Alba (239)

:)

In lack of the "real" GS-kit by Revell, I've started wih this old kit.

In the forground my first CH-53 (84+73). The color matches not to the 85+12 because its green olive (olive). The 85+12 (...

A picture of a part of my built kits

Missing decals on the door - keep that in mind too.

This picture is out of the pilots personell album I got from his wife.

Did some painting on the chassis too. I only worked with gloss and semi gloss black.

in the cargo bay of the original CH-53 GA

:) I like them.

That's in the box. Let's start that sweet car :)

Left: optimized - Right: stock oob

That turn signals are not optimal so far. I think I have to paint some more kinda white.

Lowered the Chassis. Next will be the black paint to the rims.

Sweet :)

There is not a lot in the box. It should be a quick successful built

Making some process. It is not perfect but I accept all the imperfections and only want to have this thing done.

...the Truck waits for it's bumper :)

Only missing the turn signals underneath the headlights.

Get out of my way! Such a great design. Sadly, the Formula is not available as a kit. I'd like to have it too.

Second chance. Stripping of the color with Dowanol.

1979 Pontiac Formula Firebird Convertible (1/25 Revell #6222) yellow

Painted the base color for the interior. Only accents to do. I'll go with pure maroonish color. White seats have could b...

The socket (in the picture right bottom) is handmade out of wood

Last challenge: transform the lower rear lights (1/24) to 1/25 to fit to the original.

The PMD seats and dashboard are on their place

So here we go. The first step as usual: putting together the parts into groups and prepare them to paint.

The rear light at the buttom will be fitted into the kit.

The air deflectors at the doors are hand made as you can guess.

:D

This is what I got. The important part was the rear window for my blue one.

So far so good.

7 months later (!) I managed to put the decals on it. I drawed them end of last year easily. Love it :)

I love that front. At last, I added metal stickers on the nose an the rear. They suck. What a tiny crappy work, when the...

Here wo go. The next Corvette on the table. I choose the C5. When it's done, I have one Corvette of each generation. Whe...

THis is the original, my Beetle. Called ED

The model :D

I'm not satisfied with the stance of the front wheels. On the left side it's pretty cool lowered but the wheel is to muc...

Here it is!

The body at the beginning

First steps are done. The groups are ready to paint

This is, what's in the box.

The Revell wrecker as base

The content of the box

Let's start the C4 Convertible

btw. This C4 has the wrong rims. They came 1988 on the market.

Here we go. The next convertible for my collection. As usual it will be silver with black interior.

I like that hard top a lot. The main reason, why I bought this AMt Prestige kit.

That's in the box

Ready for paint

The engine parts aren't chromed anymore (right upper corner). The most parts are ready to paint.

I'm happy with it

All the parts are ready to paint.

ONly added some side windows

Took a current picture of my kits. 9 of them are unbuilt and mostly still sealed, 8 boxes contenting started kits, one i...

That's in the box.

Added better tires and side windows.

Painted the silver parts. The rest will be or has to be black

20 years later

As long as it shines, the imperfections could be seen. Good enough :D

Looks like there are not that much parts :)

#6359

Here we go. That's in the box. Some custom parts will fill the spare boxes ;)

I bought this kit already started on ebay. This is what I got.

This kit was repainted from silver to this beautiful blue

The start is done. Sorted the unneeded parts out, added some stock parts and already put the main parts together

The Goal for the kit
