  1. Yes Harry, thanks for reminding me, it was certainly Cruz who posted his. I think I will PM him and see if he can share it with me. Of course, I still want to see some others chime in.
  2. Last week while on E-bay, I won a bid and today I just received a cool Lamborghini Miura. Has anyone here build one of these? I hear it's a great kit and I remember seeing someone here build one. Just wanted to get some ideas on how to go about building it and seeing which colors would look good on it. Please help
  3. John Teresi's Bentley is just awesome. Who else got the issue? The little changes look good, now you can even see which issue is coming next. Great job guys!
  4. Two words for you... SPELL CHECK!
  5. Hey you lucky son of a gun, didn't you see your Impala on a future cover in the magazine? I envy you
  6. Come on guys, it's not a "show me your 50's Oldsmobiles" type of thread, you should ask permission first instead of apologizing for posting your work on other people's threads. Nice job by the way.
  7. Very nice, I must subscribe to the magazine, had to see the one my friend ordered. I did like the upcoming issues for April and May on one of the pages.
  8. Cruz, you have got to build one and share it with us here.
  9. Great start on this, it's a very nice kit, I had the fortune of buying a built one from Cruz, he did a terrific job on it. Are you adding a vinyl top? They look great on these cars.
  10. Thanks for the video my friend, I enjoyed it a lot. Loved your '66 Impala.
  11. You could have saved a lot of money by you tubing some info on do it yourself light boxes. You have to definitely work on your lighting, it's way too dark. I also think it's a little small.
  12. I finished a 65 Impala but added rally wheels, would this still be considered factory stock?
  13. I am in the process of putting together a Hemi engine and was wondering who carries the boots for the spark plugs, I thought I had seen some models here with them.
  14. At a show I went last year, I told a really good modeler that his model looked like a Franklin mint build. He was offended by this, REALLY? Anyone here been through that?
  15. Turned out really cool, needs more noticeable panel lines but other than that it looks great. Color is really nice along with the pictures.
  16. Hey guys, I am interested in taking a few pictures of my models. I just built a small light booth so I have the lighting I need, my question for you camera gurus is more what settings should I use in my camera? What Fstop settings should I use? Aperture? Speed? Please help. I have a point and shoot type digital camera but I am able to manually change a few settings if need be, I just need to know which of those settings are the best to use.
  17. I am more of a collector than a builder and to me, the most critical part of cleanliness on a model is the paint, usually when that is done right, everything else pretty much falls into place. One of my favorite builders here is Cruz, his paintjobs and the way he approaches his builds are always unique, I know, I own 3 of his builds. I do see a lot of cool paintjobs here but some seem to be a little on the thick side, I think that the mastering of polishing kits are a must if you want to be more than just an average builder.
  18. I was given this kit by my wife in Christmas and felt kind of intimidated but after seeing your work in progress I feel a lot more comfortable now, thank you so much for sharing this and all your work with us. My kit had 2 of the tires with the same problem you had, I am hoping Revell can help me with that. The Alcladed rims look really good on this car, surely something I will be doing with mine also.
  19. Is this a question? I don't understand.
  20. Awesome work as always Cruz, my favorite? That Victoria is hard to beat.
  21. I would love to see one of the forum members here start a WIP on one of these just to see how it goes together. Any suggestions from you guys?
  22. Hey Cruz, nice job, I have a question? Did your kit have any defects on the tires? Mine are all off-centered. Would this be something Revell might replace at no cost?
  23. Wow Cruz, what a gorgeous build man, that paint is just dancing with the sun! You have got to share your secrets for such fine paintjobs with us. Engine is amazing, I followed your WIP in this one and learned a lot of new tricks, thanks for sharing.
  24. Cruz, how do you get that flocking to look so nice and even? Everytime I try that, I get bald patches in different areas. What glue do you use for this?
