bbowser Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 So Harry stole my thunder with his gorgeous 1/16 build, but i'll put mine up anyway . It's the Joan Crawford car, but I went with a black and charcoal gray scheme. My first Tamiya kit and I've got to say I'm impressed. Not a big parts count but everything goes together easily and looks good when finished. I added some BMF trim to the hood and beltline, left off the little chrome do-dads on the front fenders. Comments welcome, thanks for looking!
sjordan2 Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Yours is superb. Bear in mind that Harry's kit is 1/16 while yours is 1/24.
wayne swayze Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 A terrific looking build! These big, classy cars are so beautiful. Very well done!
PowerPlant Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Tamiya? Isn't this the Italeri kit? Looks great either way!
Harry P. Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Cool! The wheels look great, I like that look. But... no doodads? BTW... two different '33 Cadillac Town Cars posted within a day of each other? Is this a cool forum or what?
taaron76 Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 WOW! This thing is super classy and clean. Love it! Tim
charlie8575 Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Tamiya? I never knew they made this. I'll have to look for one. Very nice, Bruce. Charlie Larkin
Dominik Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 [...] BTW... two different '33 Cadillac Town Cars posted within a day of each other? Is this a cool forum or what? same though here. Like your decent Colors! Nice! Perhaps Time, to rebuild my old Caddy...
Eric Macleod Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 I love these old Classics. I have this kit from years ago and felt it was just fantastic. I especially like the brown leather look in the chauffer's compartment. Beautiful model! I agree with Harry-neat to have two '33 Cadillacs to compare! Eric
sjordan2 Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Tamiya? I never knew they made this. I'll have to look for one. Very nice, Bruce. Charlie Larkin Also sold by Italeri.
PowerPlant Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Some of you seem adamant about this being a Tamiya kit... Anyone have a pic of the Tamiya box? Just curious, because I was convinced this was an original Italeri release...
bbowser Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 Tamiya? Isn't this the Italeri kit? Looks great either way! You're absolutely correct, I went back and looked and it is the Italeri kit. My mistake (it still went together good ) Thanks to everyone for all the nice comments, very much appreciated!
Kenny B Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Bruce, Looks very nice and you do have the hood ornament. Harry is missing his I might have a Rubber duck one I can give him. ( just kidding Harry) Both cars are works of art. Ken.
Art Anderson Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Also sold by Italeri. This 1/24 scale kit originated at Italeri. I am completely unaware of any Tamiya release of it? Hmmmmm...... Art
