Oh my god!

Six projects at once ! If I did that, I wouldn't get any of them done. I am already struggling to finish one model!

Ah , well,I m a mltiple-projects man myself !

I prefer to build on different models at the same time, gives you a lot of variation , but unfortunately takes waay too ong to finish one correctly !

Do you really have to do that to the focus??? Poor little rally car will be a rally car no more, why, why?! Sniffle, Sniffle.......you bastard! J/k But i would have done it the rally car version. Good luck with it though.

Enjoy your car modeling projects! I'm "modeling" 5 cars myself (the kind that has to be tagged, titled and licensed).

i think we dont feel like we are doing anything unless we are under pressure!!! so i can sympathyse with that!

I myself have just decided to enter the v-twin race series next year! 14 race weekends all over the UK! and now have to start preparing my suzuki, estimated costs for 1 years racing are around £18,000 (about $28000) so any sponsors would be great, or i might limit myself to just a few races if i cant get any sponsors, time to grovel to my director!!! lol

well here is my baby, took about a week of cutting and filling to make a GSXR 1000 race fairing fit my SV650s, looks great now, at least proves i can model in the real world of motors too!!!
getting it sent of for the custom paint soon, cant wait, at the moment its the first sv650 with gsxr bodywork that is also road legal and retains all standard equipment! anyone can throw everything away and start from the begging, i am considering haveing a copy made so i can sell em if enuf people are interested!
