GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); OK, those horrible resin nightmares are gone and with a gigantic sigh of relief I open the box of a model, test fit a few parts and whaddya know, THEY FIT TOGETHER!! It's good to be back with Tamiya So this is the new project, another Porsche but the beautiful 911 GT1. As garish as it looks I really ...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); So here is a quick build from me, a Revell F2007. I work in a model shop and the previous model I built for the window display suffered some damage after it was dropped when we were putting christmas decorations up, so the boss said I could take a new kit for free. We get Revell kits free from the rep if we build them ...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); Well after I finished the McLaren MP4/7 I fancied doing a rally car as it seems ages since my last one.So far I got the body shell painted (Zero World Rally Blue) and started the decals.The decals seem a little brittle, so much so that one of the Denso logo's on the front wing curled up and destroyed itself.If ...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); Well, I've had to put the 1/8th Spyder on hold for a while as I'm going back to college for a couple of years. The scratchbuild takes too long to get into and takes up too much brain power, plus I'm away from home for a couple of nights a week and need something that I can pick up and put down quickly. The ideal ...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); Here's my version of Hasegawa's wonderful kit of the Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa. I guess this is not so much a WIP thread (that is, not a step-by-step build update) as a preview of my nearly completed build. I'm using Hasegawa's photoetch wheel set and KA Models' detail set, both of which I highly recommend. This is my ...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); Hello! I'm back again with a new kit (Revell Cervini is on the side for a while). Kit is supplied in a standard Fujimi kinda packaging, meaning: - very sensitive body plastics, - drivetrain is same as the one on my S13 - a lot of add-ons (nicely detailed braking discs, Recaro-like seat, exhaust side pipe...)...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); Well this is an unexpected WIP! I decided to dig out a Fujimi 126C San Marino kit and do a quick build OOB just working on building a clean build. Cleaning the parts and getting everything primed when I notice the body was a miss - mold on the left front! After checking into what it would take to get a...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); Hello all, After reading the posts in this forum, I have finally become an AF member. This is my first post, so I'll try to do my best. I bought this kit in December 2007, but I didn't start it until last June. I have added some detail parts (the Marlboro decals, a Good Year template for the tires from Acu Stion,...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); Needed a simple and nice out of the box-build, to finally get something finished again. I chose Hasegawas LeMans Jaguar from 1987, which really is a nice, problem free kit. In a way it is a bit too simple. No engine, no suspension, wheels do not steer, even the brakes have no calipers, there are only disks. ...

Well, that was quite a break huh? Finally have something new to show - front suspension and cooling: First of all, all white metal parts were cleaned, polished with wire brush, and fine sanded. Some were painted in basic black color. Part of the front suspension that is molded-in on the chassis was carefully painted with MM aluminum metalizer. Then parts of the cooling pipes were detailed with...

GA_googleFillSlot("Forums_ROS_300x250_noad"); While I was a bit bored with my Escort MkII I've start to thinking of new project. Focus was my first ever so when I looked at it I get an idea to rebuild it. Kit was Revells Focus driven by McRea/Sainz. It's still Revell but now it's Delecours' car. As ussual had some problems with this kit. Ok lets see what was done ...
