blackandwhite

Ive recently jumped into the world of DE shaving and all things badger brush, soaps/creams, and razors/blades

After seeing a couple of these builds pop up, I thought Id grab one and see how it worked out. I flocked the floor mats gray, and got the door panels painted a gloss gray. It was weird, when I tried to paint the door panels the gloss gray, there were certain areas that the paint would 'run away' from, on both pieces. This plastic also seems thicker. Whenever I try to file/sand something, it seems to chew through my material and paper. I decided to scrap the metal axle and kit wheels for something a little different I have since made sure the bed rails, hood inserts, and such fit, which everything does very well. The pictures make look a little unlevel, its only because part of my mat is warped

splitter looks good. Im liking how that car is coming together

love the trunk section. Nice detail

looks great! well done

grabbed the snap together raptor, a new scriber, deck brown, and a can of tamiya brilliant blue

Couple of MM metalizers, 3 brushes, some tamiya clear yellow, and pack of tamiya PE saws

I lived with a buddy in rockdale, across from west park for a few months Welcome

i vote for stuffing the gt40 wheels and tires underneath that thing

I really like the Copen. I think the decals take away from the retro-ish look of it. All of these look like great little cars with details well highlighted by you

Crossed something off my bucket list.my wife, son, and I drove to Astoria Oregon today and went to the 'goonies' house. Ever since I could remember I wanted to go. It's a beautiful area with great food and beer. Really nice older downtown area with shops and such

It's already been said, but I have to; amazing weathering and detail. Great job

Got to hear a strong healthy heartbeat and overall good check up of our daughter (due June 29th)

I went into a HobbyTown USA and they usually have a mark down table of kits to the likes or cars/bikes/military There was a Hasegawa Toyota Corolla Levin GT Apex for about $22 after the 50% was taken off. I figure I dont care much for that particular car, but for the wheels/tires and to use everything else as more of a parts kit, didnt seem that bad to me. The edges had been retaped so I figured I was good. Drove the 40 minutes home, sit down and open it up...there is no body. There was actually no body for the car in the box. So somehow, someone bought the kit, returned it without the body (terrible idea to accept it, whoever the heck was working the counter that day), and then marked it down without any sort of a notification. I was irate. I called and told them about it and they said I could just return it. I told them I drove 40 minutes there and then 40 minutes back only to have it exchanged? After dealing with the manager, I told him Id give him a couple of bucks, just to have it as the parts it was, which he agreed and refunded me the rest as well as discounted another kit that wasnt on sale All in all it worked out, frustrating none-the-less. Moral of the story, read all description if purchasing online, and if purchasing an open kit in person, CHECK THE CONTENTS

sure wish I wasnt deploying. Id love to be there. Seems Im leaving right as everything is about to start happening. Best of luck to those that go, and hope it turns out to be a great event

I live in Washington state now but was born in Bolingbrook and then moved to Aurora. My in-laws live in Naperville. Where exactly are you? As far as shows/events, that area sure seems to have gotten a lot going since I left a couple years ago. http://www.ipmsusa.org/chapters/state_select.asp?ST=IL That might be able to help you out. I think there is a big thing going on in Milwaukee soon: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=98760 I always am searching for events to go to wherever I am.

Im in the military and live in on-base housing. Our last house was just a 2 bedroom so I had the table on a wall.I had the bottom 3 drawer on my desk, and the larger 5 drawer was under the table. Ive since fastened the two white units together to make the single, taller one Our house now has 3 bedrooms and I was able to claim one for the computer/hobby room. This is my wall of hobby stuff. I have another larger 3 drawer plastic unit in the closet with my 1/25 stuff and on the top shelf in the closet are my 1/24 kits and spray paints. Im deploying soon so it will all have to get packed up. When I get back, I will have a new addition to the family in the form of a little girl, so my 'office' goes bye-bye and I will be relinquished back to another small area

I got a big pack of alligator clips and bamboo skewers off amazon. Crimped the end of the clips onto the skewers and haven't looked back since

2010 grand Cherokee limited. Rwd with 3.73 gears and a hemi. Makes stop light to stop light pretty fun, but the 12mpg average isn't the best

ive got a couple k20's and b18's if interested. shoot me a pm if youd like

ive got an integra/skyline/evo/murcielago depends on the time frame as ill be gone next week for work, and then am going home for 2 1/2 weeks in december

I use microscale: micro liquitape. Washes off with soap and water. Similar to Elmer's but says on the bottle itself 'for temporary joining of most model materials'

I wish I had the space for a diorama. This is an awesome job. Words alone cannot describe the level of detail Well done Richard

what was the cost of that transkit if you dont mind me asking

from what I was told at my LHS, the revell integra is due out in late december with new(and uglier imo) box art. Seem's to have some new decals and wheels
