  1. You are a master man, this is a truly beautiful build, from the paint to the small details, you outdid yourself with this one. The tires really set it off, simple dogdishes but this model says a lot. This thing should be in the cover of the Modelcars Magazine, you hear that GREGG!!!! I love the fact that you share so much with your builds at the workbench section of this forum, always look forward to your builds. Thanks for sharing it with us mortals. Wish I could build half as good as that.
  2. Well, I tried doing everything you said but I still get a lot of scratches at the end. Question, do you wet sand when doing it, I did it dry. Would that affect it? I tried it on a model that I had stashed away for about six months so I know the paint is dry. Any ideas?
  3. Wow! Cruz told me about you man, I believe him now, really incredible work my friend!
  4. I want one of these Cutlass' so bad, you just don't know. Terrific job man, nice clean and most of all, simple. I guess that less is really more!
  5. Now, that's a thing of beauty man, just remind me not to compete against you in the Replica Stock division! I believe what you say about the back window, specially when you have an old sheet of BMF, it won't stick as good as a fresh one. Truly, the combination of colors in conjunction with the BMF sets this thing apart, hope you can finish it soon.
  6. Very nice work on this, love the color you chose even though I think the metallic flakes are a bit out of scale but other than that I think it's a gorgeous build. Love what you are doing with the engine.
  7. Hey Cruz, what's going on with your Charger? Any updates? I am still hoping to see this thing finished.
  8. I will have to make my plans to get over there also, looks like a lot of fun!
  9. Hey man, get this thing done already, I am getting desperate! Love the color you chose for this, it is period correct and w/ the black accents it will really stand out. The paint job is outta sight man.
  10. Was about time you decided to do something with this, thought you moved to the moon or something. Love the way the vinyl top came out, can't wait to see how the foiling and everything else falls into place. Does it have a clear on it? Panel lines are perfect too.
  11. Sweeeeeeet!!! The photos help a lot in bringing out the subtle details.
  12. That is a bad ass truck Cruz, sometimes less is more, this is simple but yet it speaks pretty loud, love the chassis detail.
  13. Engine looks awesome Cruz. What paint did you use for that? I bet you went through a bit of work trying to get that decal on top of the engine to conform to that surface! It's gonna look awesome when you place it in the engine bay at the end of the build.
  14. I do like all that oddball stuff myself man, great job on this.
  15. Phenomenal job on that Nova, color goes well with it too.

    Hey you lucky son of a gun, your Merc is in the monthly issue of the Model Cars Magazine, looks real good. Pa' encima Puertorro!!
  17. That is awesome man, very realistic. Looks like one of the P.R. beaches, is it?
  18. Oh my God, I am so afraid, please moderators, don't torture me and send me to hell for doing this
  19. I like the body lines on that model, like Bill says, it is the most correct one. One of the guys here did one not long ago and I thought it came out cool. That thing was lowered down and the paint was immaculate. I own one of them myself, one day I will take a closer look and see if I can do something with it.
  20. I have 2 of those models, hope to do one of them one day, they are beautiful.
  21. Looks like you are starting in the hobby, pretty good work there my friend. Just keep in tune with this place, it will help you a lot. Guys here don't criticize, they try to help out.

    What pads did you use to polish up that model? I have the ones from Micro Mark, hope they are good. The chassis detail is awesome on that thing man.
  23. Yeah, but it was your intention to talk trash about people right? You can go ahead and apologize all you want, you need to get your story straight man.
  24. For once, I wish you posted something that doesn't show how "great" you are, you should be a little more humble and recognize that you are just another one of us out there. You know that when you posted that message you did it with all the intentions of provoking a negative answer and you know? Here it is. I have talked to several guys in the Island and yes, you are not very welcomed there but now I know why, hey, word gets around man, what can I say. In the meantime I will try to do the best to always praise the work that the guys in the Island do and believe me there's a lot of brothers in this forum that know what I am talking about.
