I saw that in the magazine also. Yes you can call him 'competion' in a way. But he doesn't have a website or email, so how much business is he going to attract? Plus his body kits look ridiculous and over-sized. I wouldn't worry about him too much. You're miles ahead!:D

Competition? Only if you want to see your models swimming around in a fishtank under black lights will your models not seem as...uh..."good" as that horrendous ITR package. That's one hideous body package-it looks like something poisonous from undersea! He needs to turn down the "volume" from 11 to about 3 and that package might look a bit better.
Now, where's that "Ultimate Celica":devil: :devil: :D

Chris,
Put the cap back on the glue and the lid back on the resin, I think the fumes are going to your head!!
If you want to compare your work to that, then fine, but I think you have already set yourself in a different league just by the quality of your work.
I saw that when it was in the magazine, and at no time looking at your kits have his come to mind, simply because there is no comparison.
Remember, your kits are based on real life cars and kits, his is based on something out of Star Wars.
Don't worry about him, we aren't. If you want to make a statement, send some pictures of yours to Scale Auto and let them know you have a website and all that!

the only thing you and the guy that made that monstrosity have in common is that you both make transkits for models. that's it. that thing is ugly as hell! he made it way too big, and way too curvy and shit. at least you make transkits for good cars, like C-West 350Z and the Bomex 180. trust me Chris, your stuff is way better.

No offense to Paul Casarez, but..
:monkeypis Paul's Integra
Your transkits are like a fleet of Ferraris, his are the Yugos that never made it out of Eastern Europe.
Once your site is up, submit it to Scale Auto with some pics!

no way to compete with you. I like the resin chairs, but that BIG front air-intake sucks all the air from the road......:help: :help: :help: :cwn27:

"Cold Air Intake" = intercooler? :confused: If so, his intercooler looks like a brick of cheese next to yours, Chris. ;)

WTF?!?!?!?! Where are the wings for that transkit??????? He is trying to convert it into a plane right????????? I always wanted a jet plane that resembled a ITR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOT!
Come on Fly, your being ridiculous about this competition stuff, this guys kit is humangous!! When I first opened this post I thought, if fly thinks he has competition, this post must have some beautiful cars in it! But then I was wrong!
I got so many complaints about it, that it could shut down this darn forum for a "too large" post!!! It doesn't even have side skirts for crying out loud! Haha, the spoiler really does look like a handle to carry that thing around!! It's such an embarassment, I really pity this guy! I know one thing he's good at, making cars look like pieces of Shite!!

A PIECE OF SHIT IT IS!!!!!!!!!!!
What the FUCK????? Who the hell does that dumbshit think he is??? Like all the other "WANNABE" tuners for real cars-He has no clue...:confused: :confused: :confused: I call those things SUPER-DUPER-DOGFIGHTER-TRANSFORMING PHOTON BLASTER bodykits!!!:D :D :D :D
It makes me :mad: that people want to get into the trend and realease something like that for a model kit. I'd rather paint my newly finished ITR with real Dogshit and dip it in a tub of Future floor wax to seal in the smell and get the same results. Thats how bad I think this kit is. Sorry for so many expletives in this post-I'm usually very mild mannered, but this draws the line when he should have his brain examined for designing SHIT like that!!!

No Competition here Chris!!!!! No worries about Jet intakes.

This was the second craft that the movie researchers proposed to use in Stars Wars Episode 0 " The Early Years". As we all know, the movie got cancelled and the researchers fired!
Fly, you' re kits are what I call very realistic modifications to an existing car, to create a scale model of an existing car.
What the other guy shows us through the magazine is his own interpretation of what could be. Question is, will someone buy it. From the reaction here, you should be comfy now and keep on proceeding. Business is always a risk, right ;)
Keep on the good work man and hang in there, you'll be rewarded afterwards!!!

Why would you even worry about him. Your stuff is lightyears ahead of him. Everyone here even agrees. BTW How's your supra coming along, haven't been on for a while and might have missed it.
