Simple, find or take a single photo of any build of yours, and post it!

I'd post first, but it seemed kinda rude seing that i started the topic.. :lol::lol:

I'll give it a shot. One of my favorite builds and pics, my '67 Mustang with a 390 out of the '67 Galaxie. It also has MRC Keystones wrapped by Firestone Wide Ovals.

Tough question man but I think I would go w/ my 61 Impala, something about the lines of that car is somewhat erotic!!! ;):unsure:

I consider this model to be my most photogenic so I guess that makes this my favorite photo;

I CAN'T!

That's like choosing between your kids. ;)

I'm into photography as well, and the 2 hobbies are perfect for each other. So I picked about 10 and randomly picked 1:

Like Izzy, I have the same dilemma--------trying to choose between several. :unsure:

So I picked this one.................

The Jag D-Type when it's all polished and prettied up can't be beat for showing reflections off that curvy body! Pay no attention to the partially open hood!............Yes it does close the whole way! ;)

It wasnt really my build, the model was just given to me. But I did take pictures of it and I think it is one of my better ones. Hopefully once I get everything straightened out in my work area/garage It will be alot better.

Though this is not mine, I'd have to pick this one as a GREAT photo of a very well done model.

For me it's not just the model, but also the background that sets the tone and separates the type of model that you look at in a casual, passing glance from what you want to study and admire. For me, this photo from Ismael captures that essence completely. Not only is the model an excellent display of craftsmanship but it's set in a perfect background to accent what the car is all about...racing heritage. If he had weathered it, then it would be better suited in a pit or a trackside scene, but with it's clean, "retired from racing" appearance, this background is perfect. It reminds me of a high class display that you'd see at Harrah's Auto Museum.

Bravo, Ismael, bravo!!

I do all my pictures the same way...... black background with light from above. This is my favorite build. Although I'm a fan of the 1968 to 1970 "B" bodies this 1967 GTX is still my fav... I think it's a combination of the blue and white color combo and the HEMI 4 speed! Non vinyl (painted roof) white wall tires and factory stripes. Hope you enjoy.....

Like others have said, it's hard to pick just one favorite....this one was, however, very high on my list:

Ever since I put together the ceramic tile/deck railing/tripod & macro setting combo, I've taken much better pics of my models.

That's awesome, and for all the reason you said. Probably the best I have seen yet.
