  1. Nice build!
  2. That’s a really good looking custom! Everything seems to work with each other. Great craftsmanship from your part as well making the build look easy!
  3. Great build!
  4. Nice builds! Looks good
  5. I drove +600km one way to bring the Chevy back home. But it had deteriorated way more than the seller told me, the interior was shot and the body was rusted as well as frame floor and firewall. So I decided that I would not bring it back home with me. Well it might be an other build down the line.
  6. Looking good! i use the normal resin al the time and i do aslo use the LP Ruber black and that looks good. The Vallejo model Air tire black is more gray.. not for any one was asking but hey By the way! Epic work on the working pedals. O and all the other thousand things!
  7. Did some correction done to my Tirpitz build. The bow shape in the kit is the same as Bismarck but Tirpitz had a more straight edge than its brother. So I took some two part putty to roughly lay out the shape.
  8. Nice with a printer that can print white! Looking good as always!

  14. That would be epic, and I belive many folowing the sport would encorage it. And if we compare where alot of the electricity (not regen of course) comes from, a good fuel would still be better. But then again should we grow plats for food or for fuel? Debates debates...
  15. Thanks allot everyone for your kind words! And I also hope the reissue this one. I do have a new kit as well that will be built some time that I got for original retail price since my lhs had missed to list it on their websites and was forgotten I their shelf’s. here is a photo of the car in its dedicated Aston Martin display with memorabilia from my practical training there in 2006.
  16. Nice work! I can agree that the kit have its shortcomings, I have a build going on in WIP and group builds. I had a problem when installing the chassi with interior that the body did not seat as it should. I actually boxed my build for a while thanks to the issues.
  17. I got this kit in a trade with s fellow member here on the board, it was built and some parts missing i took it mostly apart and repainted some parts as well as the body. Interior was painted in a flat gray so I only shot semi gloss clear and detailed it. The seats was replaced with a set of buckets that got a Prodrive decal and belts from “Kits world” and since I only had one set I improvised and extended the optional shoulder belts with Tamiya 3mm tape that I painted with Ohuhu acrylic markers of a similar color. And I made the passenger lap belts in the same way with some PE buckels. I did also make my own seat brackets out of some old floppy discs. And I might have put the seats a bit high. Steering wheel is replaced with a spare o deep wheel. Most decals was shot or missing so I coppied my new set with the printer(bad resolution I believe) and aded some others and printed new ones. Chrome emblems on the engine are from a Mercedes metal transfer I bought. wheels and tires are my own creation that I made to have a ofsett so they would lick the wheel well edge. otherwise quite out of the box. took two more in the afternoon sun.
  18. Nice work on the vette! Chassi looks great. If you want to go the next step on your brakes paint the brake bad black/grayish.
  19. Got the brakes and wheels on. And then I noticed that I had to do some thing about the chrome grill. So I stripped it and painted it the same color as the wheels, which is Vallejo metal color Jet Exhaust.
  20. Welcome to the board! I do build 1/16 but i have a Vette and a C10 and no fords in my lineup ;D Hope you find what you look for.
  21. Welcome from a fellow scandinavian!
