NZ Performance Car – October 2019

What scale size do you build?
Pretty much solely 1:24 scale at the moment, although I’m going to
try a few 1:18 scale kits soon, as I’m working with a company to start
importing and selling their kits.

Do you use specific-brand kits, or is it varied?
For the basic kits, Tamiya is the main brand; they make a really nice

kit. Also Aoshima, Belkits, Fujimi. From those, I wanted to find some
real ‘out there’ kits, as there were always these crazy cars popping
up on my Facebook feed of people overseas building Lambos with
Liberty Walk kits and twin-turbocharging the V10 engines, etc. I
wanted to do that with my kits, so went out and found my main-
brand kit through Hobby Design. I’ll start importing these soon, as
Eightyone and V-Modeller kits, so others can make cool stuff too.
