I've been working on a pair of 1970-1/2 Camaros for the last couple of months. I just finished my Z/28 version and was just about to get started on the Baldwin Motion Camaro when I found out that a good friend of mine at work was going to retire in late November. He owns a 2017 Camaro "Fiftieth"...

Well guys…the Mustang build, as much as I hate to say it, had to come to an end. I’ve gotta say that I really enjoyed that build alot. I had been doing alot of pondering about what was next up on the bench and had it all narrowed down to three but couldn’t make my mind up on what I wanted to...

I finished this one after 7 months in July of 2017 and this is another one that's got a special place with me. I've shown it at one other place but thought I'd try my luck here as well. This car was my very first car model and I originally built it at 12 years old. It survived all these years to...

I stumbled onto this several years ago when I was building my Revell '56 Ford F-100. I had seen all examples of homemade return springs from wire wound around a small needle so I gave it a shot. I'm a pretty patient guy so I gave it several tries and just couldn't get uniform wraps to get a...

Started out with these two kits and a Pro Street vision between the two. I've always had an eye for Revell's "Street Demons" series back in 1983 but I don't really care for the gasser look that a few of 'em had...……..this one in particular. In staying with the theme I set out to change things...

I've got this posted in my introduction thread but this is going to be an ongoing mod/ build for a while so I figured I'd start another thread. Fyi....My other hobby (and a much more expensive hobby at that) is hotrodding as if that couldn't be guessed already. ;) My current ride is a 1994...

Of all the aircraft models I've built in my life this one here is my favorite. This build took me about 4 months to get finished. Being a Tamiya it lends itself to a quick build. It was a run of the mill 1/48 Tamiya Fw190 D-9 with an Aires (pretty much complete engine and cockpit set), CMK...

When I started this build I had no intention of building the General Lee as everyone knows it. I am a Charger fan long before I am a "Dukes" fan but still like the look of the General Lee so I hope I don't hurt any GL purists out there looking on. I built one as a kid and have always wanted to...

Alright gang. I've just about made my mind up that the next build I'll be taking on will be the latest release of AMT's '67 Mustang by Round 2. The kit has alot going for it in the fact that there's updated decals, cleaner molds and pad printed tires. I've been wanting to build one of these...

I bought this kit during the spring time of 2015 for a project to do with my son. I bought one for me and one for him to build together at the same pace. After we got started we both realized that this wasn't the kit to have a beginner on so I shelved it and bought something a little easier for...

I've been wanting to build this car for the last few years and figured that now might be a good time to break it out. There's not much in the way of AM for this kit so it was the perfect one to do an OOB build on. The only things that were added was an "AC Delco" decal on the oil filter, a Hot...

I've managed to get the inside of this building completed to my liking over the years and am now working on the outside. Took me a couple of years to get everything built and to look right. a shot with my '56 F-100 "Demon II" under way.

Late last year I saw a build review of this kit in Fine Scale Modeler. I've always been a fan of the older Beetles and have also wanted to build a model of one from WWII so needless to say I just had to have this kit. Soooo....my wife got it for me for Christmas. I've been waiting for a slot in...

I can’t remember the last time I started an aircraft model. Sheesh! What’s it been now…five years?? Just haven’t felt comfortable with my painting and weathering skills until the finish up of my Ar 234 last year. Additionally, automotive modeling has given me a new spin on airbrushing. Well…I...

I had been wanting to build a Maverick for a VERY long time but there aren’t many kits to choose from. The best offering (and this isn’t saying much) is the Jo-Han kit. I was fortunate to get mine from someone on another forum for the mere price of $50. These kits are running around 300+ bucks...

I started this model over three years before I finally finished it and ran into a lot of problematic areas with this kit. To say that this kit has now moved into #1 on my most difficult/ frustrating and sometimes angering build would simply be an understatement. In addition to the fact that I...

A couple of years ago I decided to re-visit an old childhood fave of mine. I was drawn to the Street Demons series and even more drawn to the 56 Ford F-100 offering in that series. I ended up doing a total revamp of that kit when I did sit down to have a “second go” at that kit. Little did I...

Hello to all. My name is Joe and I've been around the modeling forum realm for around 10 years and building models on and off for the last 40 or so years. I had left the hobby a few decades back but came back to it while trying to find something to occupy my mind that was halfway productive...
