iModeler Automotive

Scale models of cars, trucks, motorcycles, machinery.

Tamiya, Kawasaki KZ1300 B Touring bike, 1/6th scale.

I built the sister bike about a year ago and have been watching this one, Finally found one that had decency tires, most had deteriorated tires in the kit. I was excited to have it did a perfect (for me) paint job on it using Tamiya [...]

1965 Ford Mustang

Just completed today. Revell 1/24 1965 Ford Mustang 2x2 Flashback (whatever that means lol). Built for a very dear friend and band mate, because he loves cars. I don't do cars so am a novice but I learned alot from doing this and watching [...]

Ford GT40 - 1968 Le Mans winner

This is the companion piece to the Ford GT I did recently. The GT40 will eventually be a part of a diorama with the GT. This is my first Fujimi kit and overall it was a really nice kit. As you can see from the photos, it wasn't the [...]

Tamiya 1966 Rusty 1300 Beetle 1/24

This assembly was a lot of fun playing and experimenting with rust, the effects of the passage of time, recreating textures. The kit is quite easy to assemble (compared to others such as motorcycles), but I added some customizations such [...]

Tamiya Honda Repsol 213V '14 1/12

This model was my 2nd adventure in the hobby, and I had already learned a lot from the mistakes made in the first one. I really enjoyed building this kit, because I spent a lot of time to build the exact color that matched the original. I [...]

1/24 Monogram "Orange Hauler"

Monogram's 1990 reissue of their 1966 kit. A straight-out-of-the-box build. I kept it simple, which made this project a pleasure from start to finish. The first car model I've built since I was a kid in the 1960s. One of my favorites back [...]

Kawasaki ZZR 1400

Another Tamiya 1/12th scale motorcycle, the Kawasaki ZZR1400. Brought to you by Cricket AKA @Bikequeen : ) I have always contended there is no black and white but a million shades of grey and to me, this bike is a study in black and grey. [...]

Harley Davidson 1971 XFE 1200 Super Glide

While I await my modelers block and other life situations to go away, I offer one of my favorite builds. I built this July of 2022. It Tamiya’s 1/6 kit # 16010. The “body” came molded in blue But it called for “Pearl Blue”. I [...]

1/32 1933 MG K3 Magnette

I came across this kit on ebay whilst looking for info on the K3 MG. Being an avid fan of the marque and an ex owner of both an MG TC and an MGA mk2 I decided to buy the K3 kit. It was over priced and overseas but what the heck its a [...]

A Little Cappuccino

My first completed non-military car model in more than 25 years! I present the Aoshima 1/24 Suzuki Cappuccino. I picked this up at a local Japanese market that has begun carrying models (almost all Aoshima car and motorcycle kits) and Mr. [...]
