  1. As a Camaro fanantic, I have to say you nailed this one perfectly! Great work. You got all the shades of black perfect. Both 1:1 and 1:24th are stunning machines. He will truly be glad to have this on his shelf. Keep up the stunning recreations.
  2. This gets better and better! I really like the time and effort you are spending to make this look realistic! Great work so far and I can't wait to see more.
  3. I needed something simple to give my brain a break from the extensive builds. So, I pulled out the 69 Galaxie and decided that I'm not gonna go nutz with it. Jus' a simple paint job, vinyl top, wire the engine, and wheel treatment. The exterior colour is a custom mix paint called Fire Red. My camera can't pick it up that well. I sprayed it over DupliColor MetalSpeck Silver to experiment on the POP factor. I have to say I like it better than Pink Primer (Tinted White Primer). I did the vinyl top out of blacked out (via permenanent marker) tan masking tape and wire. Here's where we are for now. Gotta let the body harden up a li'l before polishing, BMF'ing, and clearing. Enjoy!
  4. Sorry, I got home and I fell out from work. I got some work done on the F350. It looks like I'm axing the Utility Bed idea. Oh well. Anyways! I got some body work done and primer shot to show the imperfections I need to get sorted before anything like the final colour is laid down. You can't tell the two cabs have been joined at this stage of things so I'm happy! So on with the update! Roof Ribs were added: Till next time. Enjoy!
  5. Stunning! Lookin' better with every update! I love the Balsa Saw Dust/CA Glue Filler idea! Great thinking. Can't wait to see more.
  6. When you put some clear on that she is gonna sparkle like a freshly cut emerald. Great work!
  7. Now that is stellar. Great job on the stripes and graphics. Did you use Gel Pens for these? Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see more.
  8. Will have an update on this one this evenin'. Be on the lookout!
  9. Foxer gonna be interesting to see how you pull this off. I kinda had the same thoughts on how to make the hinges myself but didn't have the program to lay it out first to see how it would look. I do a lot of Eyeball Engineering. LOL Keep up the great work and can't wait to see more.
  10. Gonna be truly interesting for sure. Can't wait to see more progress on this. Keep at it. I like it.
  11. Stunning execution! You are doing some great kitbashing so far. I'm definately watching this build come to life. Keep up the great work.
  12. Comin' along nicely Daniel. You are sure making a lot of headway on this. Can't wait to see more. This is gonna be a stunning car when done. Keep up the great work!
  13. Let me put some shades on. There, Much better! That car is one sure fire winner! I would say Real myself. The Chromed/Alclad'd Fenders, engine detail, the attention to detail paid to every li'l thing including the body is jus' remarkable and perfect! Great work and Top Notch Craftsmanship!
  14. Ok, I haven't said anything before now because I was at a loss for words. But now, I'm truly speechless as this is getting better and better with every update! Truly spectacular. I can't wait to see more. Keep up the stunningly awesome work! I can't wait to see more.
  15. Lookin' good! The interior panels look perfect! You also got all the body mods look stellar. Keep up the great work! I can't wait to see how you hinge the rear doors. Keep us posted I'm watchin' for sure.
  16. Being a major Camaro fan I have to say you took a picture and turned it into rolling art. This car is absolutely stunning and jaw dropping at the same time. If I saw this car on the track coming up on my tail I would truly step aside for the fear of being eaten alive! Great work, I love everything about it. TWO THUMBS WAY UP!
  17. Yep, Memphreaka here! LoL But you already knew that. I live in the far north area called Frayser. Makes me wonder if we have any other modellers in the Mid South Area.
  18. Ok, I'm not gonna give away where I'm going with this except that the pan has been stretched and body is in the beginning stages of being modded. Looks kinda funny at the moment, but I'm building this with scraps from 2 attempts at making a 300CC Coupe that I started but never could get the body right (or they broke and fell apart). So here we go on this modelling roller coaster. P.S. I've not stopped working on the Ford F350 Crew Cab. I'm a li'l frustrated with the Utility Bed ordeal. So I'm gonna go back to the regular bed and make a topper instead. Also I'm not gonna bother boring you with the puttying and sanding to get the cabs jus' right. Enjoy!
  19. First of Congrats and Good Luck with the new job! Second, I have to say I had to take a double take at those Honey Combs! I thought they were actual rims to a 1:1 till I looked and saw the Popsicle Sticks they are on. Great paint job, nice job on the rims and engine. Keep us posted. I'm watchin'.
  20. Can't go wrong with the colour Red and some Torqs! Did a good job on the foil job and polishing. Can't wait to see more. Keep us posted.
  21. I say run with it. I like the differentness of building it with the lights in the up/exposed position. I can't wait to see more on this build. Vettes are the all time American Sports Car. I'll be watchin'.
  22. This is gonna be a sweet li'l ride. Can never get enough of a good Mopar. Hehe The colour is going to be very fitting bein' a HEMI powered Monster. Keep us posted. I'm watchin'.
  23. Stunning execution! It looks so natural and made that way. Xcellent work! I can't wait to see more. The rear bumper looks real good. Keep up the excellent work. I'm watching for sure.
  24. Lookin' good so far! Keep up the great work! It's starting to take shape now. Can't wait to see more. I've owned several generations of Camaros, Firebirds, and T/A's. I can understand the frustration with the underpinnings hangin' down on your car. My 1975 and 1979 Camaros as well as my 1978 Firebird and 1980 T/A had jus' a tad bit of the rear springs showing. (My Camaros' exhaust hung lower than on the Pontiacs). Keep us posted! I'm watchin' this come to life.
  25. Stunning builds either way! They look like they are ready to hit the strip and see who's got the bigger set. LoL Anyone would be proud to have them or jus' one on their shelf. Keep up the great work. The extra detailing really brings this kit to life. Can't wait to see your next build/tutorial.
