Hello again! Been off working and camping so not a huge amount of progress on the 959. Hopefully I'll get it finished but I still think there's more I can do to make it less toy like...... not sure if its just my poor camera work but I'd appreciate any opinions! Hope you enjoy them.

Thanks Rick! A bit more practice and I'll be happier with the results

Lulz, found some more images This was one of my earlier car projects. I really like Japanese sports cars and drooled for a month over this one. This is Tamiya's 1/24 Nissan GTR. THe finish on the paint is pretty awful and some day I'm gonna strip it and repaint Hope you enjoy them!

Hello all, Managed to grab a few moments to take some pics of my current WIP. Body was undercoated with Halfords white primer and then the colour coat wa built up using Halfords Honda sonic blue. I'm not sure if any 959's were relesed in that colour Suspect not but what the hey Hopefully get a chance to work more on this car over the weekend. Hope you enjoy what little there is! Have a great weekend!

Thanks for taking the time guys! Outspoken: Cheers, it never occured to me to wipe off the finger prints but I can see why thats important. Yeah, I agree I need to spend a bit more time on the details. I think as I get more practice, I'll be more inclined to spend extra time on the details. The Mustang was my first car project. Got this mad desire to go postal on the showroom detail on these things So much easier to build and weather an easy 8 (M4A8). Ok, got some haggis to chase off my lawn! Thanks again and I'll post some 959 progress shots soon! Slainte!

Hello all, The warm welcome encouraged me to post a couple of my recent builds. I am all ears with regards to constructive criticism This is my Revell 1/24th Shelby Mustang: I know the colors a bit off but I didn't have any other car paint around. Most of my previous builds are F16's and shermans I'm building a Tamiya 959 at the mo so will post some progress (ha) pics after work. Thanks for any comments!

Many thanks for the warm welcome all! Regarding the Whiskey, I never touch the stuff I prefer Aussie Shiraz or Finnish Vodka depending on day, time, ambient temperature, company, stage of model construction. The nearer I get to finishing a build (lulz like that ever happens ), the clearer my tonic has to be! I'll port some of the build I've done recently that survived the kitchen redistribution project. They ain't great but thats why I'm here! Oh and we only wear kilts during ceremonies. Rest of the time we face nature with its own devices Cheers for now!

Hi all, Just found this amazing site! I mostly build 1/24 scale cars and the occasional Sherman/F16 but cars are where my heart is. There seems to be a huge amount of talent on this site and I'll be eyes open wide for the next few days. look forward to swapping tips and thoughts! Cheers for now! Paul
