Revell 1930 Ford Model A

[Steve H]

Hi Martin! Your builds, and ability to capture realism with your craftsmanship and magical photos is nothing short of spectacular. Having seen this recently in person, it still somehow looks even better here. Hope to see you at my place in June sir. Please bring this build so I can have another look.

Cheers, Steve

Very sharp build.  I also mistook it for a real car.

what's your secret man? any WIP photos? well done in a fantastic sorta way...

Whenever I see your work on Instagram, I'm overwhelmed. After 60 years of building model cars, I feel like I'm 5 years old, pouring glue and finger prints all over my first kit! You are a great inspiration!

You should really think about doing some youtube videos to help us mere mortal modelers!

I tried - I filmed the whole build of my Karmann Ghia but the shooting and editing turned into such a chore that I stopped.

spurt nice Rod!

[NOBLNG]

Absolutely beautiful!?

[Intmd8r]

Love it!

[Ace-Garageguy]

Holy moly. That thing is beautiful.

I had to go back and look more carefully to overcome my initial thought it was a real car...and I build real cars for a living.

Man oh man, that is one sweet build.  

[Luis Ayala]

Spectacular work!!! 

Congrats!!!

[TooOld]

Okay . . . I have no words other than WOW !  You must have purposely made the buckle to prove that this is a model , even that is very hard to pick out . 

[Kenmojr]

Killer rod!!!

[Bullybeef]

As others have already stated Wow! I’d love to see the chassis to see how you’ve achieved the stance. 

[ReduitRetro]

HOLY COW! This has got to be one of the coolest and cleanest builds I've ever seen on here. NICE JOB!

[Limeyglue]

That is outstanding! Fantastic build  

[KWT]

WOW... I missed this somehow. Very nicely done

[exesivefire]

Simply stunning! 

[STU111]

I thought the photos were of the real hot rod that was the inspiration, so I kept scrolling through looking for the model. Surprise! That was the model.
That’s so good, l reckon there’s a scale ignition key in the dash. ??

 

[58 Impala]

Wow, amazing build.

[mrm]

This is definitely one of the best Model A hot rod models I have ever seen. Simply stunning!

An other Fabolus build! Such great quality on your prints. What settings and Resin do you run?

I use the standard Elegoo Grey Resin and print everything at 0.01mm layer height. Takes a lot longer but the reduction in visible layer lines is worth it to me.

What  a pleasant surprise when one has seen many excellent hot rod models and then this, your building skills and presentation are wonderful to see. All the positive comments are well deserved, quite the model !

[ATHU]

Simply stunning!!
