Those looks awesome! I wish I could do that.

My problem with me putting together models, is impatience. I end up getting glue and paint EVERYWHERE. My brother was always much better at it.

Nice work on the models...great paint jobs.

Do you use an airbrush or spray can?

the kits vary usually between 10-15 for like revell-monogram kits to 35-40 for the nicer Tamiya kits. the only bad thing about tamiya kits are a lack of mustangs. they mostly do japanese and euopean and italian cars. which isnt too bad considering the cars i like most after mustangs are ferraris. i have an enzo and 360 sdyer i am working on right now. i use airbrush and aerisol(sp) cans. the colorchange paints are cans from duplicolor. i only use duplicolor when it comes to cans b/c they are automotive touchup paints so the paint sprays on very fine and smooth. if it is a color i cant find from them i break out the aircompressor and airbrush

That's a standard Maisto model if I'm not mistaken.
