The Tyrrell 018s are of big interest to me. I'd love to see more pictures if possible. Love that car. Was it the studio 27 kit? I've built the Ace kit for Alesis debut but I'd love to have Alboreto at Monaco spec car too.

All Ace kits at 1/20th scale.
At facebook I have more pics too, look for "Garagem do Teles".

Not the best pics I've made, probably I made some mistake with the camera, I must admit that is necessary to upgrade my photography skills... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I am so impressed with the work this year. Is it me, or did everybody take a huge step forward? The fit and finish is amazing as is the photography. I really enjoy this time of the year, seeing all of the completed projects on one thread.

Thank you to everybody who shared their work.

And hopefully not the last one i complete this year. Kind of hope8ng to squeeze one more in before the year is out.

My McLaren MP4-12C GT3 that Seb Loeb drove in the 2012 GT Tour.

Like i say im hoping to get one more done but weather and work load are the 2 biggest factors stopping it.

Many thanks guys

Some really fantastic work this year, as all years :wink: .
Unlike some of you superstars, I was only able to finish one project this year, a Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo. Built this for a friend of mine many years ago, and took it back to fix a broken exhaust tip, which then promptly spiraled out of control into a full-blown rebuild, complete with extensive upgrades and modifications. And here's how it came out.

Another related, but altogether different project I completed, was setting up my model room in the new house. Considerably more room than the old room, and able to set up shelving to hold all my waiting projects in one room, rather than distributed throughout the house as in my condo.

A little more space for my real cars as well :D .

So, that was 2018 for me. Looking forward to getting this one in the bag and moving on to 2019.

Cheers,
Chris
