Yeah I belong to the \' I build Model Kits club \' !!
Must admit I have been collecting more kits than making them at the mo!!!!
Got a Tamiya Honda (Yeah I know) S2000 and Tamiya FD on the go at the mo but have a Spirit R, Mazdaspeed RX7, Knight Rider Kitt plus R34 Nismo Z tune left to build !!
More of a winter thing than summer though.
Recommend using Meguiars Scratch X on the body after painting and then you polish it with Meguiars Gold Polish (yeah I know it sounds crazy) but the fine granules in the scratch x help to sand the paint and then polishing it brings the paintwork up and makes it look more real.

Good to see yours they look good.
I buy 1:32 kits and convert them into Scalextric cars.. currently working on an R32 Skyline and \'70 Mitsubishi Galant GT onto which I am grafting flared arched that I butchered off an Audi TT body.
Thanks for the tips on polishing, I\'ve been looking for a decent finishing method.
the polishing tips are a gooden cheers dude,
very cool.
i built a few kits previously when there used to be a beatties in derby. but once it closed, i didnt get round to buying any more kits :(
try hobby link japan (hlj.com) awsome kits from a massive range of companies and 1 3rd the price of the ones in the uk i get all of mine from there :Thumbs-up
