Scale models of cars, trucks, motorcycles, machinery.
One of the better AMT offerings. The good: Most of it went together well and the molding is above average for AMT. The bad: The clear portion for the windshield does not fit very well, and at least on this one the cab required some clever [...]
Beautifully engineered and high grade kit in a scale I rarely build.
Commission build.
1/24 Profil 24 Jaguar XJR5 Daytona 1985 Group 44
Is there a more beautiful race car? Not for me anyway. On a track they are simply
poetry in motion. A quite an exceptional kit in every way. I think I recall using generic rattle can [...]
1/24 Hasegawa Lancia 037 Rally:
Usual Hasegawa quality and detail. Excellent decals. Used two pack clear coat and think it’s a bit
too thick. Probably not use it again? GOAT rally cars..among many:)
1/24 Fujimi Toyota FJ Cruiser
An exact curbside replica of my full scale Toyota FJ Cruiser. I had custom decals made for the correct vanity plate and Paris-Dakar window graphics. Added exact upgrade with BFG All Terrain tires.
1/16 Minicraft Jaguar SS100 1938
For some alleged personal sins I build (or try to build) vintage kits? I just put some effort into improving them a bit without the time required to re engineer the old tech. Of course the wire wheels are [...]
1/4 Franzis Operating Porsche Engine
A much better engineered kit compared to the many vintage operating engine models I’ve built. Aka this one actually works and has LED spark plugs and a reasonable sound card. But that should be [...]
1/3 Minicraft Honda 750 4 Display Engine
Great kit with super parts detailing. Added sliding display section. Looks like Floquil Old
Silver but the actual paint, which made this work, I forgot as that was the last of it?
Great kit with [...]
I built 50% of this kit over 15 years ago. Eventually, the box was too large to ignore.
This is what I always wanted to do to my real E Type. This kits ’reputation’ didn’t disappoint: I see it as a vintage toy kit that always wanted [...]
I also like heavy trucks and do a few from time to time. This was a cheap kit at the LHS that I decided to test my scratching and grafting skill level on...and it occupied the bench for a fair amount of time.
The dump box is from an AMT [...]
