Ken's Car Stuff Fabrication.

[killalldude]

I think a color besides red, silver or black would be cool. There are too many red ZR-1 Vette's. I'd say go for blue!

 

[Ken]

I don't know, the Blue ZR1 to me is just too original if you kind of get what I'm saying.

[The Compensator]

Nope, I don't get it :o

[Flo]

red with white spots. lol.

 

no serious, yellow!

[TDUFREAK500]

Red, they look sick in red

[The Compensator]

Blue!

[Ken]

:hmmm: I guess Blue it is. My Cobra will have to be Red then. :p

[Ken]

Yep got another model, my friend gave this one to me. He noticed that I like old Z cars and he had this model but never finished it.

And I also got an extra set of wheels. :D

[The Compensator]

Nice Z! How many WIP models do you have? I guess a lot :p

[Ken]

Nice Z! How many WIP models do you have? I guess a lot :p

 

Just 3. The ZR1, 240Z, and Cobra.

Oh my god YES. You must teach me the way of model fabrication sensei.

[Guest MrLolololXD]

Nice cars Ken!

 

Anyone that does build or is interested in building model cars, check out this site:

Hobby Search Model Car Store

 

I've bought a few things from them in the past from my model building days (and I can say by reading through this thread that I want to start making them again, if I can find the time...) and from other places around the interwebz, including ebay. Some of the scale stuff you can find out there is amazing!

:omg:

Hey Matt, Work Emotion CR Kai (Model Car) Aoshima S Parts|No.133 :sohappy:

Oh my god YES. You must teach me the way of model fabrication sensei.

 

If you buy a model kit like this and want to customize it, (Also have the time and patience) I'd gladly help you if you want me to.

 

Nice cars Ken!

 

Thanks man. :)

 

 

- I also noticed the rear fender flares are I guess what you can say "too fat", so I cut them down a little bit and now they look just about even compared to the front ones.

[Soundwave]

You did a great job Ken, it looks really nice. :)

[Prophecy]

Awesome work, looks just like the 2003 cobra :)

[TDUFREAK500]

Nice work Ken, it looks great

[The Compensator]

Nice work. It turned out to be hundred times better than the old one.

[killalldude]

That looks really nice man. I like that you really take the details into account (LEDs, custom bodywork, etc.). Beautiful shade of red you used as well. :)

[Sr20vet]

looks better than the old one but were is the wipers ?

[Ken]
