Hi Frank, thanks, yes they all are precisely 1/24 !
I have around 350 1/43 kits (most to build) and around 90 1/24 (most to builmd too,

), my brother has around 60 1/24 kits half built half not !

Thank you Sasa!
well, this audi is probably the worst kit I've ever built !!
but with many hours and a little bit of Yoga...

that's not the best reji, that's even the worst, but this car was the most incredible Group B running and I hjad to get it among my other rally cars.

here is some cb-com products:
http://www.hobby-carmodel.com
but most simple is cb-com himself:
http://www.cbcom-rally.com
but you have to know these products are very very bad, with much imperfections and uncorrections !! (for example wheels are a block of resin with a decal to represent the brakes !! brrrrr....)
but to get a basis for the megane, he is the one.
but if you really want to build a 1/24 rally megane, take a look at www.renaissance-models.com
the best one is there !

more models to come, maybe this evening but I am not sure, I have a meeting in my pilots association to prepare the French Hill Climb Championship event in which organization we take place and in which too all pilots will run !
I don't know if I will have time after to make some other photos of our models.
but I will try !

bye
thanks for looking and for your words
Bye

Hi blubaja,
thanks for your kind words.
yes I have other blue & yellow stars cars !

but not built unfortunatly, except one 1998 Safari version (I have to make some pics of it).
I have no legacy in my 1/24 collection (cos' of 4 in my 1/43 collection!).
here is a link to a thread where you will find pics of 1/43 legacy.

Nice models guys!
I've been thinking of getting one of the Renaissance Transkits, what is the quality like to work with?

Thank you.
well, Renaissance is for rally kits the best you can find !
Resin is really good quality, PE is good and fine, decals too...
really great products !

I know him (them in fact that's two persons) and sometimes have contact to give him informations or get some, one of his prototypist (correct english word ?? I mean person that create model to be mold) is a friend of mine and we are members of the same modellers club.

In fact, according to me, Renaissance is the only reliable 1/24 rally kits and transkit dealer with studio 27 (not always, often some errors on TK).

I think you would especially enjoy his BMW M3 E30, a very nice model !
his 306 maxi is quite perfect (a rally specialist as me I always find some imperfections...) and his megane maxi is beautiful !

the only bad thing I could say would be the rollcage molded in one part!
sometimes it is damaged or disformed ! but nothind really being a big problem.

but for you one problem could be the price, recent kits are around 120 euros, then I suppose around $160... plus P&P !

models normally to come soon at Renaissance:
Peugeot 405 1988 Pikes Peak hill climb
Ford RS 200 Gr. B 1986 championship
Peugeot 205 T16 1987 Pikes Peak hill climb

he had started project on Metro 6R4 but stoped it... I don't really know why, except that there was too much work and Etienne Dhont (one of the two associates) prefered working on more other smaller and quicker projects.

I know he has been selling some Moto GP transkits for a few months.

I normally should meet Renaissance next time in September or October.
If you have any request or proposal to do, I would transfer them to him with pleasure !

bye
Phil

A great collection, the Safari Lancer would be a great subject for a diorama :-)
When you see Mr Renaissance please beg him to continue on the 6R4, even the kit has to be a bit more expensive it is a car that needs to be modelled and there is noone better to do it than him

Hello !
Renaissance gave up the 6R4 as it seems, but that's Profil 24 that did it !!
you can find the preview here at domino-model in Belgium:
