  1. Here's a mockup of the chassie and a picture to show how the roman soldier will look with his arm stickin' out of the left window. The cut-out in the right A-post is to make space for the exhaustpipes.

    Very nice build!
  3. Awesome design, me like alot!
  4. Nice work on that limo!
  5. Here's the latest mock-up. I'm a "slow builder" but I'll try to have this one finished by the end of september. The driver will be sticking his left arm out thru the side window holding his left hand on an heavily overgrown shifter, also sticking out the same window. The rear "tires" were made using toothpick-containers combined with old AMT white styrene slicks and the front "tires" were made the same way using some kind of dispenser for vitamin-pills. The roof has now been "upholstered" using real fabric to look like canvas. The chassie will be Red Baron parts and scratchbuilding.
  6. Great job on that one and a very interesting tutorial! Thank and good luck with that old P-U.
  7. With the knowledge of TKM resinstuff You've really created a fantastic model!
  8. Wow ! That's a really cool sled!
  9. Very nice build !
  10. Yeh, that's right. I'm doin a 1926 Hanomag Showrod right now, in 1/25 of course. Here's a simple mockup.
  11. I use an extra "nickname" that I've registred using my wife's relatives' address in the US when doing business with "US Only-sellers". My wife's Uncle re-pack and ship the models surface mail to keep the cost low. This way, the seller doesn't even know he sells to a person outside the US and I only have to pay the domestic shipping extra which usually is $5-6 or so!!!
  12. This one's my "winter transportation" : And this one is my summer-toy:
  13. Volvo, Volvo, Volvo...ehhhh, did I say Volvo???
  14. My vote goes to the Norseman. May it RIP !
  15. VERY nice builds, all of'em. I especially like the VW thou...
  16. The grille-shell is actually a 1/32-piece from an old Aurora '32 Hot Rod but I think it works pretty well on this one as well! And Yes, I did swap the engine.
  17. General rule is that a MIB model is always worth more than a built one. My meaning however is that models are supposed to be built! That's why I never pay any top $$$ for a kit, but rather wait til I find a cheap one !
  18. Ghia, Ghia, Ghia, Ghia and...oh yeah Ghia!!!!
  19. Very nice build!
  20. I've gotta agree with Hans. That ol' Bucik may look good, but it doesn't even come close to the Ghia !!!!!!!!
  21. Very nice build. I love seeing oldies built like this!!!!No "high-tech,p/E,resin ######, but pure styrene, some glue and paint. Below is my take on the same subject.
  22. This one is probably the funniest AND fastest build I've ever done. The parts went together very easy. It's a curbside , it has very few details and that's why it was fast and easy to build! Also, it came out EXACTLY the way I wanted!!
  23. I buy quite a lot of models but I really plan to build them as well, even thou I know I'll never get enought time unless I'll be 2-300 years old...
  24. Nice old ones!!!
