Sunday Models 4.1.2012

I'll start off before work. Here is a Lindberg '48 Lincoln I started on(lots of work to make those look nice), Hauler is ready for paint (wish I had Zed's ability right now) and my latest score- 8 models for $20

 

Couple of things I've got on the bench.

 

Here some pictures of the new Lincoln from Replicas Miniatures of Maryland which will be my next project.















The master was done by Rik Hoving. You need a '49 Merucry from amt.

 

mock up for the 32 build off.........

 

Like the T bucket Tweed
Rod

 

btt

 

my build should look something along this line.

 

Nice score on the 8 model!!! Truck and car are looking good

 

Here is my mock up for the 32 build off.


But this last one some thing I will doing latter it a Jimmy Flinstone Chopped 32 resin body. I think it's going to get a flathead mill

 

Your "T" is just about perfect. I'd love to have a 1:1 version of one just like that.

 

Wow! You did a great job of raiding the parts box... way too cool!

I love these Sunday Models threads.

 

Always a Sunday morning treat to see what you guys are up to. Nice workmanship.

 

I think I put this up a while ago, if I get anywhere with it thinking of putting it in the 32 build-off.
Made from bit's from my old spares box. AMT 32 5wdo body without a roof, a roof from a Revell 32 3 wdo coupe, the wheels, tyres and engine are....... I have no fucking idea, chassis is from brass tube.








With a stock Revell 32 Body, a chopped one and the parts box special!





Cheers,

Doc.

 

Nice jalopy lanny, here's one of mine:

 

I dont know what scale it is but its mine.

 

^^^^ haha,thats cool as hell,how much does it weigh?

 

well, i posted a few weeks ago about how gracious member "strike a poser" was to send me a model and half for free. he did this when i was looking for parts to complete a model of the truck my grandpa gave me before he passed away. well i finally "completed" the model. (it will get similar modifications as the truck evolves)

obviously i'm not as good as alot of you guys, but i'm proud of it. hope it doesn't offened anyone being o/t

first is a picture of the model on the hood of his truck for color/paint comparison
second is the day if his funeral, when i got to drive him to his final resting place, in his truck.

 

Well i can still lift it ;-)
Some more work to do before its ready for summer.

 

Here are some pics of a built up '55 Bel Air I recently scored on ebay. First 2 are as received, followed by scratchbuilt radiator support (original was missing), suspension mods, new stance mock up after suspension mods.

 

Im liking that!!

Mr 42, that is a neat car!Everybody has good stuff this week. I am pateintly waiting for a package from Modelhaus, should be here next week. I got a few sets of Buick and Chrysler wire wheels and a bunch of odds and ends to make customs with. Still got to get a few more things , but I've spent all my model money for awhile. Still got to get some resin casting supplies stocked up for some future projects. Good stuff this week!

 

Nice!
