  1. Great year and beautiful builds as usual Roger ! The Chevy wagon and Impala convertible are my favorites .
  2. That looks pretty darned good for being Chrome stuff , gives us all a little hope ! I've practiced on an old body and ran into the same issues you describe but haven't gotten results as good as yours yet . I do agree that it takes much more pressure to cut cleanly and eliminate the tearing issue , which in turn dulls the blade very quickly . If that's what it takes I'll just stock up on blades and give it a try on my next project .
  3. Cool color ! Great looking wagon Jim !
  4. Great set of Mustangs ! The Metallic Green '70 (?) looks really nice , what paint is it ?
  5. The Spirit Of St Louis and the tanks all look fantastic , very nicely done !
  6. I don't see anything to nit-pick about on these two , beautiful work Wayne !
  7. Sharp looking trucks Gerald ! Really like the old school custom grille on the '53 .

    My 2021

    All four are beautiful work Randy , I really like the Camaro ! And surprising to me the Subaru is pretty cool looking , may have to get one .
  9. Now that's a sharp looking truck , well done !
  10. Great little plane and a job well done ! I've built a couple Metal Earth planes and they can be tricky but produce nice display pieces when finished .
  11. Wow that's the nicest one I've ever seen built , beautifully done !! The doubled decals really do make a difference !
  12. Absolutely gorgeous ! Beautiful paint and trim work , and the interior looks awesome too ! Pro Touring isn't my thing but I'm a '60 Chevy guy (owned three) and I would love to have one like this .
  13. Those A-Pillar trim pieces are an excellent addition , well done ! This is really coming together and may be one of your nicest yet , can't really pick 'cause I like them all ! I'm going to go back through this thread to see how you did those headlight buckets , very nice .
  14. Great looking Henry J Gasser ! With so many people not liking this kit there should be plenty of them for the rest of us !
  15. Very nicely done ! The changes you've made all look great !
  16. I was starting to think the same thing , the inserts have no ejection marks and the tire material seems identical for all four of them . Guess I was lucky to get this set . Thanks Mark !
  17. Here's some better photos of the tires . I did look at Modelhaus Tires and the fronts are similar to their #100 tire but again the ribs are different . Forget about the Cragars , I'm not concerned about them right now .
  18. Found a review on Youtube and they're similar but have no markings and no ribs on the fronts , also the inserts are completely different . Thanks for the suggestion .
  19. Those are a couple of very well built Bugs , really like the Off-Road one ! And probably the most realistic photography I've ever seen ! Any tips for us laymen ?
  20. Your 57's always look soooo nice and this one is no exception , beautiful colors !
  21. Great year , I love the 60's American cars !
  22. Beautiful interior Joe , your hard work is really paying off !
  23. Nicest looking engine you've done yet , and you definitely have making those wire harnesses figured out . Excellent work Steve ! I know it's a small detail but I think the weighted tires add a lot more realism to the finished look .
  24. Looks like you had a great year , congrats !
  25. Wow that's blue ! Absolutely gorgeous coupe , well done !
