    Sunday in Australia (and other places) so I thought that I might kick start the models this week. I think that I enjoy photographing the models nearly as much as I enjoy building them:), so I hope that you enjoy my offerings this week:D

    Here some pictures of of my Woody project. For the wood I had tried the first time decals from Uschi van der Rosten. Whats missing is the clear coat.

    Rod: Great shots as usual :)

    Miwi: I can't wait to see how the woody turns out ;)

    My 1932 C/A build is getting closer to completion:

    [​IMG]

    The engine in the in front of the car was supposed to be used but it just didn't fit into the frame because of the headers. So I built a similar engine with other headers. The spare engine is designated for a A/SR build that I am planning.

    This duece is not for the H.A.M.B. build off, gathering parts for some other 1932 Fords ;)

    I have been modifying some 1:18 diecasts into gassers, headers, rotisserie, some shop equipment and suspensions are homemade, not traditional plastic model building but I am having a blast! More to come!

  12. I just finished completely disassembling, repainting, and rebuilding this old model of my '63 Chevy truck to try and make it look closer to the real thing.

    I agree. Where did you get the short box for the truck?

    There are some very outstanding model dragsters, hotrods, pickups and that woody; all show winners in my book. I've been doing some topless body building on my 1/8 scale late model.[​IMG]
