1956 Ford Thunderbird
Peterpools replied to Peterpools's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Scott Have to plead my case. For me, it's all about scale and 1/25 - 1/24 is a large scale. I know what is considered large scale does vary from the class of model being built - but there is so much more available in the popular car scale. Maybe we just should look at it another way the other way for a GB and say as long as the figures are large scale, it's good to go. Of course, Ernie will have the final say. -

Phil Could be said any better and how true. When you're ready jump in and join the party. Any thoughts of what you might want to build? -

Ernie Thanks for posting the photo - absolutely gorgeous. The kit does does with the hardtop and most likely I'll paint and finish it and keep it next to the T Bird in the display case. on -

HI Jeff Thank you for the offer down the road when I build the Vette. The Sunfire yellow I purchased from Gravity Paints (Spain) does show the correct body style Vette on the label and is listed for the "67 model. I doubled checked my references and yes the correct code for the "67 model is: Sunfire yellow 984. I should be good to go down the road. -

Carl Never actually thought of it that way but it is a cool idea. I was thinking of car models themselves but both ideas would work. -
Kriss Looks good to me.

Thanks Carl Just a nice way of changing the pace and type of models that hit the bench. I remember your last car build, a Tamiya Super 7 Lotus - I thoroughly enjoy following your build. Maybe the next GB might be a subject that will allow for some car entries. 🤞 -

Dave Sounds pretty cool. Die caste, whether kit or prebuilt are a way to start and maintain a collection. -
GUS WOW, absolutely a stellar build and the weathering is so very realistic and perfectly done. Just a brilliant build. Agree 100%, Tamiya's incredible engineering is the benchmark and bar and their F-14 is a shining example. I still have a few more Tomcats in the stash and will be eventually building all of them.

Thanks Gus heading over now

Hasegawa Fw-190A5... or 6.
Peterpools replied to GazzaS's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Gaz Isn't that always the way - just not enough time. Paint work does look mighty good on the wings, prop and hub. -

Carl Amazing work and progress on your Big Cat. Keep plugging away, you're going to cross the line in the nick of time. -
John Fantastic build - nothing like a unique aircraft to add to the collection. I have to admit, I've never seen the kit actually built before and she looks awesome.

Anagrand 1/72 Martin XB-51/Gilbert XF-120 finished
Peterpools replied to JohnB's topic in Non LSM 'WIP
John Absolutely a stellar build. Awesome work on taming a very tough kit and a killer NMF.🏆 -
WOW, brilliant work on the markings..

Peterpools replied to KevinM's topic in LSM 1/48 Work in Progress
Kev Great choice of Eduard RAY kits - I am quite found of their kits, as they are exceptional builds and look so good when completed. MM enamels, wish I could find a good supplier, as they use to be my number one paint - still is when I have a bottle to use. -
Trumpeter TBD-1 Devastator
Peterpools replied to Clunkmeister's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Ernie Still so hard to believe the kit is actually here. I'm in no rush and will; be waiting for the eventually to be released Quinta cockpit set plus some Eduard goodies and then I'll be digging in. -
Hasegawa Fw-190A5... or 6.
Peterpools replied to GazzaS's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Gaz Nice work on the masks - markings and paint work are going to look awesome. And those rivets - they are the perfect touch and bring the 190 up to a whole new level.
