The official community for Alpha Model builders — premium resin car model kits, master build guides, and modelers from all over the world.

Hi everyone, and welcome! Whether you have just unboxed your first Alpha Model kit or you are an experienced resin builder, this forum was built for one thing: to help you build better models and enjoy every step of the journey.

This post is your complete starter guide — what is inside the forum, how to register, and how our points system works.

What's Inside the Forum

1. 166+ Master Build Guides — our biggest resource

Alpha Model works with top professional builders around the world to document complete builds from unboxing to the final showcase. We currently have 21 build series with 166+ chapters, covering every major stage of a build:

• Background and technical research on the real car
• Unboxing and full kit contents
• Resin part preparation — sanding, seam removal, scribing panel lines
• Interior and engine bay detailing
• Wheels, brakes and suspension
• Paint work — priming, base coats, clear coats, polishing
• Final assembly and showcase photography

Every chapter is written by the builder himself with step-by-step photos — you can follow along with the exact same kit on your workbench.

2. Work-in-Progress Boards

Building something right now? Start your own build log in the brand boards — Ferrari, Porsche, Japanese cars, F1, Aston Martin, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lamborghini, Alfa Romeo, Bugatti and more. Share your progress, ask for feedback, and help fellow builders along the way.

3. Finished Model Gallery

Show off your completed work — or simply browse museum-quality finished builds for inspiration and reference before your next project.

4. New Product Launches

Every new Alpha Model kit is revealed in the forum first. Members get the earliest look at new releases, tooling updates and limited editions — sometimes months before anywhere else.

5. Tips & Tutorials

Technique guides sorted by topic: sanding, painting, coloring, assembly and detail finishing. Stuck on a specific step? This is the first place to look.

6. Help Section & Unboxing / Reviews

Questions about a kit, a part or a technique? Post in the Help Section and experienced builders will jump in. You can also find unboxing videos and honest kit reviews from real builders.

7. Hobby Design Board

Everything about detail-up parts and conversions — photo-etched sets, carbon fiber decals, custom wheels and resin upgrade pieces.

Step 1. Go to alphamodelforum.com/sign-up (or click the Register button on the forum homepage)
Step 2. Choose a Username (3–15 characters)
Step 3. Enter your Email address
Step 4. Set a Password (at least 6 characters) and type it again to confirm
Step 5. Click the register button — that's it! You can start posting right away.

Earn Forum Points

Being active pays off. You earn forum points just for taking part in the community:

Maximum you can earn per day: 15 points.

As you take part, your forum level grows too — from new member all the way up to ranks like Advanced Creators. Your level badge is displayed on your profile and next to every post you make.

Redeem Points for Official Store Credit

Forum points can be exchanged for Alpha Model official website points, which work as store credit toward any purchase on our official store, alphamodelkit.com.

Exchange rate: 100 forum points = 10 official website points.

Step 1. Click “Points Redemption” in the top menu to open the Points Redemption Center.
Step 2. Check your points balance and choose your reward — for example, redeem 100 forum points for 10 official website points.
Step 3. Fill out the redemption form: your name, email address, select your reward, tick the confirmation box, and submit.
Step 4. Our team verifies your request and contacts you within 48 hours. Once verified, your forum points are deducted and the official website points are credited to your account — ready to spend on any purchase.

Important: Submitting the form is a redemption request, not an instant exchange. Our team will contact you within 48 hours to verify your points and complete the process. Points are deducted upon successful verification. Redemption is available for members at Level 2+ or with 200+ forum points.

More rewards are on the way — branded merchandise, limited detail-up parts, special kits, double-points days, and a monthly “Build of the Month” contest. Stay active, and stay tuned!
