  1. I agree. Embossing powder looks more in scale in 25th and regular flocking would be more in scale for 12th.
  2. Rat Rod style but shiny. Posies Thunder road and the rootbeer pickup loaded come to mine. Still looks great.
  3. Coming along nicely. Some great work. Looking forward to more.
  4. Looking good. The frame and engine look great.
  5. Works fine on my android tablet. No problems on my iphone 4 using safari.
  6. Very cool.
  7. Very nice. Your wood work is always very realistic. The upholstery is also impressive.
  8. Looking good. Hoping you get it done. If not I would suggest you still take it. Lots of nice work.
  9. Cool. Outstanding weathering. Using thr tracks from the Rommels Rod was a great idea. Looking forward to more.
  10. Impalow smart choice on the 3d printer. With 3d printing being an emerging technology its best to get someting to play with and learn the technology. You are fortunate to know how to do the 3d modeling as that is a huge part of using a 3d printer. . Also like what you are doing with the cutter. Another option would be a laser cutter but I'm not sure about the prices on them. Thank you for sharing what you are learning. Will be following.
  11. Cool project. The shelby chassis looks like a great idea. Like the idea if the v10. Keep up the good work.
  12. Nice work Chris. Your brass work is nice. Keep up the good work. I will be following.
  13. Ray looks good. If you are going to use decals then you need the glass to avoid silvering. You could should fkat clear after the decals to get the satin finish.
  14. Great start. Great color.
  15. Love it. Love all the little details.
  16. Very nice weathering job. Love the stuffing coimng oht of the seat.
  17. Very nice. Amazing paint work considering the size of the model s.
  18. Yes it should be an accurate copy however it is a retail product with a set price and budget constraints which impact the final product. Also there is a need to get it released in a timely fashion. If you want a model of something you have 3 choices buy a kit or create a model of it or buy a model and fix the issues. You build Pocher kits and look at the things you have to fix. And Pocher kits are considerably more expensive relative to the kits that were being produced at that time.
  19. Stunning work. Did you use the cutter for the sest? If so did you drill the hoes or use the cutter?
  20. Ace the process that you take measurements and divide and get an exact replica is the ideal case. However if you read Art's statement above the reality comes into play and its not just that simple. Think of it as connecting the dots. Somebody takes measurements and pictures and hand them to somebody else. That info is handed to somebody else and then they create the dots. A third person is handed the page with the dots and told to draw the picture. If they have no clue or only a general idea then that affects what they end up drawing. BOttom line. Kits sre going to end up with flaws. Everybody needs to deal with that in their own way. Ignore it, fix it, not buy it at all are all possible solutions. Endlessly discussing this is a futile endeavor.
  21. Love it. Great start. I also I agreeshowing where all the parts came from wasbnice.
  22. I like the idea of showing the frame. Think it fits the look you are going after.
  23. I would suggest staying away fron pincrest. It won't let you doing anything without an account and I would at least look and decide if I want to bother with an account.
