ITALERI 1/12 ALFA 8c.

This is my take on the Alfa 2300 Monza. It's a fairly poor kit and reqired quite a bit of work. I've used somewhat massive amount of add ons, all scratch built to fit. The engine bay is re-wired with various copper and vinyl pieces and a [...]

Red Bull Renault RB8 Revell 1/24

My first racing car model, Red Bull Renault RB8 from Revell 1/24 driven by Sebastian Vettell during the German Grand Prix 2012 season, I had the chance to see this car during the EEUU Grand Prix in Austin Texas; Vettel won his third [...]

Tamiya 1/12 xv1600.

Here's the next chapter in my current motorcycle fixation. It's Tamiya's XV1600 Custom which I have modified slightly to look more like a "semi-customised" version... I removed all the kit's fake chrome and re-did all the metal [...]

Tamiya 1/12 Yamaha Virago XV1000.

This is my take on Tamiya's Yamaha XV1000... Built from the box except that I removed the fake chrome plating and used Alclad for all the metal bits. I decided to paint it in a custom "retro" style scheme with Tamiya's Pearl [...]

Review: Tamiya 1/24 Ford Mustang GT4 review

1963 Corvette Stingray, 'route 66',1/24 Revell.

And now for something that doesn't shoots, fires at or blows up things. One of the coolest TV shows on in the early 1960's was 'route 66', it had two guys driving across the America[and Canada] in a Corvette, working at odd jobs and [...]

John Deere 4430

I grew up on a farm with green tractors, and as kids my school mates and I used to have tug-of-wars over whether John Deere or IH were the better tractors. Sometime around my early teens I built the Ertl Massey-Ferguson 1155 tractor which [...]

1/20 scale Tamiya Snap Loc 1993 T93-00 Lola Ford IndyCar by Don Weixl

I picked up this 1/20th scale kit at an estate sale partially built for $10 Canadian. The original price tag on the box was $35.00. Some minor sub assembly painting was done. The instructions say the kit was released in 1993. I didn’t [...]

Tamiya 1/12 YAMAHA YZF-R1M.

This is my Tamiya Yamaha YZF-R1M. Built almost straight from the box using Mr Color and Tamiya lacquer paints. The metallic effects are Alclad but with a couple of coats of Mr Color clear so it looks like automotive lacquer. I lost the [...]
