Great looking model.

I cant help with how to make them but ebay normally has some photo reduced sheets of product that may be useful for you.

I love the AWB kits and have built many over the years. I think I still have a couple around here. Sure they are simple kits and not all that well detailed but I think when they are done they look pretty good.

Thanks men. There is no scale indicated on the box but it is pretty small, only about 7 inches or so. As for the interior the original did not have one. This version does have one from a different company. It is just punch out card stock that is better than nothing I guess but you can't really see inside anyway. I did install it nevertheless. Having a bit of trouble with the decals right now .

Fantastic looking model.

Looks good ! You have me wanting to pick up another one of these kits.

Thanks Bob.

I agree, coming along nicely !

Same to you !!

So it looks like anything but a space ship ? : )

Thanks Bill. It does kind of resemble a turtle now that you mention it. : )

Great looking models !

This is now in the diorama section.

That sir is a knockout !

The base is pretty much done so I did a quick mock up. I had to take some liberties as this was Land of the Giants but was restricted as to how big the surroundings could be by the size of the base.

Thanks birthday boy. I was just in need of a break from cars and trucks for awhile.

I bought this kit just something different to do. When I started it I felt just putting it on the plastic stand would be lame. So....... I decided it needed to be part of a small diorama. Here then are photos of the start of it. No pics yet of the space ship as it is drying in the garage. I started with a base from Hobby Lobby and it was too large so I cut it in half. I then stained and cleared it. Next I mixed up some Celuclay and applied it to the base as the ground work. It has been given a base coat of dark brown. It will be dry brushed with a lighter color and them some grass and rocks will be added. I also made a wall from balsa wood for the back but forgot to take a pic of it. It was made from some thick balsa and then covered with spackling and painted. The tree stumps were carved from more balsa wood and then painted.

Gives you a good excuse to watch cartoon's, huh Carl ? : )

Sounds like a keeper. Good luck and best wishes for a happy life. Oh, and were all invited to the wedding, right ? : )

Pretty sweet !

I like that but not sure about the big 4.

I read somewhere a while ago that the Scions were rebadged Dihatsu's. Anyone know if that is true or not ?

Dave, don't forget that we are all here for you if you need to talk. Some great folks on this site.

I say go for it. That will be so cool.

How about that Nash Rambler song. Can't recall the name. Beep, beep, beep , beep his horn went beep, beep, beep.
