Don't ever buy this kit...it's a bloody nightmare to build.
Nothing fits, parts and finshing of kit takes forever to clean up.

My 2 Volvo 850's. The red one was driven by Peter Brook and uses after market decals on the Tamiya BTCC model pictured here with it.

Oh! There is something about looking at other peoples kits, it so gets me in the mood!
You really are good, and I can see we like the same sort of detail as I take about the same time to complete them too! Those I complete anyway!
Like I said, it is a shame this run of paint cracking has ruined so many of my current projects, and I have only just sorted the reason!

Love the Alfa. I have that kit, and the Volvo as you know!
My cousin did the Accords! Nightmare as you said!

They are great, adn thanks for getting me in the mood! I know what I will be doing on my day off tomorrow!

I will get my camera out now and take a few 'in progress shots'!

I sourced it down to the primer, as it even happened before the lacquer went on one model!

Still, these things are here to try us!!!

So what are you working on at the moment?
When do you tend to do most of your modelling?
I suppose you don't have weather problems like we do! I try to get most of my spraying done in the summer as we get so much rain over winter!

I am just so impressed with what you have posted so far!!

Any chance of a pic of them all together? Do you keep them all in a cabinet or what?

I've taken over her wall unit ..i'll get some pics up of it later.
I've run out of room in it so i have kinda slowed down a bit untill i get something new.

I'm think i will start on the CLK and a '70 Dodge Challenger 2'n1 soon by revell.
Nothing started just yet.... i decided to finsh all the ones i had not finshed(about 5)...so i'm thinking about what to do next.
I would like to get the Skyline or Evo by Tamiya...but most of my moneys going into my car at the moment

Most of it i do at night when i'm alone and wont be bothered by wife or kids.
