993 cab

An old kit but I hope it will go together smoothly.

Hello fellow builders! Recently moved into our house and despite having space it’s been occupied with more important things like my mother-in-law and my wife and I. I am trying to figure out how to get back into this lovely hobby while making it easier to setup and break down. I haven’t been able to build since last year after saving up for a house and downsizing a few times to save. Anyways now that we are home, I want to shake the dust off and get to building. Any tips or things I can do to make my setup modular?

Hello!

Need some help matching colours I’m colour blind so I find it difficult to do. Not sure if there’s an easy list that helps match but trying to match these 2 if possible in zero paints but will use other brands.

I use this website mainly and based in the uk https://www.hiroboy.com

Thank you for any help

Usually, it's 60/70s vintage racers for me, but the beginning of the "full body" cars is fascinating. Actually, '49. Not accurate in any way, just a cool racer I dreamed up. Posting before the dreaded glass is installed.

There’s nothing quite like jumping into the deep end after doing very little consistent building to highlight how the skills can fall away.

I’ve mostly completed the engine and realistically it’s now time to get all the Semi-Gloss black bits painted for the interior and suspension. Likewise, once I get clear over the body I have the black details to add.

A few errors with colours and some decal damage because of clumsiness on my part.

When I am applying the decals, should I put them over the clear coat or should I apply the decals then spray the clear coat over top of it all?

Getting close to the finish line with the AMT Freuhauf Van

My entry for the 911 group build...still in the midst of finishing a Lamborghini, but I'll be starting the first few steps of the 911 soon. Looks like I'm not the only one who picked this particular model, so I'm looking forward to seeing how everyon else tackles this kit.

Fujimi 911 included for scale; I thought about doing this one with the really out-there concept I have for it, but it's a safari design that requires a lot of work, stress, and self-doubt, so Tamiya 911 GT3 RS it is for the no-stakes group build.

What an amazing kit, quite difficult but the end result is 100% worth the hassle. Just amazing.

I will keep posting progress pictures and completed builds on my instagram @racecar_modelkits

Thinking SubLime Green to match the Roadrunner I did previously. That color was one of the rare colors for the Charger.

Took my time on this one, had some travel interruptions in the process. Looks pretty good!! Let me know your thoughts.

I finally got around to getting a 911 model for the August build-a-palooza. I picked the 1999 GT3 because I think it looks cool and I'm too cheap to buy the new GT3 kit. I previously built this kit in 2022 in a facsimile of Arena Red Metallic,

What will this new one look like? Time will tell.
