June 9Jun 9 As my variety is the spice of life thread seemed to go down quite well i thought i might try another 😀People usually build to the box art or maybe build and change the decals but here is an idea that can get you thinking , 2 models 2 different finishes.This is Italeri s 1/12 Fiat 806And here it is again Take 2.......you get the idea Italeri's Harley WLA 1/9 Italeri Alfa 8C Italeri Triumph 3HW 1/12 Italeri Mephistopheles 1/12 now with mudguards lights and spare wheel Its always nice to build authentic but its also great fun to play around even if it upsets the Purists . more pictures of above or any questions feel free.

June 11Jun 11 Can´t really tell, which is my favorite, they are all beautiful duos. Maybe the cut off Fiat, which looks very special. I thought about double builds, different outcome as well, but decided against, as I don´t like repetition, but I can really acknowledge it.
