Kenny B Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 I'm new to this site, what a lot of nice builds out there. I thought that I should show a few of my 1/12 scale 69 Camaro Z/28 that I built. This took me about 230 hours and almost a year to build. Kenny B.
Mauricio Meyer Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 O.M.G. It's just like a real car! Awesome job
Rusty Sierra Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 gorgeous model... paint looks flawless.
Helix Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Had to look twice, thought it was real, that is one nasty Camaro, awesome work Ken
TooOld Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) Gorgeous ! Right down to the Houndstooth upholstery ! Absolutely gorgeous ! Tha Camaro emblem in the 6th photo looks so real , how did you do that ? And the telescoping antenna ! Edited November 30, 2012 by TooOld
PistonDog Posted December 1, 2012 Posted December 1, 2012 This is beautiful and your photography skills aren't slacking either. i LOVE the interior. How did you do the seat patterns?
Hawk312 Posted December 1, 2012 Posted December 1, 2012 Awesome work! And incredible detail. That looks amazing! I bet masking those silver stripes was fun. Where did you find the houndstooth for the seats?
Dragline Posted December 1, 2012 Posted December 1, 2012 SSSSSSSSSSSMOKIN................................... I have one in the wings. Black was an option. Now it's a MUST!!! Bob
Harry P. Posted December 1, 2012 Posted December 1, 2012 Wow! That is just spectacular in every way, right down to the key in the ignition. You have some talent there, buddy!
camarofreak82_427 Posted December 1, 2012 Posted December 1, 2012 im speachless. one of the most beautiful models i have ever saw!
Custom Mike Posted December 1, 2012 Posted December 1, 2012 Kenny, this is absolutely stunning, the last picture of the interior looks like you're looking into the real car! I have one of these too, and I've gotta know, how did you get the steering wheel to look so perfectly accurate, and where did you get the houndstooth decals/inlays/whatever you used for the seats?
Kenny B Posted December 1, 2012 Author Posted December 1, 2012 Wow, Thanks to everyone for your wonderful comments your making my head swell. It was fun to build, I really took my time and research to make sure it was as close as possible. I didn't want to look at it after and say I should have did this or that.(if you know what I mean) The hounds tooth interior wasn't hard at all. Google, hounds tooth and you will get the pattern. Cut and paste it to any office program ,copy and paste a total of 6 of them put them in a rectangle shape and increase or decrease the size to fit the scale you are doing. The antenna is telescoping and made from medical supplies. The emblems are photo etched from MCG (I think it was). Or one more thing I forgot to tell you. I have two of them.... Kenny B
Hawk312 Posted December 2, 2012 Posted December 2, 2012 Wow! Very nice! You have any more pics of that orange one? It looks spectacular!
sjordan2 Posted December 2, 2012 Posted December 2, 2012 Wow! Very nice! You have any more pics of that orange one? It looks spectacular! If this man likes it - David Eicherly, a master of these kits - then you know it's good. Just superb in every way.
Kenny B Posted December 2, 2012 Author Posted December 2, 2012 Thanks everyone. The hugger orange one was the first one that I built out of the two of them. I would like to redo it with hounds tooth and photo etched emblems as well. That means repainting....maybe later. Thanks again. Kenny B.
AZ Boy Posted December 2, 2012 Posted December 2, 2012 WOW! Both are are outstanding Kenny! Making a "clean" build is that much more difficult when dealing with 1/12th scale models, and yours are flawless in that area. Beautiful work, Sir!
A.R.C. Posted December 2, 2012 Posted December 2, 2012 Wow!! In the right setting you could fool a lot of people into thinking thats a real Z. Beautiful finish!
Roadracer Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 Fantastic work Kenny......On both! They are very beautiful works of art! And I love the big scale too! WOW!
