The Red Garage

Rain won't stop since this morning so it's impossible for me to go anywhere today! :(

I decided to organize my display cab (again). I rummaged through my treasure box to see if there are other toys that can be included in the cabinet and found a 1:32 Shelby Cobra by New Ray still inside its box. When I saw the carton base, I had an idea. So here's the result :D

I unscrewed the base and detached the Cobra. The checkered base triggered the idea and thought it to be perfect for my project.

And finally, after almost a year, I can now use this garage tool by GreenLight. I knew I would use this someday! :D

Fresh from the blister pack.

There are two holes on the base from which the Cobra was screwed and I was scratching my head thinking of a way to cover those holes. I just realized that I can actually use this for a car lift. Yes, a car lift. I am not very familiar with the variety of equipment inside a garage but the image of a car lift popped in my head, so I created one for my garage.

The post is made of sprue from a Gundam kit. I used super glue for the adhesive. It looks perfect :D The sample car above is a casting by GreenLight, I chose to use Greenlight casting to suit the size of the tools.

I realized that everything here is red. Red background, red equipment... so it was only natural that the car should be red :D So I replaced the car (I didn't paint it red if that's what you are thinking LOL) with a red variant.

My red garage! or should I say, Valentine's garage? hahaha.

I just used a Mooneyes sticker from a Johnny Lightning Shelby Cobra as a decoration (Yes, I know how to decorate...somehow :D)

 

All I need now are some people in my garage.. I'm going to look for 1:64 scale figures.

Sneak peek to my cabinet :D


It became a productive day after all :)


Thanks for looking. I hope you like it.
