  1. I have been watching this from the start and the finished product is just beautiful!!!!
  2. I really like the color combo.
  3. TĂșlio,you did a beautiful job on it all around,smooth paint work and that color looks very pretty in the sun,just a very nice clean build!
  4. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!....I love it!!!!,dare to be different!!!!!
  5. I can't believe the undercarriage...that just looks to real!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!
  6. You know,I honestly thought of the "NASCAR" trailer also painted the same as the truck and I have an old un-built Revell ASA T-Bird I could do the same to go with it...thats if I could find a decent priced one....
  7. .....This one is a hard one to answer,I been following this topic......for me I did the modeling thing starting back in the early mid 70's when us kids would go to the local drug store and buy a kit for a few bucks and rush home to build it and I got a little more into with the hobby in the late 80's and by the mid 90's right before I quit the hobby I was getting just a lil' above novice,trying different things but never really "WOW'd" myself. Started following the forums here a few years ago when I was kicking the idea to start back up again and who was my inspiration????....my case it was more like who(s)....it was some of the members right here in this forum...the few that got me to go wow!!!,really?...Hmmmm I gotta try this,I need to learn more....are people like Mark D. Jones, the attention to his detail and all overall,this is why he is the "Master", Dave Zinn, his detail without all the "Bling"and when I saw his first semi truck he did,I was just blown away,I went out that weekend and got my first victim, Dr. Cranky ,for his weathering/rust and just his flat out "used junk"look made me just want to do this to just about all my next projects in some form or another, Harry Pristovnik for the idea that using cheap acrylic paint from Michaels isn't only cool and price saver but also such a huge choice of colors....these are just a few members that really come to mind that made me really want to do better and try different things and ideas to make my projects much better AND enjoy my project even more. I also have to say I have learned so much from other members here as well,just too many to mention,being that there is so much talent and ideas its just overwhelming and thats the beauty of this hobby and the Internet today,we can learn from builders all over the world.....now if some of us could learn to take criticism as a learning tool without wanting to make it a bash fest,because without the constructive criticism how can we learn to improve.....just my two cents....
  8. Amazing what you have done with a simple curb side promo kit,I am enjoying watching this one.....
  9. Use the dash!!!!....that just looks so cool in there.
  10. Great lookin' Lil' 5 window!!!
  11. Wow that is sweet!!,very nice detail,love to see more!!!
  12. Thanks!!!,yes the grille was just black washed a couple of times ...I just used cheapie "Americana Acrylic" from Michaels cost $.50 a bottle then I went over it again with a light coat with "The Detailer" black wash...
  13. If not a shrink ray,then a giant checkin' the oil.....I am glad Steve did a bump on this...this is a truly amazing work of art and is something you just never get tired of looking at nor do you ever stop seeing details you may have missed from the last look....just amazing....amazing!!!
  14. That looks fantastic!!!!...I have always loved the Cougar,I had a '68 and I thought you couldn't make the design look better than they did until I seen your creation!!!...Great job on the body transformation!!!,Merc sure missed this design!!

  19. Hard to believe that started out as a cheap looking diecast 4x4,that under carraige is just outstandingand the engine also and the interior is.......well you get the point....OUTSTANDING!!!!
  20. Of course,what other way can you describe a Mini????.............Very nice Nick!!!!,your work gets better n better with each build you do.
