  1. That is just flat out beautiful, Hanjo!
  2. You consistently knock out these fantastic models! I love this one, have it in the stash. Thanks for sharing yours.
  3. That is a gorgeous Dino, Justin! You did a fantastic job with it.
  4. Wow! Great looking model! You must have a large space to display all of your 1:8 scale models. I love these kits but I just don’t have the room for them. I will have to live vicariously through you! Thanks for sharing.
  5. That is a great looking old Chevy pick-em-up! I built one of these a long time ago for a friend. I have the new Coca-Cola repop. Like you said, it displays nicely.
  6. I've used the black BMF before on a Corvette windshield frame. It has been a long time ago but if memory serves me, I didn't like it. It was a little thicker and didn't adhere very well. I think the black may have even worn off a little when I burnished it. I would hate to give you bad information but that is how I remember it. I will tell you that I have never used it again. As someone else pointed out, it has the wrong sheen to it for window trim or any rubber trim.
  7. What a nicely built Mustang! Great job!
  8. You did a great job on this one, Ben! She is a good looking model for sure.
  9. That is a very, very, very sketchy obituary. Just read it for goodness sakes. I hope that whoever did this gets what is so deservedly coming to them.
  10. This is amazingly eye catching! I would have never thought of this but it works! You really did a nice job on all of the conversion and scratch built items. Bravo!
  11. Fantastic! What a great color combo!
  12. Now that is pretty darn cool!
  13. Great looking Road Runner! I would hope your friend still has it.
  14. Very nice, Rich! I’m not sure that I have ever seen this model before. Interesting subject and you’ve modeled it well.
  15. She is coming along nicely. That engine is sweet!
  16. You are doing some very nice work here. I admire you guys who do this much modification and kit bashing. Bonus points for doing it well!!
  17. She’s a beauty, Tom!
  18. Fantastic! Such a clean build!
  19. Very nice, Andrew!
  20. I've seen the most innocent of questions start the proverbial firestorm. There is no rhyme or reason to it. ?. I think you asked a legitimate question and are getting some good responses. As far as the Matra, yes, she'll be finished. There are several reasons it was put on hold, burnout on the project itself being the biggest issue. I have built several kits in the meantime and have enjoyed doing so.
  21. It is funny, to me, that is topic came up. Again, as the guy who can't stand not finishing something, I have a build thread for a Matra MS11 Formula 1 model that is over a year old now. I put the model to the side and haven't touched it in almost 6 months....and it bothers me ?. Interesting topic, I'm glad you brought it up!
  22. I’m that “checklist” guy. At work and at home I will make a list of things that I need to get done or want to accomplish and I will just about kill myself to get that list completed. When I was a kid my father called me, (among other things), One Track as once I got something in my head I wouldn’t stop thinking about it, asking for it, etc. Honestly, I’m still that way today. So when I start a model I almost always finish it. There have been a few exceptions but not many. If I run into major issues with a model I will admit that I lost the battle but not the war and keep moving forward. I have a few models that I have not shared on the internet nor put out for display but I finished them. I know from my years of doing this that not every one of my models is going to be contest quality, either due to my abilities or the kits shortcomings. I try to remember that it is just a hobby. No one’s lives depend on me building a contest killer or even finishing a model.
  23. Several of us in WV got #220 in the mail yesterday.
