New guy's current model collection (56k warning like whoa)
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, October 22, 2005 7:34 PM
My dad actually directed me here; he just got back into building models. But I think I've signed up first, and here's my showcase... they are all Tamiya 1/24th scale plastic kits.

First off is a custom job I'm working on currently. It's a Tamiya 1/24th scale Ferrari 360 Spyder, with an MSM 360CS resin transkit. So by the time I'm done, I'll have made a Ferrari 360 Spyder Challenge Stradale :). The entire rear hatch was cut apart and is being rebuilt, you can see it in some of the pictures.





Next up is an Opel Astra V8 Coupe DTM I made, with working gullwing doors, though I don't have any decent pictures of them open.








Now, this is one of my pride and joys, my Porsche 959. I love it because I think it's the first model I did REALLY WELL (it was built before the Astra. It's actually the oldest car in this picture set). The pictures are from two different photoshoots, as you'll see later on, the interior changed from red to tan, because red made the car look like a watermelon. It features Alclad II Prismatic Green-to-Gold color-shifting paint.






Here's a Nissan 350Z/Fairlady Z that I made. Also sprayed in Alclad II Prismatic, this time Green-to-Blue. Custom black/gold/silver interior.







And here are some pictures of the two color shifters together. Two different photoshoots, one in my sunroom, the other my driveway. The latter look a lot better.
