  1. That is nice.
  2. Very nice work Bruce.
  3. Project R32 Red/White/Blue, Tamiya Nismo Custom R32 kit, paint from Scalefinishes, this is was done as semi replica of a 1:1 replica of the Group A R32 raced in Toohey's 1000 in the early 90's What I was semi replicating
  4. Rob is correct this was a "Big Game" commercial.
  5. I agree 100% , we need , or I should say , it would be nice to get some new modern tractors .
  6. I can't recall who did it, but one of the resin casters made a resin abmo top to fit the vans, but I just simply can not recall who it was , and Google isnt helping either other then a few photos from it being listed on a "whats it worth" website.
  7. Its neat little kit, I highly recommend getting, I had fun building mine. I dont know why you guys are all shocked that HL has it, its been reboxed for the US, and its a part of the line of kits from Revell that HL sells.
  8. Finally getting around to building mine, been feeling a bit left out seeing everyone else build one, so lets get to it. Unlike everyone else, I am going to be using the Ford GT Le Mans paint set from Scalefinishes The engine, Metalizer Aluminum on the block and Metalizer Magnesium on the trans housing, along with some colors on the other bits. And getting started on the chassis/interior, the chassis and interior were first primered with Mr Surfacer Black and then coated with Testor's Graphite aka poors mans carbon fiber And the body, it has been painted, you know, very easy paint job to do, the only hard part is masking off the rear section on the sides, its very tight back there.
  9. Just gotta get thru Golden Week first
  10. It only makes sense for them to do the Gazoo Racing Supra .
  11. martinfan5

    Ford GT

    That actually looks pretty cool
  12. My list is easy, anything from 80's forward .
  13. One is a SUV and one is a CUV/crossover , so no, they are not cars like a the Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, C-Max, Mustang and Taurus , those are what we consider "cars". Like I said, the only "car" Ford is going to be making in the future is the Mustang, they will still be making trucks/SUV/CUV/Crossovers.
  14. It was suppose to be out here this month , but talking to Marc at M&S Hobbies at DSC a week ago, he said his suppliers are saying May for the US, so who knows.
  15. Agreed, I mean, for that, Ford would need to, oh, maybe continue making cars beside just the Mustang.
  16. When Ford announced the start of this program they said it would only last till the end 2019, so this isnt a surprise to everyone involved.
  17. Color me excited for sure.
  18. Oh you are so correct Steve, there is always room for improvement, and its such huge boast when you start to see the improvements you are making, makes you feel good and kind of gives that extra push to keep striving for the next level.
  19. Interiors are my weak spot , I feel I have a lot of room for improvement
  20. Its not a new issue, its the Protar kit being reboxed , it was released in March , and is going for about $35 , you can many of them o Ebay https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=Alfa+Romeo+Giulietta+Spider+model+kit+&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_osacat=0&_odkw=Alfa+Romeo+Giulietta+Spider
  21. And Chuck here brings up a valid point, without that "whining" I bet those things would of never been addressed , so "whining" as some want to call it actually does something good from time to time. I think many are confusing honest constructive criticism and feedback with whining ( maybe not here, there is a good amount of whining in this one, so bad example) but, we all have to right to give honest constructive criticism of models kits and the companies, as long as it done in a respectful manner, and that seems to be lost today. But then you have people getting attacked when they do give honest constructive criticism of the kits or Rond2/Revell/Moebius( that doesn't happen when it comes to Japan companies I notice) because a large percentage of builders take any forum criticism as a personal attacks. Carry on.
