Completed! 1992 Terry Labonte Sunoco Oldsmobile

It sure feels good to complete a model again! I've been in a huge rut and the last NASCAR model I finished was back in April 2014. I finished this one on 8/20/16, it represents the car Terry Labonte drove during the 1992 season- specifically modeled on the car he drove in The Winston. I set my goal for 2015, and carried it over into 2016, to finish NASCAR model #100 during the year, and now I am pretty close to that mark. For now, though, I will just be happy looking at this one! It's not my best work, there are definitely things I could have done better, but for the first time I've worked on anything in over 2 years, I can't really complain.

Finished my Torino!

It's been a long time! I don't know exactly when the last time I finished a model was, but it was sometime in May 2014. (I know this because that is when I uploaded pictures to my Fotki) Until today, that is! My Ford Torino, which was shown in my progress post last month, has now joined the ranks of finished models. I will get some "studio" Photos soon but for now I'm going to enjoy these outdoor shots....
There was zero chance I was going to build this as the Starsky & Hutch car that it's labeled on the box as. I love 70s cars and am waiting patiently for the wagon of this bodystyle to become available in resin. A 1974 wagon was our family daily driver until 1991 or so.
