Interesting project, can't wait to see more progress!

Thanks for posting this!

Those are very cool, and nicely done!

That came out pretty dang good, and it has to be satisfying to see the ol' ride again, even if only 1/25 size! Well done. I'll be following along on the Dart.

Nicely built pair of racers. Good job!

Clean and classic! Good call on the color; that's really a nice green and it works well on the Lincoln body. Nicely done.

Very cleanly built, and looks the part! Nice job.

Very NICE. Years back, I sat down with my Calvin and Hobbes collections, and used every picture of Spiff's spaceship as reference for a blueprint for a good model of the ship. I noticed right away that while mostly the same, the interior panels did seem to vary from time to time. ( Fairly typical for science fiction, come to think of it! ) After working out proportions, details, etc., I promptly misplaced the entire sketchbook, and have yet to find it so I can continue this most coveted project. You really captured the look here, I feel, balancing realism and cartoon perfectly. Let me also offer kudos to you for NOT attempting any sort of figure of Spiff himself. That character must always and only be realized in the imagination. If you've read the Calvin and Hobbes 10th Anniversary Book, you get some fantastic insights from the artist about cheapening a comic character by turning it into some mass produced 3D junk. That's why you don't see C&H toys and merchandise everywhere. You will never see Hobbes hawking Insurance in any printed advertisements. The artist's ( Bill Watterson) integrity is refreshing, and every fan should read that book. I plan to do my ship as typically "landed" by the intrepid explorer: mostly crashed. I want to represent Spaceman Spiff only by his footprints in the alien soil, walking away from the craft and into adventure... Thanks for posting!

Very happy to see this!

Classics. Love the strong colors, you just need one in a vibrant blue to have the primary colors covered!

It may not be the factory color, but it's a great looking color for your mopar. It's looking sharp!

NICE! I even like the color. What an elegant looking ride for a humble Olds. You stole it!

Another thumbs up for Sam I Am; got some goodies from him today in a painless trade!

Cool build. You should do a thread in "Tips and Techniques" on how you achieved your finish on this one. It looks very believable. Some areas look blistered, as if it were a car that got too close to a fire. The part I like: it's still a good looking car! You can't hide the lines of a good looking automobile, and this is one of those that always just looks good!

Neat little buggy, and looks quite realistic. Well done.

Excellent work, and a gorgeous color choice. Very nice.

Ordinary (at best) kit with extraordinary skills applied = very nice model. VERY well done.

That is the correct color!

This will get more responses if you post in the correct forum: "Model Building Questions and Answers"

This does a lot right in my eyes, I once (briefly) owned a red 68 Chevelle SS. Beautiful model, nicely done!

Fantastic build! Great color, realistic and believable, cleanly done. Well done.

Shaping right up!

Nice job! Sharp model, digging the 2-tone.

+ 1 for this grille!

Nice use of this kit! Very cool concept.
