  1. Very nice work with Alclad. I like that "chromed" body and red wheels, that combination is very good looking. Alclad work is made also very nicely, because you have done so many modifications to it, they are all made very nicely. It looks like resin kit, wich you have just painted and so on. All modifications are made perfectly. There are no any mistakes on it.
  2. Very nice Falcon Gasser! I like this body and Gassers are very nice so Falcon Gasser is awesome. I like the color and paintjob, very nice work with it. Wheels and tires are just perfect to it. This one reminds me from very nice "Speedy Gonzales" Falcon Gasser!, it's made in Finland.

    '49 Merc

    Nice slammer, paintjob looks very good to mee too. I like also the color combo. That sidetrim fits just perfectly to this one, but this would look better little lower... But anyways very nice model, it's great to see these older builds here...

    '41 Willy's

    Like these! Your one is very nice, I like that paintjob, it's perfect and color is very nice too. Engine detailing is stunning, all wires and plumbings are on their place. Interior looks very good too, and opening doors and trunk are done very nicely. Like it, thank you for sharing this Willys.
  5. Great build! I like these late 70's American Cars... It would be nice to build this kit some day. Your one looks very good so far, that color combo works just fine for me and nice job with those decals! Engine looks nice so far, keep this thing going, can't wait to see more.
  6. That's very nice Rat Rod. Usually, I don't really like rat rods, because they are rusty... But this one looks very good to me and that rust looks very realistic and stance is very good too. I also like that engine, it's very nice, I think. Interior is great, nothing unnecessary there. Nice detailing gives finishing toughes to it. I like to build these Rat Rods because it's not so critical is you fail somewhere, it can be fixed with rust, for example. This is very nice.
  7. Nice Ford Custom! I like that color on it and paintjob is smooth... Good looking body modifications too. What I can see from the engine, it looks very good too and interior is very nice. That white matches nicely to green. Wheels and tires are very nice too. Keep on building.
  8. Little update! I have finished spark plug wires few days ago. I made them from Scale Dreams' wire. Pretty good looking engine right now, I think. I also glued tire halves together, they didn't fit so well but maybe lots of sanding will help... Those Jo-Han tires are good ones to this. Thank you, Bill Coulter for the info, now I'm waiting when the correct hood arrives... I also built that front axle system a little, it looks pretty good so far, now it's time to move on to the rear axle. And yes, I drilled those four holes to carburetor (don't know, what's their name in enghlish), looks much more realistic. I painted also tire textes... Thank you, for looking, comments are welcome.
  9. This is stunning! Very nice job with it. I like the paintjob very much, and that detailing is very nice. It's wild ride, but that's only good thing. Very nice work with it, keep it going. Can't wait to see, what is coming next.
  10. Yes, very nice. I have been watching this project and your work loosk amazing. That paintjob is perfect and all of those decals are very nicely in place. That detailing is maybe the best part of this build, very nice job with it. I can't find any mistakes from it.
  11. Again very nice '62 Catalina! Paintjob looks very good to me and that engine detailing is very nice too. It's nice to see these kits being built, it's very nice car in 1:1 and this model is very nice too. I like that interior and wheels and tires are very nice, altough very nice model.
  12. Very interesting project you have there- it's not easy to build exactly same looking car that 1:1. It's hard to find correct parts for it. Anyways, your Pickup with diorama looks so good that this will be awesome also, when finished. Keep it going, I'll be watching it.
  13. Yes, Swedish Hot Rodding was pretty much same thing. But of course, when I'm here in Finland, this one is Finnish Hot Rodding Corvette. I can remember, I have read those Wheels magazines (looking pictures) it's bad that I have no idea about swedish lanquage... Alright, it's MPC kit now I know it, but yearmodel will stay '64. Thank you for the comment! Matt P: Thank you for the comment, now I'm trying to get some time for building, let's have a see when comes the next update.
  14. Thank you all for the comments! It's always very nice to hear some positive feedback. Jeff, that Corvette looks just typical, and that would be pretty fun to build. Not so easy, but it's possible to build it. Start working, it would be nice to see some progress pictures about it. George53, Thank you for watching my builds! I'm trying to build well detailed models all the time, I just don't like to build any out of the box models. Yes, it can be MPC '67 Vette. I have been also thinking, if it's Monogram's kit. I'm not sure. But anyways, Corvette models were same looking from '64 to '67 so that doesn't matter, if the kit says it is '67, I think. This is my first time trying to get doors open, so I maybe just make the typical front hinge type doors... Gull wings would look good and funny and they would fit to this but it's maybe too hard to me. Yes, I try to continue it soon, today I come back to home so maybe I can continue this one. Thank you all for the comments, and yes, these glue bombs are very fun to restore! It's worth trying.
