I was thinking about building models of FABO member's cars or any model Kit they wanted during the winter. I'd probably charge around 20 or so to build it. If anyone would like a model of their car let me know. Here are a couple I've built.

not a bad idea
how long have you been building models for?

a few things you would want to look into are BMF and black washes on the chrome to give it more depth

also, just wondering, the duster, is that painted or did it come molded in green?

(feel free to shoot me an email of you have any questions)
 
11 years. I've tried BMF, me and it dont get along, Black washing I'm ok at I just didn't do it on these. It's Model Master's J6 Sassy Grass Green it's about $7 a can. It's modeled after my grandfather's 1 owner '71 Twister. I still have to get stripes and a correct grill.
 
I might want to get in on this, lets see more advertising :drinkers:
Heck :D after shipping that would be a good deal:thumbrig:
If I wanted it up soon, to have one dun :scratch: because I don't have the time
Our pool league keeps me on my feet and away from the house

I sit here to long as it is, my mine and eye's need the exersizs.

You just made me want to spend time on my model Kegan :wav:
