Made since last post

Been awhile since the last post. 11/08/06 according to history. Time flies even if you ain't having fun. Figured I'd post these before computer house keeping.

HW's somtimes does something almost right. Still gotta screw up the wheels and wheel wells. But the 250LM made a nice 250P with opening decks.

The drawing was posted here a couple of years ago in a concept contest. Early this year I got enough pieces to make the concept. However I had to use a later model front end than the '70 I wanted. So I was never happy with it still don't have a '70 front end to re-do it.

All the Longnoses together.http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/9669/1001342dv1.th.jpg (http://img519.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1001342dv1.jpg)

Theres probably more minor things done and more in the works.

Beautiful work! :) What scale are these?

Beautiful work! :) What scale are these?


Thanks.........Most are 1/64thish....The Alfa's 1/43. The 335 is about 1/38.

1/64! whoaw.....That's really small!!! I can't even do mods right on 1/18s, let alone anything smaller hehe:p. Very nice job!!!

I've got a few 1/18 & 1/32. A lot of 1/43. Most, however, are 1/64. The main reasons for this size are space, costs and variations. I mainly mod the 1/64 because they don't cost as much when I screw up. The variations of the body styles lend themselves to more creative combinations. Like the "GP" Longnose. That was a combo of a HWs Torpedo Jones, Low Flo, and a '71 Charger "Torpedo." None of which are available in anything but 1/64.

^ Yeah I agree, the smaller scales are less costly and generally look good as well. But I prefer the 1/18s because I like to play around the cars ie doors, trunk, hood etc:p...

and, may be GMP has some of the models you mentioned in 1/18? I'm not sure, but I know that they make a lot of domestic classics..

These are the parts that went into the GP. I can't imagine what it would have cost to get something like a Mercedes SSK, Some type of old Alfa GP and a 67 Charger to cut up; in 1/18 scale.

I really like the detail on 1/18 The ones I have I either got at a great deal, or they are ones I really love like the Daytona Cobra or GT40 MkII.

Nice pic! :) As to the prices, they're either gonna to be very highly priced or not produced at all, since it's unlikely that they'll be mass produced due to a relatively low demand...

I also either only collect the models I really want or the ones I could get a great deal on. Or sometimes both :p
