cars eh? we have a great request from zealot for tuner style cars and also older muscle cars

remember the interchangable parts ideas?

Personally I have always wanted a 68 hemi cuda. Lime green color with black stripes down the side. I am also rather fond of the 68 charger - purple with black stripes.

You asked...

MGTD
MGA
MGB -- chrome bumpers
MG Midget/Austin Healey Sprite -- also chrome bumpers

All of these could be done with RH/LH steering for UK/US interest. Some rough and/or simple models of the TD, B, and Midget are already out there, might serve as a starting point.

1935 Ford Pickup
1964 Ford Pickup

And my all time favorite--1931 Ford Model A coupe

I guess I showed my age but that's OK...

What would be great is a set of matching scale Main Battle Tanks as use currently by countries around the world.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...nks_by_country

Some models are already out there by Modelik, GPM and others, but the list is by far complete as far as card modelling goes!

Also (am on a roll atm

) a list like the MBT's, but Combat/Attack Helicopters or Fighter Jets would be a great addition to the moddeling world!

(Maybe some 1:1 scale ammo to go with it as well :D My wife would probably kill me, but I would love a set of missiles and tank shells :D)

wow thats a nice list!

are you saying you whant 1/1 scale sidewinders?? :o
even a tank round would be a huge model.

i actually have some tanks im gonna do that havnt been done any where.

Would someplace to list models you intend to design be helpful? I think maybe it would so that people could possibly help you find reference materials

I wonder what would be the best format for that kind of thing...

Perhaps start a thread - I plan on designing these at some point.... you can continually modify your first post as you add/remove/change your mind and people can post responses with reference materials, paint jobs, etc

This is just a thought of course!

Well... I got a little carried away there, but maybe 1:6 or 1:12 would be a nice scale?
