  1. You did very well getting all that for just $20. Here in the UK you'd be talking £20 per box!

    BMW 2002tii

    Superb build. We had a lot of these on the roads in the day and still have a big following at classic car race events and BMW club meetings too.
  3. Yes try that out when you build up something similar, we all have different ideas, but need to try them out.
  4. OK but just go onto YouTube as I do and ask what you want to see built and you'll be surprised what comes up! I save all manner of plastic things I see in normal day to day living and think of what I can use things for. Get an old kit and some spares you've saved and see what you can create. It took me a while to try a few things and initially got measurements wrong for example but I persevered and am still learning at 69! The Safari windows don't have any instructions so I went onto YouTube to see how they fit the real ones, that sorted it!
  5. Cheers Carl.
  6. Yes a lot of head scratching!
  7. Dan, Revell do a T3 Camper kit, you just need to cut part of the back off!
  8. Yes I can imagine how heavy the steering was although most of the weight was at the back!
  9. Thanks Dan for the pics. We have lot's of those of all types in the UK and nearly all diesels.
  10. Thanks Jim, although most of Scale Productions lineup is resin cast, the roof rack and a few other things are in plastic and possibly done on a 3D printer.
  11. Thanks Dan. Have you any photo's of your 1:1 Doka?
  12. This is just a test of more homebrewed decals I've printed. I find/see various patterns designs across the internet and copy a few at a time.This measures the right amount of gloss clear that I've laid up onto the decal paper after printing from my PC. They look good after a coat of gloss clear on the bodyshell after laying up, to keep them from drying out and peeling off. It also saves buying aftermarket decals at £16 or per sheet.
  13. Thanks Steve.
  14. Thanks David, yes I don't really like standard things. With the body shell there are shortened resin side boards and a resin rear bench seat.
  15. Thanks Mike. I have seen lot's of these here in the UK but always in commercial use, so I thought 'how about one for pleasure and leisure'!
  16. Resin Transkit Double Cab VW Pick-Up, plus Roof Rack, PE Safari Windows, Seats, Fujimi Mountain Bikes, Pegasus Centreline Rims, Homemade Surfboards with homemade decals.
  17. Thanks guys.
  18. Thanks Steve & Dann. Yes Dann I needed to get the dirt/sand in there somehow and the bikes are perfect!
  19. Cheers Chris, resin plus photo etch plus plastic plus coffee sticks a near disaster, but not as the case may be! And a HUGE sigh of relief!
  20. Thanks Mike, I copied the chassis with evergreen plasticard, and used very few parts so that I can still use them on the single cab build.
  21. Someones going to get a telling off! I told 'em to clean their mucky bikes before putting them in the back of there!
  22. And you get.................... And fully loaded......................... with Michelin Tyre Decals!
