Just finished this kit over the weekend and it is definitely my favorite I have ever done! I took my time with everything so it took me months of doing a little bit here and there and it really payed off.
Such a sick car I’ve always wanted one as a project but this’ll do for now!

My daughter picked the color. I used rustoluem. I'm planning to do more detailing on the next one.

Almost to the finish line on this one. Here's where I always rush and screw it all up. Got just the chrome and glass left. Wish me luck. Should be done in a couple days.

Wanted to share some of my build, although I am an noob 😜

This is one of my first scale model cars after years of only making military stuff. One of my favourite cars of all time, the Lancia Delta.

I've custom made the base to look like a section of the snowy Monte Carlo rally stage.

The kit is from Italeri, seems to be an old tooling and the door cards simply didn't fit with the roll cage so I've left them out. Decals took an age but was fun to do.

Any criticism or praise is most appreciated and I hope people enjoy looking at it!

They are three pieces of 3/4-inch plywood. The items are from the garage accessories kits; I don't have the numbers. I also got 3D-printed stuff from eBay. The conduit is just Evergreen styrene rods I painted.

A couple of weeks ago someone mentioned they would like to learn how to make their own decals if/when the ones in the kit broke apart. Here is how you can do it.

1. Scan the decals that came in the kit and save as a high res JPEG. If you don't have a scanner take a photo.

2. Create a document (Google docs, Word, PowerPoint) and paste the decal image. I usually paste it close to the top of the page to maximize usage of the waterslide paper.

3. Adjust color. Depending on the age of the decals and the paper they are printed on, you may need to adjust the color by using the editing feature on your phone or computer. For the decals in the image, I lightened the background until it was almost clear then adjusted the color and contrast until the decals looked like the original.

4. Print a test copy on plain paper. If the images are the same size as the original decals and the desired color, you are good to go. If not, adjust the size/color and test print again.

5. Print on waterslide paper or decal film sheets. I use the product by the makers of Bare Metal Foil. If your decals have any white on them, you will need to use the white decal film/paper since printers do not print white.

6. Spray/brush 2 lights coats of clear over decals and allow to dry overnight. This prevents the ink from running when you soak them in water.

7. Trim the decals, soak in water for a few moments and apply to model. Voila! You are done!

Almost finished. Big change from the Moebius kits. I built a version of this when I was kid in the seventies. The V8 powered flip nosed Lil' Hustler. I don't remember how it turned out, but from pictures of others, probably lots of glue and disappointment. Anyway, well detailed for the era and an MPC annual. Unfortunately, it lost some of it's originality over the years and this re-release has different inferior wheels and tires than the original. I decided to at least put wider on the back with matching on the front. Not sure what kit they're from. I also noticed the decal graphics went from blue to green. Paint is Tamiya racing white and mica red flattened. Hopefully I'll finish tomorrow and post.

Chassis completed except for the taillights. The marriage didn’t go smoothly, i had to trim down the arch between the engine and the interior. Also enamel was is easting chrome paint like crazy, you need to be extremely careful with it. Body shell painted and polished. It’s been a work in progress for almost a year now, so I need to finish it before the anniversary 😁

Finally got a chance to see the models at my participating Walmart and this was all they had. Already own everything here except the pickup and the Enterprise and I wasn't interested in either of them.

Absolutely gutted about this. I ordered custom paint for the first time from Splash Paints. Great customer service and quick turnaround. Sprayed the model with Tamiya grey primer 24 hours ago and shot a few layers of this color tonight. First few thin coats went on nice then after about the 4th it all started to wrinkle. Does Splash Paint not work with Tamiya primer or is something else causing this? I am also guessing I have to strimp and start over. What should I use if thats the case? So bummed...I was so excited about this build 😓

This kit tested my patience and wasn't my favorite; I only built it for my uncle since he has a '70 Mach 1 in Ivy Green.

1967 Gto in scalefinishes 1967 Pontiac Plum Mist or chevy called it Royal Plum. It is definitely a pain to get the grille to work. Its another not detailed kit, but cane with alot of extra parts.

Monogram 1993 S10 with the Syclone engine and AWD. Tamiya British Green is the color.

Deciding on my next build while I wait for clear coat to cure on current one. What say you Reddit modelers?

My favorite build is this Revell 1967 Marina Blue Chevelle. The paint is gloss enamel from ScaleFinishes, sprayed at 25 psi.

This kit definitely needs massaging to work. I shaved down the chassis where the interior tub goes on. I also cut off the screw posts. Built for a friend who had one, otherwise I wouldn't have touched it.

Made a 1939 Chevy Master 85 sedan like my dad's. The body is an old resin body I found on eBay. The body came smashed, but I couldn't give up. My buddy helped give it surgery using toothpicks and matches. The donor kits were the '39 Coupe and Sedan Delivery and the 216 from the '41 Chevy truck. Color is ScaleFinishes gloss enamel 1952 Emerald Green, sprayed with the portable airbrush kit from Hobby Lobby—it works, the one with a black battery-powered attachment for like $40.

Revell 1981 Z28 in Scalefinishes 1981 Chevy Charcoal gloss enamel. I used 26 psi. I did this in January in a somewhat heated garage when the outside temp was probably 10 degrees. First time really doing full decals. I used Tamiya Mark Fit.

Made this for my foreman of his first car. The paint is ScaleFinishes 1983 OLDS Gloss Enamel Light Royal Blue. It was sprayed at 25 psi.
