SEMA Leno-"esque" Camaro Feb 11, 2010 I fell in love with the basic SEMA/Leno twin-turbo Camaro at the 2009 SEMA show. My model is loosely based on the concept, not a true replica. Wheels have a graphite center w/polished rims, tires from Revell Concept Camaro. Paint is Tamiya Pure white. Mostly complete, a few tweaks prior to showing at the Birmingham Classic. photos: 9 Album was created 28 days ago and modified 8 days ago Comments: 1 (1 new) Hits today: 0 Visitors today: 0 view album     Fiat Nuova 500 Feb 1, 2010 Quick review build of Fujimi's Fiat 500 (Nuova 500) kit. Neat model, though in final assembly the ride height & track are comically incorrect. I resorted to surgery by Dremel to get it to look right. Fun to build, only about 10-12 hours of work. Paint is Tamiya AS-19 Medium Blue; a US Navy color. It's a satin color that buffs out beautifully...though I did clearcoat it. photos: 6 Album was created 1 month ago and modified 1 month ago Comments: 2 Hits today: 0 Visitors today: 0 view album   Robert Downie   1962 VW T1 Samba Van Jan 8, 2010 Revell AG's new VW T1 "Samba" van. This is the name given to the Deluxe 23 window van with the canvas top. It's a skill level 5 kit, it is very detailed. The body is multipiece & is a handful to paint the multiple shades of color & assemble. Otherwise assembly is straightforward, and it all goes together remarkably well for a kit with a body in so many separate pieces. It's definitely better looking than the Franklin Mint version. Nice kit...takes a long time to finish, but VW fans should love it. photos: 7 Album was created 2 months ago and modified 2 months ago Comments: 1 Hits today: 0 Visitors today: 0 view album     Flashback; Designed by Committee Jun 18, 2009 Three, count 'em...Three! Three pony cars in one! Introducing the 2010 Flashback. Part Challenger, part Camaro, part Mustang. Four months from idea to execution. Bodywork was fairly straightforward, my biggest hurdles were from repainting it at the end from an accidental splashing of clear lacquer on the nearly-complete model. The basics: body/interior/chassis (no wheelbase changes) from AMT Camaro concept, hood/fascia from AMT Challenger, tail end from a Revell Mustang GT. Wheels are modified Maisto Mustang GT wheels, paint is Testors Grabber Orange w/satin black accents. photos: 21 Album was created 9 months ago and modified 3 months ago Comments: 8 Hits today: 8 Visitors today: 2 view album     Model Cars Jun 29, 2001 Various model cars photos: 1087 Album was created 8 years 9 months ago and modified 2 days ago Comments: 48 Hits today: 2 Visitors today: 2 view album     Tamiya Nissan 370Z Jun 16, 2009 Tamiya's new 370Z built for magazine review.

The Revell kit is nice; very tight fit, it's a league above AMT's curbside Challengers inside and out. AMT's Challenger is decent for a curbside. photos: 7 Album was created 9 months ago and modified 7 months ago No comments Hits today: 1 Visitors today: 1 view album     Citroen DS19 (diecast) Apr 10, 2009 Got this today; 1:24 scale Citroen DS19 diecast model made for the Quattroruote Collection; they are making a huge series of similar 1:24 scale models that are sold with the magazine in Europe. A friend found a UK online store that sells them very reasonably. I've always wanted a 1/24 scale DS19 and there will likely never be a plastic kit of it, and this one is so good I can work on something else.

I wanted to build something quick, I snagged the Revell Boxster from my "inbox"; I had leftover wheels/tires from my RS60 (donated from a Maisto 356), and amazingly the 356 wheels look pretty cool on the Boxster (I can't say the 356 would look good w/Boxster wheels). Since the wheels fit the design, I went totally traditional w/the color scheme to match the first 1948 Porsche 356. This is my favorite kind of build; a cool look in a minimal amount of time. Total build time: about 8 hours. I could stand to find an inside rear view mirror, and to cut/apply some mylar faces to the side view mirrors. These 30 piece kits are a lot of fun! photos: 8 Album was created 2 years 9 months ago and modified 2 years 9 months ago No comments Hits today: 0 Visitors today: 0 view album     Mercedes McLaren SLR Sep 24, 2006 Tamiya's Mercedes SLR built OOB photos: 12 Album was created 3 years 6 months ago and modified 3 years 6 months ago No comments Hits today: 0 Visitors today: 0 view album     Mercedes Benz 540K Reissued Italeri kit built OOB for review.

