I didn't see this one get started, but glad I saw it now. Looks good, Mark!

Nice job, Andy! Your build is beautiful. -Art

Donn, this one looks great! Thanks for sharing, Doctor...

Nice job on this one!

I cut off the front suspension and pinned it so I can remove all of the seams on the tub: There was a gap between the fuel cell and the tub so I blocked it off with some styrene. The real car has no gap, so this was the best I could do here: More to come. Thanks for looking! -Art

I recently got started on a goofy little project a couple of weeks ago. I picked up this snap kit at the Citrus Nationals for 2 bucks last month. I had always wondered about these kits, but had never seen one in person. I was surprised when I opened it how detailed it was. So I thought it would be fun to see what I could do with it. I don't plan to go overboard, as there is a lot of stuff that could be "fixed", but I thought I would just add enough details to make it look good and go beyond its snap heritage a little. I decided to do Mario's '91 Indy ride. There aren't a whole lot of pics, but I've been able to cobble together enough references to get it pretty close. Indycals' '93 Newman Haas graphics are pretty close to '91, so I'll only need to make a few little decals to get it to '91 Indy graphics. Here's Michael's team ride: Mario on the front row that year: Here are some of the components of the kit: The steering wheel was a little thick, so I replaced the ring:

That's a good one. Nice job!!!!

Looks great, Charlie!

That's going to be one wild rod!!!!

Great looking car, John!

Gary, I can't advise you on the paint, but I will say, "Build a model!!!" You'll love getting back into it and relive the joy you felt as a kid. Glad to have you here. -Art

Nice build!

Looks great, Chris. Happy belated birthday! -Art

Coming along nicely!

Pete, That looks like a fun event. Pretty cool how the homepage of the show at Squadron featured your attendance! Enjoy the trip! -Art

Very nice!

Simply incredible, my friend. Incredible... You are an artist!

Anything with an Offy in it is cool, and this one turned out real, real nice. Great job.

But maybe not a real quarter?? Looks great, Mark!
