Default Boys and their toys

I still love toy cars! Especially if it's on like I own. I got this 1/18 scale S-Type shortly after getting the real thing. It isn't an R model, but the choices are pretty limited for our cars. If you have any, please share.

Wow thats pretty cool. I never thought of checking into scale models. The details are very nicely done.

I am almost feeling the two tone paint job as well.

Interesting paint, wonder how it would go over full scale?

I've never really looked closely at models recently as no one has any of my last four listed.

Amazing level of detail on the interior and engine.

This was actually my "test mule" for the two-tone paint. I had seen one in Tampa last summer and wondered what mine would look like. I think I need to extend the dark color a bit further back on the rear.

Great detail. But what's with that two-tone paint job?

Default 2 tone

imo two tone always looks best with darker color on top over lighter color. Most of Foose's two tones are this way. Darker on the bottom is also harder to keep clean.
