Yahshu Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Tell the truth now John, that's a real car. That is one fantastic model, wish i could get my Alclad to come up that good.
geetee66 Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 You're a living legend, John. I have often found inspiration from looking at your work. Your skills are the level to which I aspire. This car cooler than a Bose-Einstein condensate! Your photography is excellent, too. It does your work real justice. Now I really must learn how to use an airbrush!
jonathanwziel Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Wow, I love the attention to detail. Just incredible.
doomcrew Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 wow, thats awesome john! does that come with a pair of raybans? steve
gluebomb Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 At first I thought it was the pics of the actual car then realized it wasn't. Everything you build has me in awe, and I study it. I hope one day I can build like that. Fantastic
sbk Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Very nice work! That's the best use of Alcad that I've seen in a long time. I've thought about using urethane as the basecoat because of the slower drying time (similar to emnamel in a way), but haven't tried it yet. You don't polish the urethane after you shoot it, the gloss is from straight out the airbrush, right?

LAone Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Simply amazing John. Always look forward to your next project.
Dyno Davo Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Amazing build John, you are pushing the envelope with Alclad mate. Pics look awesome in the sunlight. detailing is superb as usual. Well done mate.
streetmachine11 Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 john this one is fantastic. i constantly watch your builds because there inspiring and i always learn something from them. but i got a long way to go on my alclaid skills lol jason
Bernard Kron Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 I was looking forward to the completion on this one since I knew it was right in your sweet spot and would totally rock - which it most definitely has!!!! I'm diggin' all the technical questions in the responses. It's clear that it's not just a cliché when we say you are an inspiration to many of us, it's the real world truth. Keep on pushin' us, John...
vaughn Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 My...My...My !!!!! As I have said before...you must have a vision and then become that vision once you start the build !! One question...those bolts on the inside....are they just oversize bolts to show up better or are they to scale ? Or does it matter ? Amazing work John.

Terry.......the reference pictures I went by.......show that size bolt.......they do look out of scale to me as well in the pictures......but,in person they look ok to me......thanks.
DanielG Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Just looked at the chassis shots, NOW I am impressed!
Renegade Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Never saw paint like this. Detail is great. Awesome job. Two thumbs up.
Peter Lombardo Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 What a surprise, another beautiful build from your talented hands..... looks great with the aluminum finish. Super!
dougp Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 I have to agree with everyone else's comments with my two cents worth... Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
