  1. You do some amazing work. Your knack for scale realism is unreal. Keep up the good work.
  2. Really nice. Great little street rod.
  3. Love it. Great job.
  4. Very nice. It would drive the purists crazy though.
  5. Wow. On the vavle covers how did you do the Ford lettering?
  6. Looks good to me. Are you planning to put in a diorama setting?
  7. I think that is more likely that its being bought for an investment. At least when a painting is bought it can be hung on the wall. You wouldn't even be able to do that becuse of the fear of it fading.
  8. Very cool model and story.
  9. I thijk that it would all depend on how well the new tool mustang has been selling. Another factor would be if Revell can get them into some high volume reatailers like Wamart or Micheals. I think that somethihg like the firebird would be more likely I'm not sure how well something that would have to fudged would be accepted. A more likely option would be for one of the aftermarket companies would do a 3d printed body. The big part would beccreatijg the cad model however the advantage would be that anynumber of copies can be made . With resin there would be limits on how copies could be pulled from the mold before it would need replacing.
  10. Double wow. That body is real cool. Looked at you fotki pictures. Nice work. What are your plans for a chassis?
  11. Love it start value 99 cents. First bid 1 million. Crazy that much and you wouldnt even be able to read it.
  12. Came out great. By the way what kind of mileage does it get? Seems like all of those engines would use a lot of fuel.
  13. Saw a nice 67 or 68 camaro-hugger orange with a black vinyl top. Really looked clean.
  14. Wow I thought that that was a photo of the engine you planned to do. What did you use for the belts?
  15. I've seen the hydrographics used for doing wood grain for car dashes. Wonder if the process could be scaled down for models?
  16. It is unfortunate that this happens. I also have had some interest in figure kits and a lot of artists stopped producing kits. The issue is that the recasts are never the same quality as the originals. Shame on anyone that knowingly buys a recast. Buyers need to support those who put the effort out to make good products.
  17. Nice job Ira. Came out great for such a short build time.
  18. Like your version as a van. In one of the many verions was the monkey ward van which looked horrible. Nice job rescuing a broken model.
