  1. Hey Harry, that is really well done. Love the interior, and the two tone paint looks great!

    As they say, "each model is just practice for the next one...". I have had a few months of lacking modeling mojo as it were. When I start to fixate on, or notice, the flaws more than the enjoyment of the hobby, and what I may have gotten "right" on a build, I know it is time to take a break and do something else.

    Keep plugging away, and looking forward to more of your builds. 😉

    Well, after making all the mods to my Fairlane chassis, I couldn't get the back half to work. Once it came out too high, now its sits angled down so I wound  up printing a universal chassis I designed and cut it to fit. Still needs a couple of crossmembers, the floor pans fabbed and installed but at least now I see the light. I had to take a break from it to see the forest for the trees.
    Now for some more body cleanup, and prime it. I think maybe painting it will give me the kick in the rear it seems I need.

    Sweet!

  3. My first completion in a while...

    Good kit, except for the 2 piece engine cover/rear wing assembly. Spent more time doing the body work on that than the entire rest of the build 🤣

    Color is Splash Paints Porsche Mamba Green with Mr. Super Clear, and polished.

    Wheels are Texas3DCustoms Forgiato EV-100 done in a Tamiya Bronze color and Molotow chrome accent. Never much cared for the original wheels the 1/1 car came with.

    Added some plug wires, but that's about it.

    Cheers
