new to the AF Model Forum.. thought I'd show a few of my best (warning lotsa pics)

[tigeraid]

Hi guys, new to the forum, been modelling for a while now, just started putting a serious effort forth... here are a few of my favourite projects recently completed, I appreciate any comments OR helpful critiques. Thanks!

This is a model of my real life car, a '94 Caprice 9C1 (cop car)... compare the real to the model (the blue on the second model pic is a reflection from my monitor, sorry ):






--

'55 Chevy Gasser




--

Big John Mazmanian Willys



--

'91 Nissan 240sx that my buddy gave me since he decided not build it after his real life 240sx... Do you think I got a little carried away?





--

'62 Biscayne with 1994 Impala SS wheels




--

And finally, my first successful attempt at proper engine bay detailing... distributor, battery cables, heater hoses and power brake vacuum.... what's everyone think?

Welcome to AF!! You're 1:1 caprice is hott!! I always wanted one of those body styles since the impala. The model looks awsome!! What are the rims from? Models by Tony by chance? Can we get more pics of the sx prostreet please? I'd like to know how you set that up. Keep up the great work and hope to see more form you soon!:-D

i like that 240, with a little more experience with fine detailing you will master modeling, nice collection you have there and welcome to the very addictive forum, check out the faq and tutorial section, they are very helpful.

The cop wheels are from modelhaus.com... really kills me on the shipping, being in Canada, but the only other possible place to get them is off a fullsize truck model--which I don't think I've ever seen...

Those are the only pics I have of the 240, and to be honest it looks kinda rough underneath. I used a narrowed Ford 9" and slicks from some old drag model I had, with a sort of modified truck arm 2-link kinda setup... but cutting up the stock floorpan was a pain in the ass--if I had to do it over again I'd definetely take more time to measure.
