Thanks George Glad you like my models all I can say is look out for my future stuff Ben

Hi Arni Thanks for the comments glad you like it. No it is a 1/18 Sunstar diecast model which I totally striped and rebuilt piece by piece... I like your Idea alot as I quite fancy building another kind of garage/shed and I think the fallen tree could be a nice touch... Hmmm... you got me thinking now...lol Thanks Ben.

Hi George no problem Bart is my nick name hense the user id lol Yes I was thinking maybe construct a hood with a torn roof it just the surrounding diorama im not sure of?? I like to make a scene but not sure what this would fit into? as im from England and these car are American so no to used to seeing them around? Glad you like the windows Chris not alot of people notice them but they are a must for the overall effect thanks..

Thank my father for the photos he took them for me he likes to take photo's and I think he got the first one of it in the garage spot on alot of people said they thought it was was real!! Well off to start my next one not sure how to do it though 1964 ford mustang convertible any ideas?? Ben

Thanks guys I wish it was real I would love to get my tinkering hands on one of these cars!!

Im sorry you feel this way I was just unsure where to post this as It is a diorama aswell I will remove the ebay ref but this model is not yet on ebay as im still tourmenting myself about putting it on as I really love it.. Im not trying to advertise my models but just thought I would share them with other model car makers who appricate these I hate selling them but I have a found a way to make a bit of extra cash by doing something I love to do and making people are unable to do this very happy. I see your point though... Glad you like them Cheers Ben..

Hi Fendermender! Thanks for the comments... The fencing is made from cardboard if you get a piece of fairly thick card board and pull of the thin side pieces it leaves you with a corrigated side. I then then just cut it to size then spray it silver then just rust it up with some paint on a sponge. Its cheap easy to do and give a really good effect. Thanks

Hi Everyone just thought I would show you my latest creation...... Let me know what you think??? Ben..

Thank for the comments guy's, After researching myself the Corvette is fibreglass! oh well never mind I still like it. I picked these models up from junk sales for pratically nothing so it doesnt really bother me to much I have learnt alot from doing these three and really looking forward to doing some more. As for the gravel it is infact cat litter and I agree looking back at the pictures it does look a little on the large size but have found another manufacturer that is much finer so am going to give that ago. The Diorama in the pic's was only a mock up for the photo's as when I took photo's of them on there own it felt like something was missing so I just used an old piece of wood and two pieces of cardboard sprayed silver for fences and then poured some cat litter on. Im currently starting to build on a much larger scale a scrapyard sceen which im going to have alot more detail and cars on. Yet again thanks for the coments its been a big help and will post more pics as the scrap yard evoles cant wait to go looking around the junkyard sales tomorrow need some more cars!!

Thanks for the comments guys, Yes the Jag's are all metal and rust well I should no this has my farther restored one from one found in similar condition to mine looks!! as For the corvette im not sure? as Im from england so dont see many over here? But it is a model from the late 50's so i presumed they were metal bodies? not sure maybe some on here can tell me? As for the trash etc at the bottom of the window i used some stuff for making grass mud etc for model railway layouts gives a good effect.. and leaves are actualy real one's dried out.

Thanks never thought I would have to try and paint rust its pretty difficult o get it to look right but think im getting the hang of it now!?

Hi all, This is my first attempts at a couple of 1/18 diecast cars hopeing to have a full junkyard soon! Loving the stuff on this website let me know what you think? Cheers Ben.
