Revell Phantom Vicky
This was built 100% OOB a while ago mainly as a painting exercise. It was my first serious attempt at using acrylics. I wanted to see how well it laid down & if it stayed on when masked with tape. Worked out pretty well in both areas. [...]
1970 Nissan Skyline GT-R (KPGC-10) Rubber Soul
Just finished this one - built completely stock from the Fujimi kit.
Paint was Rover Leyland White with Zero Paints Nissan Active Red. I had to mask and spray this as the decals cracked when I tried to apply them. Top coat was Zero Two [...]
The Dodge Power Wagon, Coast Guard Rescue Unit, 1950
Four wheel drive vehicles are common place today but in the post WWII era they were a novelty in the motoring world. Companies like the Willys Motor Company were quick to seize the importance of their famous "JEEP" in the [...]
1/25 AMT Model T Farm Truck
Howdy,
Made this out of one of the many umpteen reissues of the venerable AMT Model T kit.
About the only changes I made was to construct a bench seat and bed from various wooden stir sticks. Weathered with graphite, pastels and Tamiya [...]
1/25 Airfix Maserati Boomerang... and a warning for those who don’t know!
What we had here was a Maserati Boomerang. We'll start off with the warning. It doesn't matter how cool you think it is outside, don't leave your models in the car with the windows rolled up! The body on mine had softened and settled over [...]

This is my latest completion done as a mild custom/street machine.
All the emblems have been removed.
It has been lowered using blocks in the rear & modified spindles in front.
Engine is a 409 from the kit with modified air cleaners [...]
1957 Ford
I seem to be finishing automotive kits lately. This is my latest. It is a 1/25th scale Revell 1957 Ford done as a mild custom using the nostalgia approach.
All emblems & handles have been removed. It is lowered using blocks in the rear [...]
1/25 '69 Camaro
Though I did manage to make this car come out decent, it was a huge pain. As I was working on this car, I had not let the paint cure all the way and I put a clear cote on it. Because of this the paint started to wrinkle and I panicked; I [...]
1/25 AMT ERTL Snapfast Plus-Ford GT90
This is how you take a 15 minute snap-tite project, and turn it into week long ordeal. The Ford GT 90 (concept) was a flop ! Considering it's unusal look, it did hve a pop-up "wing" in the rear, which only made it look more so. [...]
