Like it a lot !!!! Good work !

Thanks my friend,
I always liked the style of this car and even though its not a car I ever had I'll keep it displayed in my model garage "cause its a cool lookin' car. And a pretty decent kit too!
The pictures really don't do it justice. My little Kodak doesn't seem to be able to deal with the pearl glitter very well. It looks even better "live"

Nice build! I'd love to see it in person! we have a few contests this fall in utah that if you were so inclined, you could join me at!

Bill Newcomer
Very nice. What make of engine is under the 3 deuces?

Robert W Martel
Bill, It's a Cadillac engine that came optional. I built the flathead V8 and display it in my model garage showroom.
d Hadley, Oh boy, I sure would like to go to a model show. Never been to one. There aren't any in my local area that I know of. I WISH !!!!! lol

d hadley
we'd love to have you! there is a great group of modelers up here. they're all freindly and the competition is a lot of fun!

That's great! You're right about the paint effect not showing so well, try using a flash even in daylight, it helps 👍

I bet you do have a fun bunch of modelers there. Man, there's nothing I'd like better, I know it would be fun. DANG !!!
Munkeysut,
Well, I jut tried shooting the latest build [57 Chrysler] in direct sunlight. No matter how I did them they looked terrible, too bright! Lately I have replaced the old fluorescent work light with LED and it seem to do better. I just don't have the greatest camera. I'm in a poorly lit room, except for in the afternoon when the sun shines in. I'm going to post those now, see what you think.
