Great build! The red really stands out, and the wood looks real! Nice work! Sam

Beautiful model! The paint is really nice - great color! It's nice to see a 36 ford that's not turned into a hot rod. Sam

Great looking wagon! I like the color. It's nice to see an unusual subject being done so well! Sam

Very cool, Rich! I love the old Mopars. We had a 57 Dodge wagon when I was a kid. Sam

Great build! I like to see these base model cars built. They look more like what we saw on the roads back then. Great work! Sam

I'm guessing it's a very well done model.

That's really well done! Very real looking. Realistically cluttered, but not overdone. GREAT work! Sam

Very nice Merc! Great color and woodwork! Sam

Amazing build, Harry! Really nice work! Sam

Looks good so far. What scale is it? I built a couple model teardrops, one in 1/25 and one in 1/12. And a 1:1. They're cool! Sam

Very nice! The yellow really grabs the eye! Looks good with the racer in tow. Sam

Rick, I used real mud on this Jeep. I mixed dirt from the garden with water, then dipped a 4 inch paintbrush in it and flung it on the model from about 2 feet away. I had taped off the wiper paths on the windshield before I did the splattering. I brushed the wheels and tires with mud too. Then I shot the Jeep with clear after the mud was completely dry. This method might work for you. Sam

Very cool truck! Looks like has been well used for years! Nice work! Sam

The Super Bee looks........Super! Very nice build! Sam

Very cool! The backgrounds look very real. The dirt and debris on the cars look great. I like the Comet! Sam

Wow, that's nice! Great color, and so clean! Nice foil work. Sam

Building things does seem to be becoming a lost art. In 2006 I built a teardrop camper trailer which my wife and I go camping with. It always draws a crowd in campgrounds, and we give people "tours" of the trailer. When I tell people I built it myself, some of them (mostly younger folks) lapse into absolute shock to think I can do such a thing. One guy even said "Are you some kind of genius?" Heck no, it's basic carpentry - nothing too difficult, but I'm surprised that those people are amazed. Here's a pic of the trailer being used.

Ditto what he said! Very nice work all around! Sam

Good looker! I like the color - it really pops! Sam

Very nice model, Jurgen! Wonderful details! There is a large antique machinery show here in central Pennsylvania each September, and they always have steam tractors running. They hook some of them up with flat belts to drive portable sawmills and other farm equipment. It's great! Sam

Very nice build! I guess the obvious joke is this banana has "appeal"! Yeah, bad pun, but great looking model. Nice work! Sam

Here's number one for 2014, an MPC (Round 2) Jeep built out of the box. It was a pretty simple build, but I had a fit issue with the hood and front grille. It took a little sanding and filing, but it isn't too bad, I guess. Paint is Krylon olive green sprayed over with Dullcote. Pardon the dust on the windshield. Comments welcome! Sam

Good looking 'Vette! Great color very clean build. Nice! Sam

Very nice old truck! The putty on the front fender and the green moldy-looking wood are great touches! Nice work! Sam

Looking good! The foil work looks great so far! Sam
