  1. Very nice. I built mine without the water storage box To make it a bit different too the showmans engine.
  2. Oh they are both lovely.Great builds. Love 1 16th scale. Wish there were more.
  3. Hand painted or sprayed you have done a good job. A fine looking truck.
  4. Welcome Grant. Fine looking builds. Always good to see a new member.
  5. Just like the real thing Pat. Fine work & fun I bet.
  6. Great collection,fine builds.I always look out for a Prestons Of Potto when I am on the road.
  7. Nice looking build.You have done a fine job.Like the colour combo.
  8. Hi .Thank you for the kind words.It was a Revell Kit. I am a old retired guy who is on his own, so can model as & when I choose hence the quick build, plus I did not put the work into it that i normally would. I just wanted a break from the intensity of the 1 12th scale build. The doors don't close, just glued them open. The painting was auto primer then 15 mins later top coat. No polishing.
  9. A quicky build to make a break from 1 12th Built it over a weekend.No one of the best,but looks ok on display shelf. Nice seam the child has LOL Close up shows all the faults. Thanks for looking
  10. Hi Dale Even more impressive with the extra photo's
  11. Both fine builds,& I notice you managed the drive chain on the Mefistofele.Think you have also added rivets. Very good . Not easy builds.
  12. Great scratch building of a unusual subject. We don't see too many like that.
  13. Thank you Toryu Glad you liked it .I sometimes think I am one of the few who appreciates older model vehicles.
  14. Thank you all for the kind comments Size wise it is about 13"x6". Too big. Of the 3 sizes I have built I think 1/ 16th is the ideal one.Shame there are so few kits in it. Mine are all old kits. The other is of course 1/24th. Have 3 or 4 1/12th kits in my small stash but that will be all in that scale.
  15. Yes it was a Bandai kit Marco. & very old.
  16. Bought off E bay part started. when it arrived it was further on than stated.Stripped paint,& dissembled as much as I could. I know very old cars are not that popular but they are what I mostly do. It was a decent kit to build old but ok
  17. That's a fine looking build.I love the colour.
  18. Superb build, but then all of yours are. A master craftsman at his best.
