Current Projects:

Audi A4 look-a-like toy repaint

I went to my local dollar store and found these cars and got the idea to scrap them or Repaint them and customize them.


Below is a picture of my diorama of a garage, i will be working on stenciling a name in the red striped area, maybe something like "M&Motors Center" or something along those lines, the full diorama is made of wood i found around the house and its dimensions are 24"long, x 12"  deep and 9" High. it came out pretty good so far, and i hope to add more to it. this will probably will be the background for most of my pictures.


 

Size comparison

 


 

Car Trailer scratch build

The trailer is being composed mainly of Scrap tree parts from previous model kits, and wood i had lying around the house


 


The Audi Toy suffered some cracks to the windshield pillars so i had to putty and sand it down. the car will be painted in a dark maroon color.


 

Dollar store toys

I went to my local dollar store and found these cars and got the idea to scrap them or Repaint them and customize them.


 

the toys are about the same size as my 1:25th scale 57 corvette, they look like they may be a 1:24th or 1:25th scale molding of the Audi A4.
