My Scale
Models
by Ismael Gonzalez
Welcome to my personal Scale Models
page!
I've
been building scale models pretty much my whole life. I started when I was
about 8 years old, and that was back in 1978!
I have built many different types of scale models over the years but the
most common have been cars in 1/24 - 1/25 scale. Some have not survived the test of time of
over 4 decades and counting. I am a big
Corvette enthusiast so not surprisingly, that has been the most frequent
subject. Other than cars, I also build
airplanes and helicopters, both military and civilian. I've also built other subjects like motorcycles,
a submarine, Star Wars vehicles and others. Recently, I've been modifying Hot
Wheels type 1/64 vehicles. My preferred
style is usually Factory Stock/Documented replica. But a sprinkle of
customization and fantasy engineering inspiration have also appeared. Realism is always my goal. I get to combine this hobby with my other
passion: Photography, to create convincing images.
In this "Eternally Under
Construction" page I want to share with you this wonderful hobby. I hope you enjoy it.

construction and may not work)
