I have a small secret when it comes to writing this blog, and that secret is the Model Cars Magazine forum. Whenever I'm stuck for an idea of what to write about (or, more to the point, have forgotten all my good ideas when it comes time to put thought to page) a quick surf of the MCM forum will always trawl up something cool for me to think about, or often, feature. There's a high turnover of cool projects there, without the bullshit and blurry dark pictures that you see on some other popular forums. This is one such project.
Currently in progress by Ohio resident Tom Kren, this is the latest of many 32's that we've featured here. This has GOT to be the prettiest though, by far. Look at that colour!
Tom's gonna drop that gorgeous orange/white body over Replicas and Miniatures whitewall tyres, Modelhaus steelies (finished body colour, so the rolling stock continues the orange/white theme) and a beautifully prepared flattie.
With the cool touches (check the stock style firewall, for example) and an eye catching colour Tom did everything right on this one. Looking at his in-build progress thread, he's pretty close to having all the painting completed too, so it shouldn't be long before we see this one under glass. About ten seconds before I steal the whole cool concept and build my own just like it.
Check more of Tom's work in his Fotki, here. You won't regret it...
