  1. Nicely Done! David G.
  2. I'm member of a few others but not that one. I also have a Facebook page of my own called Model Cars, Mostly. Why do you ask?
  3. Uh..... maybe subconsciously. Thank you so much for your kind words Michael. Knowing the level of work you do, your compliment means a lot to me, thanks. David G.
  4. Wow Michael! It's quite the grand adventure that this build is leading you on! Still, it continues to be worth the tremendous effort you're putting into it. Well done Sir, well done! David G.
  5. Those are going to look great installed! David G.

  8. A beautiful Jaguar! I like all the added details. It's refreshing to see one that's not red. David G.
  9. Astounding! Even your backdrop buildings have as much or more detail than some other frontline builds. Nicely done Si! David G.
  10. Thank you Carl, I'm so close to wrapping this one up that I've already started planning my next build. Thank you Noel. I do tend to lean toward quirky and unusual builds. But I take them seriously and give them my best effort. Thank you Chaz. I always try to make each build the best it can be according to my own abilities and it's nice when people can see that. Thank you. David G.

  20. The whole car together seems to have a Ghia-designed feel to it. David G.
  21. Here's one that I'm working on. I'm hoping to have it done soon. David G.
  22. Hello Everybody! Due to the age of the molds, this kit is in rough shape. It's not the worst I've worked with but it does require some extra effort to make it presentable. The radiator, a prominent visual aspect of the model, was a hot mess as far as fit and alignment goes. The seam where the front and rear halves come together needed to be built up and filed smooth multiple times using CA. It's just one of the things that needs to be dealt with when building kits with old molds. So here's the end result. I have to say that I'm quite pleased with the way the gold paint turned out. I was truly surprised by the Rustoleum gold paint. I've had bad experiences with this brand in the past but I'm very satisfied with the results this time around. Maybe I've just gotten better at working with it. Of, course I had to reward myself with a mockup. The fender-puppies (sphinxes) are glued on but the rest is loose. The next step is getting the cobras sorted and finished. Closer and closer! As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to share your thoughts. David G.
  23. Great idea using the magnets for the hood and hinges. The body prep looks good too. David G.
  24. Everything looks tight and clean so far. David G.
  25. A beautiful build! Excellent detail and decal work. David G.
