Re: McLaren MP4/8 - Tamiya -1/20

Looks awesome with the rains. Super clean build and the color laid down so much nicer than decals. 8)

Re: Auto Union Type D 1/32 scale

Hey guys, thanks for all the replies. I was afraid to put it together as I wasn't sure what the silver would look like after I handled it. I think the photos are flattering, certainly not the harsh truth of the camera's eye on this one. I never thought that Matchbox/Lesney would have created such a ...

Re: Auto Union Type D 1/32 scale

I used Testors "chrome" paint. It set up for, what, maybe 10 years or so....nonetheless it was spotless, until my latex gloves tarnished part of it....the photos don't show all the sins that I easily recognize, lol. I am in West Bloomfield. Time to hit the bed so that I can make it in to w...

Auto Union Type D 1/32 scale

Hello all. I began this kit 15 years ago or so, and decided now its time to finish it. Not my favorite subject, however, during research I learned an awful lot about this car, and can now appreciate the engineering and design much more than I ever did before. Building models is an EDUCATIONAL experi...

Re: Toyota Celica Twin Cam Turbo Gr.B - 1984 Portugal Rally

Very Nice Detail! I really appreciate how the wheels have a 1:1 scale look and the depth is portrayed very well. It makes the model. How did you do this? I find this the biggest differentiator in how rally car models look with the white wheels. Is this a curbside kit? I see that you have some plumbi...

Re: Danny's PC-17 1988

Wow, I really like that first picture with the dark background....makes the gold realistic. I have this kit and didn't have faith that I could create a deep gold finish....maybe I should try so I have a companion to the Mears model on the shelf....
