Hi Claude

Been stashing resin kits and other hard to find kits for many years, like many others have. I'm a "DINASAUR in the hobby

and somehow saw this day coming when things would begin to disappear, so I started a stash for the future.

Boy has that paid off.  I didn't see this many changes coming, but probably like you, I put away what I liked. No regrets 

on what I didn't buy. I have more than enough to enjoy just like you probably do to.

Hi David!

I, too, have way more kits that I will likely build until I'm too old to do it right... But I try to justify myself by telling my wife: "since I do mostly mash-ups, divide the number of kits you see by two... That would be more representative of the future outcome from my stash". Somehow, so far, it keeps her calm...

Super nice work! Great color choice and stance!

Beautiful! I agree - your modifications are all that’s needed.

That is one sweet Caddy.  I really dig the body color and stance.

Beeeeautiful Caddy !  The '61 and also the '62 were so much better looking than the '59 .

@TooOld

Your so ight. I like the '59 for it's sheer, in your face, gargantuousness!!

But the '61 and '62 have what I like to call "styling panache".

There are so many different elegant styling que's that keep your eye's moving around the car, to see all the genius

that was cleverly used to bring such a beautiful piece of art to it's final stages.

Beautiful Cadillac!  One thing wrong, it’s not in my model case LoL…

[David G.]

Beautifully Done!

Paint, stance, assembly and trim all look fantastic.

Just wow. Very impressive build, for many reasons - subject, colour, stance, execution. You nailed it.

Who made this? The modelhouse version did not have the fender badge and trim. It also has the chevrolet/ pontiac rear window. Cadillac an buick electra had a special rear backlight.  Or did modelhouse revise the  design at some point? However its an amazing job.

I don’t think that I will ever come close to your ability but you have inspired me to keep trying!?

Holy smokes, This looks sexy. Very well done. I love it.
