    I like your finish on it. You even got the color variance of the end caps (bumpers) looking different from the body. As they are in the kit, they are a tad too dark. Aoshima should have did the body finish like they did for the BTTF cars.

    The red interior really looks great.

    Love those wheels. My real 83 Mercury Marquis Brougham (fox body) wagon had a similar wheel. Made by a Brazilian company called Mangel. You have a nice project going there.

    Well that's gonna have to be added to the stash

    Greetings. I saw on your list that the hood for the Scout is coming soon. I would like two of them when they come available. Not rushing as I understand the constraints of managing the the hobby parts and a full time job.

    I want it.

    I never bought that particular kit because I just didn't trust it's accuracy. I might have to buy it because it looks rather nice.

    That is an awesome looking piece. Very nicely done.

    I'm digging the dash detail. Very well done.

    I really like your two-tone paint on this car. It's perfect.

    Very good choice on the Kelseys. Not a fan of continental kits but on this car, it's appropriate. Was never much room in those trunks.

    The wood grain part will also fit the coupe.

    I knew that Moebius acquired these a few years back. I had hoped for a quicker release of these, but all good things take time, especially in the hobby world. I have a couple of these and I certainly will get another one. I miss Gary Schmidt greatly and this is a legacy of his commitment to the hobby. He was a good friend and he always let me come around the office and hang out a bit. I also wrote and illustrated the Model Behavior comic strip in his second magazine.

    Pretty awesome craftsmanship. It's witchcraft...LOL ! He takes everything and breaks it down as seperate geometric shapes and creates the whole. I learned some new things here. I don't know if I can duplicate the work but I know Bill Geary has done stuff like this.

    Nice model. I think your passenger headlight is upside down though.

    It doesn't look that bad in my 70 year old eyes. I understand about the age thing. All in all, Tamiya kits build up well.

    This might be easy. Unscrew the screws on the chassis. This will release the bumpers and body. Glass and interior may be easy too, that depends on how much glue if any was used to secure it. The pieces are usually held on posts by little rings of plastic. You might be able to pry those off very carefully.

    Modeling tools are getting more high tech. Well, it's all cool. Hmmm, maybe the wife will let me buy one.

    Interesting way of painting still on the sprue. Will the attachment points remain hidden when assembled? It would be easier for me to paint in this way.
  20. lordairgtar
    Oh yes, you are correct.
  21. lordairgtar
    Coolness
  22. lordairgtar
    Awesome
  23. lordairgtar
    Even for a simple chassis, it's quite nicely detailed. Lot's of possibilities on this project
  24. lordairgtar
    Great beginning to a cool project.

    And beanie babies
