MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. This is mostly box stock, but I did raise the rear end just a little with some plastic shims. And I used some Parts Pack tires because I liked the white letter look better. I liked the decals that came with the kit. (For those who ask, the motorcycle is a 1/24 scale factory-built 1966 Triumph Bonneville from a Spanish company called Ixo.) I added a couple comparison shots with a W-200 I built years ago.
  2. This is Bandai's 1/48 scale All Terrain Scout Transport or AT-ST (also known as the "Chicken Walker"). It was prominent in "Revenge of the Jedi" in the fight with the little Ewoks. Neat little kit. Comes with a detailed interior (which you can't see through the hatches). Fun to build and weather. It stands about nine inches tall. Terry
  3. Lindberg's old dirt modified kit. Someone told me that this is patterned after an East Coast "cutdown" style modified. I remember cars like this racing at our little quarter mile track when I was a kid. There were a couple that were head and shoulders above the rest. I remember mostly that they were really loud. 😮))
  4. Nope, same one. One funny thing I learned--the "Jungle Buster" markings on the actual APC were applied with shaving cream just for a photo. Gotta have fun where you can...
  5. 1970 Kaiser-Jeep M54A2 5-ton convoy security truck from AFV Club. This is the base cargo truck kit with a scratchbuilt Vietnam gun box. The simple box was built from various sheets of Evergreen styrene. And a Tamiya M113. The "Cambodian Jungle Buster" was part of a drug interdiction program on the Cambodian border with Vietnam also in 1970.
  6. This is an Automodello 1969 Chevy Kingswood wagon. It's 1/24, primarily resin with lots of photoetch trim. Beautiful model. Paint and finish are well in line with the price point. I was surprised to hear about these. Automodello usually does classic and luxury car models so this kind of mainstream car is unusual. Then again, the Kingswood was Chevy's top-of-the-line station wagon--not quite a Cadillac, but close.At 1/24, this is a big model. But I had to have one.
  7. Some Duplicolor something--metallic blue, but I can't remember more.
  8. One of the shots I did for "Hot Rod Model Kits" in 1999 was this one of three Monogram Model A hot rods. The blue one in the page photo was borrowed so I had to return it. So I built a "Blue Bandito" a couple of years ago to reproduce it. Used shiny paint, though.
  9. Built from the more recent Monogram re-tool.
  10. Monogram Tom Daniel "Bad Medicine."
  11. Monogram's Tom Daniel "Bad Medicine." I changed the decals and colors.
  12. This is more a show rod than a dragster, so I put it here.
  13. I just finished this rusty old hot rod. I have some things I need to touch up and fix, and a couple of things to add, but this is pretty much done. I'm going to put it away for a while and move on to something else. I still need to find a color for the bed floor because it's too rusty. I tried some gray washes but they faded too much. So I'll try some other ideas. The black pickup was based on the old AMT instruction sheet--the "Barris-designed" drag truck. I made mine more streetable. I built it for "Hot Rod Model Kits" in 1999. Think I'll build something out of the box--no deviations, for once. Maybe...
  14. I just finished this tired old hot rod version. Still needs touch-up and some fixes, but I'm going to put it away for a while and move on to something else. The black one was built for "Hot Rod Model Kits" in 1999. Same kit, different ideas.
  15. '64? Chevy Nova modified. This is Big Donkey Resin. Sadly, they seem to have shut down. I guess some bodies are still available at Mike's Decals, but this car was about five packages put together to build a complete model. I really liked their products. They did wonderful stuff.
