My Three for 2020
Posted by mustang1989 on Friday, January 1, 2021 2:59 PM

This last year all started with my Jo-Han Maverick build ( which dang near killed me. lol). I ran into some snags with this one that caused me to break out with a couple of diversion builds to keep the forward modeling momentum going.

2-3 builds a year is about typical out of me as slow as I build.

My 1/25 Jo-Han...ish Maverick:

Diversion Build #1. My 1/25 Revell Ram Air Trans Am:

Diversion Build #2. My Ryefield 1/35 VW Beetle in Wermacht Service:

Despite its small scale it was already packed with detail....and then I added some more:

Thanks John. That VW was the easiest out of all three builds.

Considering the level of detail you pack into every project, I think 3 is a lot.

Love that Maverick!  Reminds me of my first car, a '72 Comet with a 302.

Excellent builds Joe. That Maverick should do 9's in the quarter. Oh wait it's not real?

   Nice grouping, car builders alway amaze me. I have a 1/1 representation of automobile basics sitting in the driveway.....yet interior colors, engine detail, suspension...quite literally escapes me. Beautiful and well done builds.

we're modelers it's what we do

Joe those are some really nice builds right there! I see some Ford and some GM representation but no Mopar muscle!

Sorry for the late reply Chad. Thanks a million for the comments and hope to have another Mopar build in the works soon. I've got a couple of ideas going.
