This is a really nice kit I think it's an Aoshima kit? I built this straight out of box, I added a bit of Bare Metal Foil, and painted with the New Testors one coat paint, and the interior was painted with Folk Art acrylics. I love the looks of the real car and I think the manufacture did a great job in reproducing the lines of the real EVO CLICK HERE TO SEE MORE

This is another Beautiful Tamiya Kit. This was built after a challenge was set out by Mike Alverez, To build something out side the normal comfort zone. The body is painted with a duplicolor Metallic Black, The decals were pieced together from the kit decals and Slixx Nascar decals. I added some Scale Motorsport carbon fiber decals to the Wing and front spoiler. There is more cabor fiber decals but once the body was on you could not see it. Click here for more photos

This is the Revell Germany Simba 8x8 kit that I have tried to build 4 times with no success, This time the results were different and I was able to finish it. It's not perfect as I was hoping but I'm happy with the results. It's a pretty crappy kit. But looks impressive when completed. MORE Simba Photos HERE

Here are 2 models I built using the wrecker body First up is a Volvo 670 Once I assembled the cab and wrecker together on the chassis I did not like the look at all the wrecker body sat up to high so I added flat stock to the sides to get the ground effects to match with the cab. I also drilled a hole to add the single exhaust for a clean smooth look. The decals are my own custom design Peterbilt 378 You can see more pictures here.

I should be making the drive up from Ft.Lauderdale again -
This Daihatsu Move by Fujimi was built as a what if pilot program between Daihatsu and the US post office. I added the postal decals I purchased off Ebay. This is a very basic kit but with some interior work including adding some plastic strips and an area for the mail trays I a acheived the plain jane interior most postal vehicles have. More pictures

If all goes to plan I will be there

Carolina Kustom Modelers 3rd Annual --- Aug 21st 2010

Made it to Charlotte NC a few hours ago. Can't wait till Saturday -
This is my second build of the Revell Geramy Neoplan bus, again I converted mine to an Luxury RV. The interior is all scratchbuilt in real wood. There are many parts from Scale Equipment ltd., PSF Hobbies, and many more that went into the construction of this. On the exterior I stole the wheels from the Volvo kit as I did not like the hubcap look the kit comes with. The windows gave me issues from the get go after many tries I tinted them with real window tinting, which turned out to do the job but was very difficult to work with. I then added scratchbuild awnings from sheet plastic and a table cloth. Check out the rest of the pictures
