  1. That is just beautiful, Jaguar should be building this, I love the design, the paint job.
  2. Jon, I did not know you posted, great job, I just started working on the Aoshima Aventador kit, I will start post it in here No worries Paul, come back when ever you have a build for it.
  3. I just looked at the last page, I see that engine, I look at the ###### that I build, I think its time to find a new hobby OMFrickingG, thats all I can think of
  4. Does Linberg still have a heartbeat?, when was the last time we heard something from them?, I dont remember
  5. Did you make the supercharger? , I am going to try and do twin turbo set
  6. Going to try, it cost money to screw up everytime, I went thru the entire can pretty much on just this build, I did not use it before hand. I do have an A/B, but I need a better compressor , and I dont like using it really to be honest. I will be when I paint the Aventador I dont think the problem was with the paint, but it could be , I am doing another build with Tamiya paint so I will find out, but I had issues with another build using different paint, same problem, I think the primer is the key here
  7. You might be able to find it online somewhere, I have learned that if its on TV, its online somewhere try justintv.com, they stream a lot of stuff live, then there is speed 2.com as well, but you have to have a cretain cable provider to use it
  8. Here is a small update painted the chassis, and installed the front and rear axle piece's and put the engine is almost done
  9. Well I am not sure if my mine is great , I am not to sure if I am going to lower it, I will do a mock up and see how it looks, but that is going to be awhile, I am trying to strip the body , just had bad with paint, I had to fix a small area and I put it on way to thick, I should of stuck Model Master Lacquer, I never have good luck with Tamiya paint, but I like this shade . I need to be pick up another can of paint before I can repaint it, it will be tuesday when I head to LHS so some time next week I should have the body repainted
  10. Ahh yes thats a good point, so really then the cost was low, just tooling for the police parts
  11. Did you get the hobby design open door kit for the GTR?

  15. Nice job Zoli
  16. I am doing this one for a build off on Scale Avenue , the kit, its Aoshima's newest release of the Aventador, this is a much better kit then the Fujimi verison The color will be this, and thinking about trying to do the ground effects as well Here is a pic of the body out of the box, and then a mocked up with some of the body parts, I am not kidding when I say that there are close to 30 parts that make up the bod, two parts trees.
  17. Painted the roll bar padding, the rear axle is done and ready to go on, and the chassis And got the black on the body, dont whats going on, but I have been having issues with painting, I think it has something to do with the primer. I will be sanding and doing one more wet coat
  18. Nice job on the build, I might have to give that a try myself. The other morning I was beside/behind a mid 2000's Ford F-350? six door, I am guessing that was a custom truck?
