That was a brand new blank canvas.......M reg,1994-5 I think. First one in the country at the time,first time I drove one too,I didn't get to drive the Scania being only 17 at the time.
That's what I did back then......apprentice vehicle mechanic then into commercial body repair........then onto bigger stuff,aircraft for 12 years.....Airbus A380,they don't come bigger than that,wouldn't want to prep and paint that for a living ;D

Are there any American/Australian muscle car enthusiasts able to suggest a similar car to build into a '73 Ford falcon XB GT,maybe info on 1:18 model kit manufacturers I can look into it would be greatly appreciated.
I've looked at mustangs,chargers,chevelle's,a Torino talladega and a fairlane so far........last 2 close but still needs major surgery.
PM me anything of interest,there's some items listed on eBay.com that don't always appear in a worldwide search........no idea why.

That sounds like a question for Clonehead or Reconsgt. They are big muscle car guys. I like em, just don't know much about em.

The rock thinks so,missus posted it on twitter and tagged him.......got quite a popular response on there.

Decided to rip apart my mandalore the ultimate wip,hadn't bothered with it in months and it was bugging me. previous wip pictured alongside Artus Lok (mandalore the vindicated wip)

Upper body evolutions mandalore
Lower body crisis fodder figure.
Chest armour modified clone trooper and epoxy.
Belt from a GiJoe snake eyes

Plenty of epoxy putty for sculpting. 2nd lot of sculpting in white......previous days sculpting now in satin black,apart from the high neck guard/collar we won't see it all until final paint apps.

After this and clone wars entries,I'll detail Artus Lok

Thanks DD,way more an improvement on the first knock up.......got another wip to post. Having a go at a xenomorph.

Not 100% sure which version i'll go with,thought it was worth a laugh to see what I can do. Probably go with the classic warrior.

At very much Mr T........first item I remember working on was a 1/6 alien statuette,want to test myself and see what I can do at 1:18 scale. Plus all these colonial marines and alien/Prometheus projects from several members........fancied having a go,and the cons test entries are almost done.

Plus the mandalore has been bugging me for a while,wasn't happy with the basics but now it's coming along how it should.
