππ»
-
This is going to look tuff as. Keep the updates coming. ππ»
-
Surgical tape for texture on the convertible roof? Nice. Iβm interested to see the results. I guess a convertible top would have a similar texture to a vinyl roof.
-
Lens two tone rim idea does look the goods, but any of the above choices are gonna look great on this one. Looks awesome at this stage, looking forward to seeing the final product. ππ»

Hey Tom, itβs a nicely detailed kit and lβm enjoying it ( apart from my first attempt at painting the body! ). Hope to see your build on the forum in the future. ππ»
