I've built many models over the years from plastic to diecast but I decided to take a kit now and then just to sit down and do one up as a project.  I know I am not as good as the people that enter contests but I do this in fun so as long as I am happy that's the best part.  I won't frustrate myself as a hobby is supposed to relieve stress.  Anyway have fun looking at what I am working on and what I have finished in the plastic and diecast realm of model kits.  There will also be pre-decorated and diecast model kits listed here as I did some painting for awhile but it is best for me to work on prepainted diecast kits.

I only really entered a local contest once and that was years and years back, ages ago it feels like - it was the Monogram Rampage 1/24 1969 Camaro model kit in which I got an honorable mention for.  Remember finding that kit at a drug store on sale because it was missing the decal sheet.  It would be nice to have kept that model car over the ages to see how I would do with the same kit with my skills now.

Thanks to everyone for their comments and encouragement!!!

Builds for 2005

First Project

Revell 1/25 1994 Impala SS - Finished August 2, 2005

This one I was going for a bright orange but ended up with a Rustic Orange look but I think it's a nice ride.  A good start after building prepainted diecast kits and not building a plastic kit for ages especially one that I painted up myself.  Paint is Testors Spray Enamel.

Second Project

Revell 1/25 1950 Chevy Panel Monster Truck - Finished August 8, 2005

This 1/25 Grave Digger Monster Truck kit from Revell I got without the decals so I am building it up as a fictional monster truck.  I heard about a local car show and contest nearby so I worked on this to get this finished.  I know I probably won't get anything but there is no harm in trying.  The Testors Primer Gray paint on it already looks good so I decided to stick with this color.  I found some Midnight-Z decals so I'll call it a Prototype Midnight-Z 1950 Chevy Panel Monster Truck.

Third Project

Testors Fujimi 1/24 Isuzu Impulse Turbo - Finished September 23, 2005

This kit was built stock with a lime gold metal flake paint job plus some custom touches.  I found some ARII wheels that I got to fit on the car to give it a different look.  This was mostly built to give it a mild custom street look without going full out so I tinted the rear hatch and windows, custom rear lights plus added a tuner exhaust pipe and chrome wheels.

Builds for 2006

Mostly diecast predecorated kits, nothing really exciting to post here.  Look for another plastic model kit project for 2007 when I can get the chance to paint again outside and get my ideas together.

Builds for 2007-2010

I decided to focus on prepainted diecast car and truck kits to avoid paint and glue hassles. 

For 2009, I've collected a few 1/32 diecast kits which I found at a discount outlet cheap and decided on building those for something simple and different.  My plans for 2010 include building up a few more 1/24 scale prepainted diecast kits and working on the 1/32 scale kits when I have some free time.
