    Lightbulb VW Kombi Mayhem

    Hey folks,
    Leaving my creative footprint once again on this mighty forum that has helped a lot in many ways.

    There was annual model show here in Ireland near my place back in November 2017.
    I try to attend this show every year for past 4 years with something fresh, something new, something exciting to present.
    However due to being busy with doing multiple jobs to keep bread on table I did not have chance to make and finish anything for a while.
    Model Fest date was approaching and I did not wanted to let this slip. I wanted to visit this show once again so badly that decided to sacrifice late evenings
    and knock out few VW Kombi Vans. Initially I had plan to make and finish 14 of them, finished only 4 due to short time I gave myself.
    Anyway, I tried and here is the result.

    Thanks for watching!

    Random plan from online
    Tried different ways, first painted model is trial and error. The rest went other way.

    Thumbs up Great projects, look like your having tons a fun.

    It must be nice to be young and be able to work all day and still have enough energy to get all that great work done.
    I used to be able to do that but old age has slowed his modeler down. LOL

    Have to say feeling blessed to be able knock out any models at this stage. Energy is great, trying to keep it that way. Most important thing is blood, sweat and beers LOL
    I think I have sent you Private Message about possible robbery of your pictures by myself
