A Flock of Midgets

[Doctordarryl]

The Revell midget kits are fantastic kits. They are very well engineered and offer an opportunity to fill a void for modelers. I started workning on midget decals before Revell announced they were making the V8 60 and Offy midget kits in 1/25th scale. I was going to use the old Etzel Speed Classics curbside midget kits to build a fleet of midgets. Next to drag cars (and Willys gassers in particular) midgets are my close second love. I saw many of these cars run at tracks my father took me to when I was a child.

Scale Auto Detail midget decals have been reviewed in Model Cars Magazine. I am quite satisfied with how they have been selling, now being touted as the "World's Best Selling Midget Decals".

Here are my builds (which have never been posted here). I have built 10 midgets and have several more under the build bench. I have produced 19 different midget decal sets and have several more in planning.

Enjoy.

Very nice. Those are very cool little cars. Built one, thinking of doing another.

[Ace-Garageguy]

A flock of beautiful builds. Very VERY nice.

Very cool Darryl. Great job on them all. What do you use for those bases?

Very cool Darryl. Great job on them all. What do you use for those bases?

Thanks for the kind words.

The bases are from Trumpter and I print a checker board pattern on one of my printers. A base with a checker board and a figure are sort of my trademark.

I like your use of figures, even though they are 'generic' they give a good sense of scale.

[Dr. Cranky]

Excellent collection. Thank you for sharing.

i built one but i couldnt wait to do a color blend i taped it off before it was done drying and ruined the finish.

Those are nice, look great...

[Lunajammer]

You sure do a good job on the midgets. It's obvious you are passionate about them. As a collection it makes for a nice tribute.

[Chuck Most]

I have yet to build one of these- I keep raiding them for parts! Very nice job on them all.

[Helix]

Was unsure if I was going to buy one of these kits, but after looking at your fine examples, I think I will purchase a couple

[ShawnS]

I love old race cars of any type and those are fabulous. Your passion for them really shows through in the build quality and the way each are individually displayed. Great work Darryl.

[Jantrix]

Hmm. I thought a group of midgets was called a guild.

WOnderful builds though.

Those Are Really cool.. Red

[Gluhead]

Very cool. I never noticed there was an Offy version. Now I need a couple.

[lanesteele240]

Im completly let down. Wrong kind of midgets

[rmvw guy]

I only see one Ford which is my fav. Nice job on all the rest also. The little man adds to the presentation, I love it! It's hard to believe how small these models are at first glance.
