Some of my previous builds - kensar

[kensar]

To round out my intro, I am posting a few of my previous builds.

Abarth Carrera - resin body with Fujimi chassis

1/12 MG Models Plus Ferrari 375 MM, 1954 LeMans winner.  This model took 1st place in the large scale class at the 2019 IPMS National Convention.  Lots of scratchbuilt parts, including the wire wheels.

1971 Porsche LeMans team in 1/24 scale.  Courtesy of Fisher Models, LeMans Miniatures, and Fujimi.

Fictitious Porsche 910 spyder.  Based on 1/12 Tamiya kit.  Body modified and lots of scratchbuilt innards.

 

One of my favorite models, a Jaguar XJR-5.  Can't remember if it's from LeMans Miniatures or Profil24.

Porsche 935 gaggle.  Early and late 1976 version, 935 Baby, and 1977 works version.

And lastly for now, a Tamiya 1/12 Williams FW14B, mostly OOB.

Thanks for looking in.  Hope you like the pictures.

Nice stuff Ken.

I just pinched an UMi  XJR5 off evilbay, I'm working on a 935 lineup myself.

Welcome.

Beautiful work, all of 'em.  

[Pierre Rivard]

That is seriously good model building. Your club application is approved!

Excellent models, Ken - all of them. My favorites have to be the Martini Porsches from 1971 and the Abarth Carrera. The big 1/12 Ferrari is museum quality.

[PappyD340]

[SpikeSchumacher]

I love the wear spots on the floor beneath the foot pedals on the Ferrari.  Nice touch.

[Yeah Nah]

Amazing quality Ken! That Ferrari 375 was a well deserved 1st place getter mate.

[drodg]

I saw these only now. Fantastic work and models, all of them!

[Rich Chernosky]

That is a very impressive collection.  I wouldn't hesitate to add any one of them to my collection. (except the Jag...just did one...lol)  I have followed some of your work and it is inspiring.  This was a great post and thank you for the comment on mine. 

[kensar]

Thanks for the comments, Tommy and Rich.

Since this thread has come up to the top again, I'll add a few more builds.

Tamiya and Fujimi Alfas:

A lot of unused race car numbers were collecting in my decal box, so - 'art car'

Porsche 550 Carrera Panamericana

Revell Porsche 914 converted into a race car.

Gunze Daytona Cobra

Tamiya Porsche Carrera GT converted into a 'targa' model - the glass top coupe.  The clear top extends across the entire top.

I hope you enjoyed the new additions.  I added some of the more interesting subjects I have done over the last 30 years.

Thanks for looking in!

Ken

[Rich Chernosky]

You are quite welcome  Ken.  More of your handiwork, all of them very clever.

[Dragline]

Lovely stable of great cars. You'll fit in nicely with work like this.
