Hawk312 Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Not nearly as many as I would have like to have finished mostly because life got in the way, but also because of the L88 build which has taken nearly all year so far. Here is what I have so far. Only three total completions this year... And here is what I have so far on the 1/12 L88. I hope to have it finished next week assuming parts make it here from the platers:
Daddyfink Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Very cool stuff! Looking forward to seeing the Vette done!
model-collector Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Your work is amazing every time...that mustang is just beautiful.
kilrathy10 Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 That Stang is amazing.....Awesome job.....What scale is it???
rmvw guy Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 This is some nice work!! As I scrolled down thinking of comments on each build they got better and better in my head. Now with the Vette fresh in my mind I am blown away. That interior looks so real! And the engine, wow! better than any Corvette I have ever built for sure. Nice work and great year with that kind of Quality.
peekay Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 All spectacular - and that red Corvette interior is just stunning!
TooOld Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Very beautiful models ! Three is a very good number for you !
Kennyboy Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 As usual David, your builds are just mindblowing!! The level of detail and craftsmanship are just spectacular!!
Hawk312 Posted December 27, 2014 Author Posted December 27, 2014 Thanks everyone!That Stang is amazing.....Awesome job.....What scale is it???It is the Revell 1/25 GT350H kit from memory.
Monty Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Not nearly as many as I would have like to have finished mostly because life got in the way, but also because of the L88 build which has taken nearly all year so far. Here is what I have so far. Only three total completions this year... I'll take quality over quantity any day of the year. These are some spectacular builds! Also, as a 'Vette freak, I wanted to commend you on getting the chassis colors right. Most people aren't aware that the bottom of the interior section was raw, unpainted fiberglass, even though there are tons of reference pics out there. One of our members (Custom Mike) even posted pics of his 1:1 '67 after restoration, and it's a virtual bonanza for those who want to get suspension component and chassis details correct. Congratulations again on each of these builds. Can't wait to see what you create in 2015.

Congratulations again on each of these builds. Can't wait to see what you create in 2015. Thanks Monty! I have the help of several 1:1 owners who help me with originality etc. One of them is giving me a hard time because he doesn`t like the shade of the tie-rod ends. :D But, as best I can tell from pictures of the real car, it is close. I`m not sure I`ll undertake another one of these without the sidepipes. The kit only comes with the parts for the sidepipes, so everything from the exhaust manifolds to the tailpipe ends had to be fabricated. It was fun trying to bend everything and have everything line up perfectly and mate up with the tailpipe ends that must go through the center of the outlet in the body. And those bends right over the rear leaf springs are tighter and more complicated then they look.
promoman Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 The Mustang is very nice. The detail on the Corvette interior is amazing.
