  3. Thankyou very much to all who have commented,much appreciated LOL ,you know me mate love my black paint. With some practice im sure you be able to get the same results. Thanks heaps Doc,Its great to know that you like them and it means alot to have you comment on my builds.
  4. 10 Completed so far, hoping to get atleast 2 more finished before the year ends. Seeing as the Doc asked for some eye candy, these are my favourites for the year
  5. Couple more pics. Like I said built same way and style as the Nova Will post some more outdoor pics of the Chevelle soon
  6. Another Amt kit converted to a curbside Lowrider. Not much to explain about it as its built exactly the same style as the 72 Nova I posted recently.
  7. Good job for you first build You can never have too much black IMO
  8. Wow ! Amazing work as always,looks like a 1:1
  9. Thanks again for additional comments much appreciated No overcoat, just used XF-57 buff paint Andy
  10. Thanks for the additional comments. Its all good Jesse I kinda thought when you stated Form>Function it might have had something to do with the ride height,but i thought id ask what you meant first to make sure. Lets just imagine it has airbags
  11. Yep that be the one
  12. Nice clean build as always Cliffo,I like what you did with the rims. The green is a cool and different,but me being me I like the black one you built a year or 2 ago that little bit more than this one
  13. Thanks Stuart, Jim and Jon Jesse what do you mean by Form>Function ??
  14. And a few more final pics
  15. Some more pics.
  16. Thanks Rodney Thanks Antonio,some of your ricer builds provided inspiration for this build. Thanks Terry,certainly would be ok to own a 1:1 version for sure.
  17. Thankyou Mark,means alot to get a comment from such an accomplished builder. Sorry Andrew no pics of the underside,it has no detail,metal rod for axle's and is just painted flat black.
  18. Fujimi kit,built my way. Once again body is painted with Tamiya TS-14 black (my favourite) Interior is painted XF-57 buff Done away with back seat and parcel shelf and filled the void with styrene which allowed for fittment of some Aoshima subs,speakers and amps. Steering wheel is from a Aoshima Hilux kit . Rims are Aoshima Luxy type-4 19inch (wheel set also had the audio parts included) Lowered Cut out the molded in detail of the front grille and replaced with KA models photo etched 0.5x0.7 quadrangle mesh. Also opened up the bonnet/hood vents and installed some more KA mesh 0.3x0.3 square . Aluminium tube exhaust tip. Just a few pics for now,will post some more when the number plates are done. Interior before it was installed
  19. Wow ! Thankyou very much for all the comments,I didnt think this build would appeal to many people. But I guess I was wrong, its great too see so many of you comment and like it.
