Hello to you all!

First off let me introduce myself. My name is Russ aka Spoonman Dos.
I bumped into this site while surfing the net, and I am impressed with everything. I'm a car guy, but the model cars are what brings me here. They all look great. Keep up the good work. I'll post some of my creations when I figure out how to resize the picture. I look forward to my stay, and will share what I know, and hope to learn from you.

Spoonman Dos.


The kit is a Tamiya 240/180SX
Testors True Blue Pearl, Scale Auto Carbon Fiber decal on the GT wing, and Aero mirrors. The wing, mirrors, and wheels come from a Tamiya Calsonic R33 Skyline. Intercooler, exhaust was custom made, and a modified suspension.

Sorry about the size and pic. quality.

Looks great regardless!

What did you use for the lenses on the pop-ups? They look pretty slick!

Where to start? Yes It's a 180SX. Scale Motorsports is what I meant (thanks Fly). You guys are quick with the responses, I'm not use to that.
As far as the contest, I might have to re-take my pics and submit.

The headlights were with an exacto. I used spare plastic for the headlight housing, and extra lights backed up with foil paper.

I gotta take better Pics first. I also have a Slammed Toyota Aristo w/the same type of mesh wheels, a New Civic Type R with my Spoon Touch, WCR Impreza, Turbo Revell ITR, JDM ITR, and the 180SX.

I'm getting off-line errors. Looks like we raped your free bandwidth! :o

But I did see something about an NSX, didn't I?
