    What about miniature miniatures? 1/4 scale drag races?

    Haha, check out this guy's Insta. https://www.instagram.com/1stpixdioramas/ I don't know if I've mentioned it but all of the lighting is very intentionally 110ac to 12vdc so ultimately it will be portable. I have a couple of 8aH AGM batteries out of Jeeps that would power this thing for days. I...

    This has turned into one of those projects that just keeps going. I'm enjoying it but I've lost count of the revisions at this point.

    Progression or obsession, not sure right now. Added more photos.

    Did some redesign and lighting work over the weekend, V2 of the Texaco sign and have a couple more to put together now that I have the material thickness and glare guard dialed in. Facelift on the showroom with a light strip integrated into the design now. Designing a switch box currently so I...

    Had an idea for signs last night I jumped right into when I got home. I always scan sticker sheets since we have a Cricut and that way I can rescale them and use them on lots of different things. So last night I printed them on velum paper and then for the Texaco sign drew up and printed a...

    The Datsuns are M2 cars I've had for a while. Since they screw mount to a base I still have the packaging in a box. Check out the Kaido House stuff if you like Datsuns. They do some cool stuff. I have no idea on value. I purely collect based on a personal aesthetic choice so I seldom pay...

    The micro Hot Wheels fits in the bed of the Datsun. Forgot I took the picture with my DSLR so it's not on my phone. The Barbie RV has a monster truck chassis waiting for it.

    Project coming along slowly. It's all pretty much mockup still at this point but it's going in the right direction. Changed out the window in the "show room" and added windows to the top openings. Printed up the graphics that are on the back wall now. Not permanent but I scaled down some of...

    I have a few 1/18 and 1/24. Still have several Monogram and Revell kits unopened from when I was younger. Mostly 1/64ish stuff these days because it's easier to store lol.

    That kid is amazing. We bought 2 of his calendars this year and gave one as a gift. I recommend him to car people all the time. He has somewhere over 3500 cars in his collection and people send him new ones all the time. He did a shoot with The Hooptie from the Sir Mix-A-Lot song and it was so...

    I'm an electric guy. Only nitro I have is an old one a coworker gave me that I'm going to clean up and shelve with my first hobby grade RC, my old RC10T. There are quite a few knowledgable nitro guys here from what I've seen.

    The garage is going to get a base for it to sit on and it's own shelving arrangement by the time it's finished. We have a display case in our living room that has a bunch of Texaco diecast in it and a shelf that gets changed out with different cars and arrangments through the year. Christmas is...

    Thank you, looking at scale garage accessories is making me look at a Resin Printer now. Although I would probably be better off just ordering a bunch because I don't have the patience for painting the little details. Need to decide how I want to paint it up on the inside first since for...

    I have a problem lol, and I don't have much compared to a lot of the guys in the groups I'm in. I'm pretty choosy about what I buy, needs to fit a theme of offroad or be a casting that really catches my eye. Most of those are M2 or Johnny Lighning, so much more detail than Hot Wheels or...

    I'm pretty much all things car in my life. I work at an offroad shop. I work on most of my own 1:1 stuff. I like mostly car/truck RC, and I love diecast of most scales. One of my side projects has been this garage. The original design is one I got from Thiniverse and printed just to play...
