Model car kits anyone?
This is what I do when I have some free time from anything. I've done alot of these but most are not pictured.
This is what on my shelve right now, I'm gonna need to buy some more shelves soon.
I got 3 more kits that I need to finish. 92-95 civic hatchback euro kit, Jdm Wrx Sti(bug eye verison), Jdm Ap1 or Ap2 S2000.
This kit is just finished tonight. A Skyline R32 if I'm not mistaken. I want to own one of these in real life, know how can I get my hands on one of them?
I've tried my best to have it detailed pretty good.
Engine shot...
undercarriage shot..
So who esle in here does these kit in their own free time?

Re: Model car kits anyone? (scrcrw)
haha, now this is my type of thread, lol. I have not touched my models in over 2 years now due to other projects and responsibilities but I started building models when I was 7 but did not really show any skill til my late teens/early twenties. here are some of my fav's, you can check my website for a more pics if you like. I used to have a few hundred but somebody hacked and crashed my last website and I just never uploaded the rest so the Hondas are all I have on there now.

I scratch build all my custom stuff from bare plastic
on the eg for example: I scratch built the roll cage, the intake manifold, throttle body, intake and exhaust manifolds, radiator, rad hoses and all kinds of other stuff I lost track of but the stokc model kits are just lacking in a lot of ways. that's why I scratch build

Re: Model car kits anyone? (EK tommy)
Those are sick up there. The engine bays are nicely done. I used to do these but lost interest awhile ago, brings back some memories.
The R32
I'm going to try to start a collection of some of the already built scale models though for sure. I've been looking at the WRC cars on ebay, those are sick.
