VMF Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 hey guys, i'm creating a model of lexus ls400 in 1:24 check it out:) http://public.fotki.com/VMF/models/carstrucks/124/
93LSOwner Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 nice!!!!!! Its very detailed, specially the inside.
BlackSC4 Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 you make these them? wow...that's pretty cool man, let's see an sc300 or 400 one day. :whistles:
VMF Posted February 13, 2004 Author Posted February 13, 2004 when i will have more time:) each of those takes around 40 hours to built. if you will check other folders on that site you will see that i have a lot of em, built and unbuilt, but most of em are planes:)
jzz30 Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 kewel the bottom side as well as the interior is very detailed. so when are you changing the lower ball joints?
SKperformance Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 not bad how much would you charge to make copies of someones cars i think a guy in toronto charges $250 for a 1:24 scale modle of your car also but you know you could have bought the 1:18 motor max one at walmart for $10
SW03ES Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 Very cool.... I collect 1:18th scale models, I have the first gen LS one but I was always irritated they never made any for the subsequent generations...
VMF Posted February 13, 2004 Author Posted February 13, 2004 heh, thank you guys, creating scale models is my hobby since i was 7 yrs old. swo i wanted to find that 1:18 diecast as well but i had no luck so far:( i will try to create all models of lexus cars if i will have time. next thing i'm gonna do is a scania truck with semitrailer.:) if you interested you can check out whole models folder on that site.:)
99lsguy Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 Very cool....I collect 1:18th scale models, I have the first gen LS one but I was always irritated they never made any for the subsequent generations... Swo.... Check this out :D Sorry I didn't tell you guys I got ANOTHER LS 400 FOR CHRISTMAS! Year 1998-2000 and this one is Platinum! 7 spoke wheels & NAV! Enjoy... 99
99lsguy Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 wowwhere did u you get it? From my brother ...... (xmas gift!) I'll check the box for website and.... Call my bro to get the details.. (I hope I don't scratch the clear coat )
SW03ES Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 Cool! I've looked everywhere and have never found one...
VMF Posted February 13, 2004 Author Posted February 13, 2004 i will go to the hobby store tomorrow and check what they have to offer. i saw couple of kits in ebay but they are all either gen I or gen IV, no gen II and III:( i think there are only ls, gs and is kits available, i have never seen any other kits:( might have to do em from scratch:)
99lsguy Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 Cool! I've looked everywhere and have never found one... Can't get a hold of my bro...taking a vacation day from work so I'll catch him over the weekend. This is a 1/24 scale - and I think my brother said he looked everywhere to find this also. Has this website on the box..... http://www.aoshima-bk.co.jp Steve, maybe now you can find all the model years :D
VMF Posted February 13, 2004 Author Posted February 13, 2004 aoshima makes only LS, GS and IS :( i saw only those models in the stores and online:( gs is very rare
SW03ES Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 Auto Art sells a nice pre-constructed model of the GS, IS, and RX...
VMF Posted February 14, 2004 Author Posted February 14, 2004 guess what guys. i just went to the hobby store in NJ and i found 3 generations of LS I,III and iV, plus beefed up celcior model and both gens of gs, but all of them are at least 30$. but hey, for us ls lovers the most important thing is that we can build our LS car ourselves, even if they are in 1:24 scale.
VMF Posted February 14, 2004 Author Posted February 14, 2004 i have been thinking and i got this idea:) if a lot of people will make scale models of lexus cars i will ask Matt or Steve to create a special folder in the gallery for the models:)

Here's where mine came from: http://www.mechahawaii.com/TOYOTALEXUS.html VMF, $30 will buy one tank of gas- but at least these models don't need any
UCF3 Posted February 15, 2004 Posted February 15, 2004 Doesn't anyone collect 1:36-1:43 scaled diecasts like I do? :(
VMF Posted February 15, 2004 Author Posted February 15, 2004 i do collect them:) but they are usually not available as kits, only as a model already. http://public.fotki.com/VMF/models/carstrucks/143/ here is my truck collection:)
