Looks fantastic, paint finish is perfect & the chrome work is really clean. The wheels look really good for 1/32 scale too. Are they out of the box too?

Great build. Those seats have come out really well, that must be really thin leather. Rest of the car looks perfect, I have a soft spot for the batmobile beemer
-
Lovely job. Nice work on the interior, is that real wood on the dash?

I have a Cortina and a Zodiac for sale, and they don't run to 3 figures.
Cortina 😲 , I could consider getting a second mortgage 😅

That’s a really nice build. The paint finish is like glass! I see hints of a well put together interior in there too, I might have to look for your WIP thread
-
This looks so good! Especially considering the scale. I’ve done a couple of the Airfix 1/32 kits & know how tricky it is to get a good result. Love those wheels too

You never see the kit anymore! Nicely put together, did you paint the body?

Nicely detailed engine bay & the colour for the interior is spot on!

at the Bond in Motion exhibition in Covent Garden
That was a great exhibition, is it still there? I’d just bought my BMW Z8 kit & it was the only time I’ve ever the real car. It does make me wonder if there’s a Aston V8 kit at all.
The Rolls looks like the roof has been cut off before the drivers area, if you have a PE saw & cut it cleanly, you could always glue the roof back on, if it doesn’t work

Really nicely done! definitely a beast of a car! The white looks good, (which isn’t easy!) & really clean build
-
Nice finish. Great work on the decals
-
Very nice! I’ve not seen one of these, I must have a look at Mobeus models. Paint works really well
-
Such a perfect finished. Those coal bags look so real!
-
Wow those are big exhaust pipes! Really mean looking Skyline!

Really nicely done. My favourite F1 livery 👍

That’s beautiful! Love the boat tail

OUTSTANDING and GORGEOUS model.
RESPLENDENT and colourful Buikd.
somehow its aesthetic lines reminds ME of a De Lorean..
Thank you. I think the DeLorean was partly inspired by the original Countach

You use pre thinned zero clear, I'm guessing this is their 1k clear, did you have to sand thru the grades, then polish?
Great build!
Thank you. I really like the the 1k clear, it goes on quite thin, so I usually add one more coat than it needs & polish with micromesh, then finish with Meguars car polish

Nice detail on such a small scale! Really like the idea of creating a hill climb car from this era, the double wheels at the back is a nice touch

Perfect tribute. The Stirling Moss Mille Miglia story is almost a legend. You’ve built a fantastic model there & compares really well to the real thing

Really nice build of a super beefy Porsche
-
Looks great. Like @Chimpion said, the simple livery works really well.
-
That is a beast of an engine! It’s almost a shame to hide it inside the car. I’ve always fancied the Testarossa kit, but too scared I’d mess up a £800 kit. You definitely have the skills, I look forward to seeing this come together
-
Great work on those pulleys, now you’ve given the engine a face 😂

I thought the gold looked good before, but now it really shines! Nice outcome

Some really nice details & decals are perfect! I know it’s a photo backdrop, but I’d like to think that you really have that Lotus Europa behind the door