  15. Update to my Roadsport V8 Corvette. In the backside of the body, there was one part broke two pieces. I glued that thing back together with superglue. Now I must sand some parts to body, like frontend and taillight panel, for example. I built engine a little too. I had painted the block by red long time ago, and now I just painted transmission by silver and cylinder heads and manifold are siver too. And valve covers are painted by Humbroll Polished Aluminium, they are original BBC's valve covers, but that doesn't matter. They can be some aftermarket aluminium covers, which are looking like stock. I also glued these parts to the body, they are clear, but I will paint them with the same color as the body. This is the 50th post in this topic, and this topic has now 2000 views!
  16. Thank you, Jody! I got some mork work done with this. I sanded those places, where I put bondo on the last update. I used 400 paper, it worked very well, as always. The body is now ready for the first primer coat, then it might need some more bondo and sanding a little... Thank you for looking!
  17. Wow, that's very great Gasser! Love these. I like that color on it, it's just perfect to this one and paintjob looks very good. That engine looks very good too, and detailing is amazing. I like the stance too and wheels and tires are just perfect to this one. Nice job on the BMF and that combination without grille and Mooneyes gas tank right there, looks good. Nice!
  18. Dart got finished just less than one week ago, and now next project is on its way! Engine looksa very good so far and how fast you built it! I can't get that nice engine in that time (well, I can't get that nice engine never...). Weathering looks very good to me and detailing is very nice. I like these old rally cars, specially Group B rally cars were my favorites. My all time favorite rally car is Lancia S4 drove by Henri Toivonen & Sergio Cresto. But anyways, your project looks very good to me, I'm watching this one.
  19. Here is the first update to my Corvette! So, it's going to be Roadsport V8 race car. I like that race class, there are V8 engine powered American cars, like Camaro, Corvette etc. Few years ago there was also Buick Special, but now that guy has new car, '67 Camaro and he is driving Historic category, for now... But, this body is AMT's "Eckler Corvette", and it has been few months in MR Muscle, but the paint didn't leave from the body... Well, I bought Fairy Power Spray, which is very good stuff, I've heard. After about one month, nothing happened! Well, only choice was to take sandpaper to hand and remove paint like that... Paint left pretty well from passenger's side, but the driver's side was very very hard, now the body looks better, and I'm going to take sheet styrene and start doing little modifications to it. Here is the body, when I got it. After few months in MR Muscle and one month in Fairy Power Spray: Sanding... I have put some putty to the dashboard:
  20. Finally a little update to you... I have done some more body work. Sanded the body quite much and now I put some more bondo to it. It looks pretty ok right now, and I think that it doesn't need so much sanding anymore. Next step is sand the body smooth and then of course I must continue from axle systems or engine... Comments are welcome...
  21. Very nice job with it. That paintjob looks very good on it, and I like that engine a lot. Nice details all over, that chassis pic' is really autentic looking. I like that stance and wheels and tires too. Good looking all the way, but one thing, which is disturbing me with this model. That frontend seems to be a little too sloping. I mean, that in real thing it's upright. Maybe that's just because of the picture, but that's not your mistake anyways. Nice job with Camino!
  22. That's AMAZING!!! It looks like real! This is the best diorama, I have seen long long time. Amazing job with it. That Chevy looks very good too, paintjob on it is awesome, and I like that driver inside the cab. That house looks very realistic, there is nice weathering, and Jack Daniel's Distillery sign loks very good to me. I like also that guy, who is going inside the building, he looks really realistic also. And huh, 16 barrels of whiskey! Great. That pickup is so shiny that it fits just perfectly to there. This is too cool, itäs so realistic that I can't say more from it.
  23. That's very good start! I like those modifications, you have done to it. Roadster version is very nice, and it's sad that there are no roadster kits available. I have been thinking of building '37 Roadster, whith my friend... He have a great basis for the project. Those doors are very nicely done too, I didn't remember that Roadster has that kind of doors. Anyways, looking forward to see, what's coming in next update. Great work with it.
  24. Very nice looking Chevy Pickup! I like the color combo a lot. Those are just fitting perfectly to this car too. I like also the paintjob, it's very nice, so shiny and smooth. Nice job with the bodywork too, gloss black shows every mistake, but I can't see any of them. Very nice engine detailing too, what I can see from that picture. Also it looks good when it's just like factory stock, or very close of it. Nice work with it, keep more of these coming. this kit I must buy and build it.
  25. Great project you have there! Somehow I have missed this one before, but now when I look at it, I can say that you are doing great job with it. I like that how it looks now, and interior looks very very good to me. Great job on the modifications too, now just waiting to see this thing cleared. I'm building the same kit as a custom, but I think, I'm maybe hide it forever, when I saw this. Nice work!
