My models from Belgium

Hi,

Following my first thread " Belgian tuning " I present some of my kits.
Sorry for the bad quality of the pics but they were taken in a modeling exhibition ( dark rooms ). I'll send better pictures in a short future.
That's all VW's, sorry but I only realise kits from the Porsche-VW-Audi group.

I'll explain all the components of each car later.

Nice collection! I like the two tone van with the 30" woofers, I can just see that canvas roof popping up every time the bass hits!:eek:

Damn!!! I'd love to take a ride in the VW with the "BOOM"!!! I'm feeling the bug with the "BLOWN BRAINS" [sun roof] Very nice. Thanks for sharing the pics.:flash:

What are those wheels on that brown Beetle? They look a lot like 3 piece Porsche wheels.

Anyone know if those(or something similar) are available in any aftermarket sets? If they are 18" then I'd like to get a set for my Italeri 993 turbo to replace those awful blobs which came with the kit.

:frog: those look real good:frog: i like the bug and the flamin bus :licker: the flame job looks perfect

Those are BEAUTIFUL!!! I especially like the Silver flamed bus!!!:cool: :cool: :cool:

Great models! I particularly like the 2 VW bus/camper.

All looking very well done....i'd love a ride in the BOOM VW!!

Just a tip....i think they would look even better if you painted the black around the windows. The silver VW is crying out for it

They all look good. The same remark as P-Man I'd like to say, but the split rear window Beetle is very nice!!

Hi,

Once again, thanks for all your comments.

1°: About the rims of the split-window beetle, they come from a Maisto 1-18 Porsche Boxter. I don't know if it exists in aftermarket but here is a link to a french shop www.tuning18.com where you could find a lot of rims and other accessories 1-18 scale.

2°: About the black around my windows, I know, shame on me:rolleyes: . I'm always afraid when I have to paint it. It's the last step before finishing the car and I'm always excited to see it finished.
I'ts why I do a lot of old cars because they don't have it.
I'll try to remove the windows of the new beetle and paint it using masking-tape.

Sorry it's french, but If you don't understand it's a teardrop trailer that I'm scratch building .

Best regards.
