  1. Wow Kurt, you got quite a lot of work done in the last session! This is always one of my favorite parts of a build, when it all begins to finally come together. Everything looks great. BTW, I noticed that the battery looks like it has four cell caps. Is that an eight volt system or some type of German battery configuration? David G.
  2. That's one beautiful long-roof! Clean, crisp and tidy, it could easily pass for 1:1. David G.
  3. There are a lot of sweet looking cars there. Thanks for posting these photos, I really enjoyed them. David G.
  4. Nice color combination and detail work. That came out sweet! David G.
  5. Hello Everybody! I started painting the interior with Tamiya Light Gunmetal for the steel floor plate. I liked the "steel" seats so much that I wanted to get a photo. After several layers of masking and paint, here is the basic interior color scheme. The directions don't call out one specific color for the seats as there is no detailed representation of the interior in the comic. The colors suggested art "Flat Black, Flat Dark Blue, Flat Gray, even Deep Red or Burgundy." I chose to go with a dark red. Given that this is a comic book representation of the Batmobile, I wanted to add a little color but not go overboard with it. I think I'm happy with my choice, I'll know for sure once the figures are painted and seated. That's all for now folks! Thanks for taking the time to look and always feel free to offer a comment, question or opinion. David G.
  6. Thank you Carl, I'm rather pleased with how it came out. David G.
  7. Beautiful work Bill! It looks so delicate, dainty even. David G.
  8. Wow! This one has been on quite an interesting journey. Nice work on it so far, I like the sneaky fender work. It should be great when it's finished. David G.
  9. Wow! You don't see many of these, either as models or in the real world. Nice work on both of them, love the color. David G.
  10. Nicely nestled! David G.
  11. Hi Steve. Thanks for asking, unfortunately it's been almost exactly a year since I last worked on it. Every time I think it's about time to dust it off again, I get a great idea for another fun project, and well, I'm sure you know the rest. David G.
  12. That is a tough call. What I usually do when facing such a dilemma is look at lots of online pictures of my subject. Doing that usually helps to inform my decision. David G.
  13. Nice added touches with the detail bits. David G.

  15. Nicely Done! Love the fat tires and added details. David G.
  16. Nice clean and well detailed build. Definitely an Eighties vibe, nicely done. David G.

    V-Dub

    Nice little roadster Bug. David G.
  18. Nice work Steve. It's a really cool concept and very well executed. It reminds me of those custom cars that companies would have built for use at trade shows. I remember seeing this somewhere. I think you posted a shot of it in one of my WIP threads, the '59 hearse conversion that I've been working on for what seems like forever. David G.
  19. Excellent work on the figures! Phenomenal detail painting. David G.
  20. Neat color and graphics, they give it a kind of Eighties vibe. David G.
  21. Thanks Dirk, I appreciate your comment. Thank you Dave. Yeah, I saw this one early and grabbed it. It was a little over priced but it was also the only one I've ever seen. David G.
  22. Nice work, looks like about the right amount of shine for that era. David G.
  23. Sweet little roadster! Love the paintwork, color and details of the engine and undercarriage. David G.
  24. Thanks again Chaz. It's funny how the public perception of their music has changed over the past 40 or 50 years. They've gone from "What in gawdz name are you listening to?!" to "Oh yeah, they're the ones with Ozzy, right?" Sounds like a great idea, if I still lived in the Youngstown area, I'd plan to stop by. David G.
  25. Beautiful work as always Mario. Great color choice and detailing work. David G.
