All it takes to build a model car is patience. Its like a real pro-touring vehicle except a lot smaller.
This Artwork Section is one of my favorite threads. I may not post much, however, I'm always checking it out.

really, it was the 68/69 GTO that i consider my first "favorite" muscle car ya know? you pick THE one, i guess. cars just look plain sexy in black, but the GTO just has the body for black ... your car is sexy sexy. I dunno if it is that they are a little larger or what. anyway, not only smaller, but cheaper. i think a lot of it is my dexterity and functionality of the car too ... that define the word patience. i'm probably not going to scratch build tubular and coil over suspension because i just don't see the point (i think this is personal interest too of course) the car isn't going to do anything but sit on my shelf. and my fingers just won't DO work that small sometimes. those two things are really limiting my patience currently. by the time i get done working on a real car (or two, cause the Mustang is being ignorant right now too) ... try to keep up with my drawing and website ... and build other websites blah blah blah. building a model comes in low on the agenda. still, i'm trying. i'll post some pics of the paint pretty soon.
