  1. Very nice well used Dodge. Well done!
  2. Besides, Round2 already had the van trailer molds ready to go. Same as AMT has done in the past: same kit different decals. Hard pass on this one.
  3. Ah, that's what I was wondering. Thanks.
  4. Nice one, Bob. Very well done. I like how you matched your CN Volvo. Kind of got a little fleet going there.
  5. I also doubt that 1/35 will make a big showing in the automotive circles, but you never know. I don't really see Roden making a 1/24 version of this bus even if the 1/35 bus sells well. There just really isn't that big of a bus modeling community, but the modeling community in general is full of surprises. Meng also released 1/35 & 1/24 versions of their Ford F350. It would be interesting to see which version of the kit actually sold better.
  6. Not really being up on the engineering side of NASCAR, how similar underneath the body are the Chevrolet, Ford, & Toyota cars? Could one make a NASCAR Ford Mustang (that is what Ford is racing, isn't it?) with this Chevrolet Camaro with a body & engine swap?
  7. Peter, I agree with you that automotive models are 1/24 or 1/25 for the most part, but let's face it, it seems that the "money" in the modeling industry is in 1/35 armor. Even though the aftermarket for 1/24 & 1/25 automotive is quite extensive, it really can't hold a candle to the 1/35 armor world.
  8. Nice bug! Well done!
  9. Great looking Ford, Mario. Very well done.
  10. Because it seems to me that to most model companies, the only scale for land vehicles is 1/35. Got to follow the money, I guess.
  11. Looks nice with the trailer behind it. I like your details.
  12. That looks like a 210. It's pretty cool, though.
  13. Well done. I have this in the stash. Just need an excuse to actually build it. I think I just found it!
  14. I generally don't worry about it as I don't enter my cars into competitions, and I don't look at the underside of my models in the case anyway.
  15. Great looking old Chevy. Very well done.
  16. Looks really nice. Well done. Yes, it's a tough kit, but you got good results from it.
  17. I posted this in the General section back in July, but I figure this is a more appropriate location for it: Yes, it's a replica of the show car, and not an actual show car; but maybe it will help in detailing the kit. Maybe.
  18. That looks really nice.
  19. Great looking little tractor. Very nice weathering.
  20. Thanks, Don. Didn't know that. I'll have to take a look.
  21. Great looking Chevy. Well done.
  22. That looks great. And it even site level. Very well done.
