Art & Inspiration Sunday models

I just finished this one yesterday. '41 Chevy cab and shortened bed on a '32 Ford frame. ( Sounds wierd but it works). Hemi with a Latham blower. Bic cigarette lighter fuel tank (shortened and cut down). Scratchbuilt tie-down rack in bed. Most of interior scratchbuilt.

 

Nice !!!!!

 

sweet

 

SO cool Lyle. Love the license plate. Slim

 

Lyle, your modeling skills are exceeded only by your imagination. Cool build!

 

if it had an outdoor background it would look real. very nice work.

 

Not as nice as the previous but my daughter and I are digging it.

 

here are some photos of my junk yard

 

Very nice job on the junk yard... I have been thinking of doing a garage diorama. Could you share your technique for weathering wood ?

 

Just a heads up, Meijers has a display of plastic models for Christmas. Most are late models and muscle cars, but I did find the Revell 5-window '32 for $11.99.

 

Your builds are always choice!

 

Cool stuff today guy's.

Lyle,Nice job on the truck! Are the wheels/tires combo aftermarkt?

Myron.

 

Wouah !!
Lyle, your '41 Chevy is great !!
Félicitations !!!



my '41 Willys, latest model...

 

Great looking models again today!

Here is some progress on a 1/8 scale California jalopy dirt tracker. The oil can is used as a radiator overflow catch can...

 

Wheels and caps are from the '41 Chevy truck kit. The slicks on the rears are resin from The Modelhaus.
Thanks to all for the nice comments.

 

Cool Stuff Guys!

Here's a work in progress.

 

Here's one I built a few months ago. Just dug it out and thinking of finishing it.
Not even close to whats posted here, but I built it from some scrap tin and a small sheet of wood.
