Welcome to AF.

your models look pretty good to me. It's nice to see another person from hawaii here. if you get your stuff locally, where do you get it from?

Thanks everyone. The only reason why I say crap is because I look at how much detail you folks put into them. I was reading a post on how to make an intercooler, and I was blown away. The thing look sooo real. When I tried to make mine, I just used scrap pieces to make it. It looke dnothing like the one that was shown here. Even the interiors on some of the kits I seen here are unbelieveable. Mine are only one tone....black.

Hey magicmanjk808, I get most of my stuff from HLJ, but I get some kits from Pacific Hobbyist on King Street. I have also bougt stuff from Hobby Co. in Pearlridge too. What about you? Where do you get your stuff from? Did you post any of your work here too?

I get most stuff from hlj and hobbysearch, but i get my paints and stuff from hobby co. pacific hobbyist is a little too expensive for me. i was hoping you would say a shop i didn't know of yet, but i guess not. and no, i haven't posted pics of my work on here. just getting back into modeling after a 12 year break. last model i did was when i was 8 and i don't got it. soon there will be pics of the altezza im working on.

Hey Oahu represent!! ex-r, nice Trueno! By the way, how is Pacific Hobbyist?

ex-r · #22 09-27-2002, 10:01 PM

Thanks Honoturtle, theyare alittle pricey, and there selection is ok. I haven't been there in a while though. Magicman post some pics of your altezza whe you are done.

nice job ex-r! just wondering, where did you get those old school SSR rims for your ae86? I don't think I've ever seen those come out in any model kits.

integra818 · #24 09-27-2002, 11:39 PM

Nice cars(and bikes),who makes that del sol???

ex-r · #25 09-28-2002, 03:42 AM

Bri g, I got the rims from a friend of mine. I believe it came off a 70's toyota. It was the extra set that came with the car. integra818, the del sol is made by Fujimi.

OK jay@af, sorry I took so long to post the picture. I tried to make the spark plug wires, but you can hardly see them.

Jonno · #27 10-01-2002, 08:05 AM

Nice models, anything else that I could say has been said...

Maybe you should paint them a colour that stands out, like red or blue.
Just a thought...
