1/16 Scale Army Vega Funny Car - Finished 10/14/2018
W-409 replied to Mooneyzs's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Can't wait to see more of this- bolts on the timing chain cover and oil pan are looking really good! I can't wait to get MPC Vega FC glue bomb, and get building it. It's 1/24 scale, but body is same style. Great progress, keep going. -
Well, it's getting close to finish, but now there are coming some more pictures. Not too many updates anymore, I'm trying to get this one finished maybe today, or tomorrow. At saturday I'm going to take this (and few other as well) to local model car show/contest. So tomorrow it needs to be done, but I think, that's not a problem. I glued chassis to body, everything fits really nicely right now, and now I'm waiting for glue to dry. Also added some black wash on the grille, and painted Chevrolet logo too.
-
Thanks, David! Next week I maybe have enough time to sand it, and then new coat of paint. Chassis needs to be done too, but right now I'm bit busy with the '57 Chevrolet. Maybe next week I can get this build on the bench again.
-
Super clean build! Is it modified from '41 Willys, or is it Resin or something? Detailing is great, and that works fine with gray primer. Wheel choice is prefect, and this is really Nostalgic and Old School Drag Racer, that's why I like it.
-
Great looking '62 Bel Air! I like the paintjob, and finishing is great too. Even if I'm not huge fan of Lowriders, I must say that those wheels fit nicely. Great job as always, keep these coming....
-
It looks good from here. But I'd like to see more pictures from it...
-
Great job with it so far. Can't wait to see more. That color is great, and wheels look good too. I'm building AMT's '67 Impala and I'll use Rallye Wheels to it. Interior looks really nice, keep it coming.
-
This one looks good! I'm suprised to see something else than Drag Cars from your bench. Something bit different. Engine detailing looks good, and those wheels fit prefectly. And Happy Birthday!
-
Actually, I have no idea where it is from. But that one is just from my parts box. Maybe someone else knows better, I'd like to hear also where it is from... I could cast resin copy from that, but it is too hard to cast that part yet, maybe some day...
-
Thanks, Doctor! I like that red too, it's Revell's Enamel paint, number 30. Painted with spray gun. Here is again little update. I installed the interior. It fitted really nicely and it was very easy to glue on its place. Also I found battery for this one. It's Delco. I had to remove bit material from it, because otherwise the hood didn't fit. But now everything fits just fine, and battery needs to be painted... Here you can see the difference, polished body, but hood isn't polished yet.
-
Windshield and rear window installed. They fitted really nicely, and now I'm going to install the interior to body, and then coming the chassis. Hood needs to be polished also.
-
That bike is the best one, I think. It looks very good! Other ones are not bad, they are amazing too. GREAT job on them!
-
Thanks, everyone! Sometimes I draw very much and sometimes I'm not doing this for an week maybe. But I'm trying to get better... I'll keep an eye of those books, if I find them, needs to buy if I have money. And now I could continue that Futurliner bus. Thanks all!
-
Thanks for the pictures! Now I got it, that styrene back makes it much stronger, I meant that if that back is made from can aluminium, then it should be bit weak maybe. But I haven't tried yet, so maybe it should be great like that also. But with styrene back, no problem, that's the way, I'll be building it. Thanks. and yes, I like that square tubing too, it's way better.
-
Great concept! Turbine car is really nice, but Wagon version looks even better! Really nice, color is great, because it's not that original one. Maybe it would look better clean, but that's not bad. Amazing job with it, keep these coming. Turbine Car Pickup should be really nice too, or maybe 4 door sedan...

Really cool Corvette! WIP was great to follow. Nice idea of a Mid Engine Corvette, and you've built it very nicely. That color fits nicely, and that top looks good with that fiberglass effect. Great build overall, engine is really nice too.
-
I've seen great drawings here, and I think, I post something, I've been trying to draw... I'm not good at this, but I'm getting better slowly. I usually draw cars from the side, but this '59 Cadillac was something different... And now I'm trying to draw Futurliner Bus, let's see how it turns out... As I said, I'm not good at this, just wanted to share these.

Great paintjob on this! Those bubbles are looking very nice, and all in all, the paintjob is amazing. Like the stance, and those wheels look good. I'm not sure about that modern engine, but that doesn't matter too much. Really nice build!
-
Thanks, Andy,Randy and Tyrone! It was about time, yes, that's true. Maybe next week I paint some more, but now needs to wait until the paint is completely dry, then I can start sanding. And that's really weird, that Andy goes across this topic, and then bit later there comes an update after long break. Maybe I could continue the chassis while the body is drying.

Trumpeter 65 Ranchero ..... Box Stock
W-409 replied to SteveG's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Really great build, and this one shows, the kit is really great too! Nice paintjob, very smooth and shiny too. I like those wheels and tires, they look very realistic. Engine bay looks great too. I like it, this is a must have kit. Maybe stock, or Mild Custom...
