Hi everyone!

Hi everyone, I was browsing the net and I found this forum. Let me tell ya, I've been searching for a forum dedicated to car modeling like yours for a long time and I'm happy that I found it. I've been modeling for a few years now and have recently started up my own site, it's not done yet and there's going to be a lot more cars put up in the next few weeks. The models on my site are done by both my friend and I.

Here's the site http://members.rogers.com/pitlane39/

Could you please give me some feedback on what you think? Thanks

Thanks everyone for your kind words. I only started the site a few weeks ago so I haven't had the chance to put up pictures of all our cars yet. Here is a list of built cars that will be put up soon...

Tamiya Toyota Supra (modified)
Tamiya Nissan skyline gtr34 (Stock)
Fujimi Nissan skyline gtr33 (stock)
Revell Acura Nsx (modified)
Fujimi Honda integra type r (modified)
Fujimi Honda civic type r (modified)
Fujimi Honda crx mugen (stock)
Tamiya Toyota Supra GT street version (modified)

Here's a list of cars currently being built

Fujimi Honda civic
Fujimi rx7 fc
Tamiya honda s2000
Fujimi veilside s15
Tamiya nissan 350z

Here's a list of cars that are not built yet, but will be soon

Fujimi veilside s14
fujimi mazda rx7 fd
Tamiya Toyota supra
aoshima cwest rx7

Hopefully, all these cars will be finished and put up on the site within the next few months.

And for the liscense plate question, I found that using decal solution works the best. It allows for the decal to conform around the plate

Nice work!

I specialy like the Toyota Levin (Corolla in Puerto Rico). This car is very popular around here.

Exactly, what kit you use for that car?

To Juan

The Toyota Levin kit is the Turbo Levin from the Initial D series of cars from Fujimi.

First of all welcome apex_N1.
I have spent some time in your site and I was impressed not only by the quality of your models but also by the photos.
Nice angels giving the idea of being real cars in real landscapes.

Great work.

Once again, thanks for the kind words everyone. I mainly build Import cars, but I do build European and other cars. I'm not a big fan of putting large decals and designs on my car, nothing against people who like that, but that's just not my style

And to Mx100. I am chinese, but I'm not from Hong Kong. I was born in Toronto, Canada