A very quick build, the model isn't highly detailed and makes for a decent shelf model.

I've finally installed more authentic wheels and brake drums from a Fujimi 356A donor kit; photos 5-8 show the final iteration-much better than with the street version chrome hubcaps (which will look fine on the Fujimi 356).

It's an almost-replica of the car as seen today, but there are a few differences. I still need to add a driver's net and a column-mounted tach, and hopefully can make a few decals for the front fender that aren't included in VRM's otherwise excellent sheet of decals for this car. I also didn't want to attempt to remove the hood vent detail from the kit body (it was in place when original, but not on the restored car). The vents were included on the decal sheet and I decided to use them, the chrome details on the decals are really nice. Emblems are two-layer; first layer colors and second layer is the chrome surround. I'll likely build the '59 Corvette #614 and the '60 that Briggs Cunningham drove, as there are decals to do 4 cars on the one sheet. Fun build, it's the Revell snap kit '63. I spliced a couple parts box side pipes to fit, used the roll bar from a Revell Subaru WRX kit, wheels/tires from the Owens/Corning kit. I took a piece of styrene to make the Wink mirror, adding mylar to the mirror surface. Side mirror is from the parts box. I also used the Owens Corning seats and use Studio 27 seat belts. Fun build! Paint is a decanted mix of Tamiya gloss aluminum and light metallic blue. photos: 7 Album was created 1 year ago and modified 1 year ago No comments Hits today: 0 Visitors today: 0 view album     1962 Willys Jeep Pickup Jul 23, 2006 Resin transkit for Liberty diecast Jeep panel turning it to a pickup truck.

Started many years ago. Details of the fade and 2-tone paint job for the 2nd edition of my airbrush book. This car is renamed "Christina", as it was a nightmare at times. From ghosting of the plastic, to some serious fit issues on a lot of parts, it fought me for years! It still needs some help, especially at the rear bumper. I have no idea how I'm going to fix it w/o some fairly major surgery. The fit of the rear bumper in conjunction w/the poor fit of the taillight housings (which were blended into the body, along w/headlight housings) make for a tilted appearance; but the angle of the bumper and fender seem to make me think it's supposed to be installed at this odd angle. Long regarded as one of AMT's best-detailed kits, I really didn't enjoy putting it together when so many parts didn't fit well. photos: 5 Album was created 2 years 6 months ago and modified 2 years 6 months ago Comments: 1 Hits today: 1 Visitors today: 1 view album     2006 Dodge Charger Daytona Jul 3, 2007 Testors/Lincoln Mint 2006 Dodge Charger Daytona kit photos: 8 Album was created 2 years 8 months ago and modified 2 years 8 months ago No comments Hits today: 1 Visitors today: 1 view album     2006 Corvette Z06 Jun 29, 2006 Revell Corvette Z06 w/Ferrari F430 rims photos: 11 Album was created 3 years 9 months ago and modified 3 years 8 months ago No comments Hits today: 1 Visitors today: 1 view album     Ferrari Superamerica May 14, 2007 Photos of Revell's Ferrari Superamerica photos: 11 Album was created 2 years 10 months ago and modified 2 years 10 months ago No comments Hits today: 0 Visitors today: 0 view album     Decanting Spray Paint Mar 22, 2007 Here's a simple, inexpensive, and relatively clean method to decant spray paint for airbrush use. photos: 5 Album was created 3 years ago and modified 3 years ago No comments Hits today: 1 Visitors today: 1 view album     Chrome Test Oct 29, 2006 Tests of Alclad II Chrome vs. Spaz Stix Mirror Chrome vs. Alsa's "Killer Chrome" photos: 6 Album was created 3 years 4 months ago and modified 3 years 4 months ago No comments Hits today: 6 Visitors today: 3 view album     Bugatti Royale Victoria by Weinberger Nov 3, 2008 Lindberg's Bugatti Royale Victoria by Weinberger.

Built during our annual LeMans palooza, started with the body in finished primer at the start of the race, and was finished (mostly) by about 4:30 AM. I did some post-race upgrades; the upper/lower body didn't fit particularly well, in the process of heating the resin I melted the windscreen, so I had to make a new windscreen. I also added some decal rivets behind the driver (from a bike model that I'll be paint-detailing the rivets). I also added some tape/foil hood straps, there weren't any in the kit though I suspect it should have had them as they are prominent on the kit boxart. This is a very simple kit; only 32 parts.
