discussion Revell '68 Dodge Charger R/T

[Dave Jay]

Hi peeps, here is my first car build ever (used to do aircraft normally and afv's sometimes).


I've never shown my models to anyone else other than those who enter my home, so be gentle with me but honest too!


I have a 1/12 2010 GT500 Shelby on the go at the mo, will post pics soon when she's completed.


Some of the pictures are a bit blurry, taken with my tablet, still trying to get used to it!View attachment 122007

Dave I don't do cars but I can't see anything wrong with that, very very nice mate.

Very very nice!

Great job Dave. Your Charger looks awesome in that orange colour.

 

[Dave Jay]

Thanks for that Joe. I spent a while deliberating over the orange, I envisaged that people who initially saw it would say...'Oh look, it's a Dukes of Hazzard car', which was a comment made by my brother, I mean what does he know, he likes Italian metal and refers to American cars as 'Yank tanks', he needs re educating!


I'm glad you like the colour, I'm happy with it too, it certainly stands out in the cabinet.


Thank you for the positive feedback.


Dave

That is very nice indeed Dave

 

[Dave Jay]

That is very nice indeed Dave

Thanks Ian, much appreciated.


I've always doubted if my model making was good enough but with all this positive feedback I have the inspiration to keep going but with the aim of always improving my build quality with each build I do.


There must be a point where the level of improvement kind of plateaus? I wonder.

 

[Guest]

Great job.

Thanks mate. Wouldn't it be great if we could turn our models into reality, no so great if you've got a model of a Bismarck or a B52 In your cabinet!

Thanks Dougie for the praise.
