10thumbs Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Excellent craftsmanship. The model really looks like the real thing, just amazing. The rubber hose with the clamps are a hit. I just don't get tired of viewing the progress. Michael
crazyrichard Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 i will keep saying the same old stuff ....> this is just pure enjoyment to watch , the level of realism and detailing is just insane ...amways impressed and love to see your updates !!! ....
mcvickj Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Wow. The level of detail is amazing. I am just starting to adventure into world of model building with my first model. Could only dream of this level of detail. How long have you been building?

Randy D Posted April 19, 2015 Author Posted April 19, 2015 Hi Folks, I attended my first model car show last week, the Desert Scale Classic. Awesome show and I had a great time. I had my 2 metal projects together on the projects table and thought they looked kinda cool together. Here are a couple of pics.... Will post up some progress pics on the front brakes as soon as I get the pics sorted out. Thanks for looking in ! Randy
Sixx Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 A metal master and his art...freekin awesome man!!!!!!!! :-)

Randy D Posted April 22, 2015 Author Posted April 22, 2015 some brake and clutch fluid reservoirs with piping.... you can barely see them if you follow the hard lines into the 'tub'.. That is all for now, Thanks for looking in!! Randy
Belugawrx Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Hey Randy Brakes look great..very meticulous work there! Well thought out ... And Clean! Cheers
Nitrozilla Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Outstanding. Terrific. Wonderful. Happy Day. Just what I needed. Another modeling diety to worship. Doesn't all of that shrinking to work on it, then growing back to normal size for pictures take a toll on your body? Way Too Impressive my friend.
10thumbs Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Hahaha, at first I read "girly brakes"! They look fantastic. Once again, I'm seeing but can't really believe what I see. Magnificent technique! Michael
jacoballardtattoo Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Utterly amazing! Your not building a model your fabricating a car. This thing looks like you could shrink down to scale jump in and drive away. Amazing work.
mustang1989 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) Man I'll tell you, I get more awed every time I look at the progress on this build. This is awesome attention to detail and the construction is masterfully carried out. Keep this coming Randy. Edited April 23, 2015 by mustang1989
