Let's see your small scale...

[blunc]

Post your builds that are smaller than 1/25 (I know there are some out there, I have pictures)

(This will be a little "thread necro" of the old Make it Small thread.

71 Trans Am

 

Vintage kit that is getting released again

 

the kit motor requires a little rework to make it look like a pontiac engine

Doors opened and hinged

door openings need a little rework, wheels/tires are snowflakes from a '79 TA snap kit, the kit honeycomb wheels looked very undersized to me.

 

hand sewn leather seats

nice, I think I got an ICM kit to do a little street rod work on, never discount the military kits, great source for kitbashing.

Reposting some photos I have shown here in the past.

Few Gunze Sangyo 1:32 kits of the '50s and '60s cars.

 

Going smaller, here are couple of 1:43 models. Monogram Ultimates 289 Cobra.

VW Beetle (rebuilt diecast kit from Testors).

Going even smaller, here is a '56 Ford Crown Vic in H0 (1:87) scale.

Smallest ones I built (so far) are N scale (1:160).  FedEx Dodge Sprinter.

Micron Art photoetched brass kit of a '15 Ford Model T

Another Micron Art brass kit of a '14 Knox Fire Engine.

Resin-cast (from a scratch-built master) golf carts (for my friend's layout golf course - I made several)

Also resin cast from a scratch-built master dodgem (bumper) cars.

Small scale models rule!!

Approx 1:250 Mack truck from my old 2013 thread on it.

[Modlbldr]

Nice work on these, Guys!

I have this to build someday soon.

This is the smallest I've done so far:

 

 

 

At the time I found it a bit of a challenge, but since then I've started wearing varifocals.....

[vamach1]

Here’s four kits plus a 1/144 red GT500 “diecast”.  The Gulf GT40 looks a tad bigger than 1/87 but the rest are HO scale.

[bh1701]

Some 1/160th scale vehicles I built for my N Gauge train layout.

The PT Cruiser is a resin kit. All of the others are 3-D Printed Plastic kits.  All were hand painted.

Thanks for looking!

What a cool thread Mike!!! Lots of cool stuff in here. That 1/250 scale rig takes the frickin' cake for me. WOW!!! 

 

 

[mustang1989]

Built this a few years back and had a BLAST with it. In 1/35th scale there's not a whole lot that's NOT covered in the AM world.

 

 

[cobraman]

I had more than I thought .

I was just bidding on one of these but got sniped while I was away from my computer, now I gotta keep looking for one that isn't crazy priced.

It's an amazing kit - the windows have their frames beautifully chromed which I've never seen elsewhere.
