had a good look round your site the other day at all the pictures. must say the models look pretty cool.

dont know if its just me or what, but the front and side views are spot on.......

the rear looks a little dodgy. i think its the rear lights that are maybe a little too wide or long or something. just doesnt quite look right?

9.5 out of 10 though lol

ta.

The rear lights are a little wide however based on the tech drawings I've got the rear is proportipnatly correct - its probably just the pics.

The above models are version 3 - the latest ones - the ones on the modelnovas.com website are versions 1 and 2 (as you look at the cars from left to right). Each version is a little more accurate and sharper in detail...

Alex's one took AGES - mainly because the kit had to be made from scratch - however once a mold was taken of the bumpers I can make a copy pretty quickly.

The red one took about 20 man hours (did it over weekends and after work over 3 weeks).

Currently working on one for Novalicious - would post pics but photobucket is being ****e!

waiting list is felxible - problem is I'm only doing them every now and again - sticking to the basic ones at the moment because I have the molds for them and can rattle them out pretty quick (ish) - if interested send me pics for a quote...

lol - theyre cool!

Waiting list is all over the shop just now - problem is I only do them now and again so someone who wanted one then cant afford or doesnt want one now.

I'll need to contact each person and get them to reconfirm their request I think...

At the moment I'm making GTE/GSi and basic modded novas - the more kitted ones take much longer as the kit needs to be made from scrathc however once made I can copy it - so its a catch 22 - basic cars = fast turnaround = more money to buy materials. Kitted cars = more kits = more money = more materials = order list drops quicker...

Oh for a 48 hour day...

lol - still waiting for the camera to be returned!

Its painted and the wheels are also painted - it's 3/4 done - just the finer details now.

I'm working back shift all week so only get about an hour of tinkering a nigt if I'm lucky. Hopefully it'll be done this weekend.
