Great looking Mustang. I like the colors and the engine detailing.
-
This looks great for such a basic kit from long ago.
-
I like the back story on this build. The engine is nicely detailed and the finish on the body sure looks the part. You're right about the sound of the exhaust on a Chevy six at full song with little or no mufflers.

AMT Chevy Silverado

Removing the body side trim makes a lot of sense since this is a real work truck and wouldn't normally have all the gingerbread trim. -

Great looking engine and I like that you corrected the rear differential. Many would never notice such a detail. -
I like the color and the finish is impressive along with the CF Wing.

'36 Ford 5ive window coupe, old build being resurrected.

What is the point of "light Beer?" Either you want to enjoy a nice refreshing cool drink, or you just want to become bloated, and need to visit the facilities all too often. -
MPC dodge van 1978 4x4

Great looking go anywhere Van. There was a company that was doing 4X4 conversions on these vans at that time, so this isn't that farfetched. -
Great job on the paint work and decals. I hope you cast a copy of this body you created since it looks good.

It's easy to see why she would regret selling this VW. I remember when the Cow seat covers were a thing. Great looking reproduction and hard to tell them apart in the photos. She better start saving some money and try and find one on the used market.

I like the clean style and the paint finish. The scaffolding in the back look like a track-day car.
-
Both look great. I like the color on the BRZ and think the 1:1 cars are cool as well.
-
Beautiful paint work. A lot of fine trim details.
-
Beautiful looking painmt and trim. These were very elegant looking cars.
-
These would make a fun scratch building project, but if you want to just splice in something already made check out the AMT '62 Pontiac kit. The kit has the parts for a Super Duty style build and include some nice an era authentic cutout.

AMT Chevy Silverado
espo replied to Rusty92's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Maybe if you can smooth just the area in the door trim were the 1500 appears and then use the decal that shows the 3500 with the gold bow tie in that area. Those are great looking decals, good idea. -
I wonder if there are any interior decals that would give just a slight off white to cream color for the seating surfaces. I have used some from Scale Motorsport before and they work great. They offer one that I think might work well here. The stock number is SKU:1963. This has a light striped pattern with the base color showing thru. They have many others as well.

Great looking G Wagon. Nice looking paint finishes and an interesting looking color. -

Great looking Off-Roader. -
AMT ‘53 Ford F-100
espo replied to Smoke Wagon's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
I like the way you captured the look of the way they were. Very basic sturdy work truck with realistic finishes thru out. I would put this in the front of your model display shelf. -
Beautiful looking finishes and the color is a real attention getter. I agree with you on the wheel color. Never understood having a great looking set of wheels on a car and then paint them black so you can't see any of the wheel details.
-
Beautiful looking Mercedes. The pictures almost give it a ting of brown to the color. I have seen this very dark gray color before and have always liked it. The interior with the luggage is nicely done.
-
This is a really clean understated look, if you can call a MoPar Muscal car with all the stripes understated. The white color makes this look really clean, and that's sort of your build style anyway. Beautifully done.

Back when I was a twelve-year-old kid throwing the LA Times every morning there was an older guy, he might have been twenty even, I worked with that had a black '54 with a gold roof and was a Skyliner. That was the first year for the see thru plastic roof on the Ford and the Sun Vally Mercury. Talk about a good-looking car.

Great looking paint jobs and I like the different themes as well.
