  1. I have never had more modeling time than the last month when we had the baby. I thought I was done for a while, but it's the opposite. Feed him, burp him, change him and put him down in his little rocking bed thing next to the bench. I can't paint when he's in there, but I have been sanding and fitting like a madman. I usually get about two hours at a time. My wife stays home, so i releive her and she can sleep. Sleeping baby, sleeping wife, nobody to tell me what to do. It will change though, when he gets more aware, teething etc. But they sleep for longer periods. So far it's worked out alright.
  2. I did a search and couldn't find anything. I am wanting to buy detail and plumbing wire in rolls if possible. Buying the small packages is adding up and I was wondering if anyone knew what sizes are used. The local stores around here don't have anything that small.
  3. I'll post pics later, but I got a very nice package from Singapore today. Tamiya 993 GT2 PE/resin set Tamiya Ferrari 312 T4 turned metal funnels Tamiya Nissan R390 GT1 PE set MY Favorite, Hobby Design PE set for the Fujimi 427 Shelby Cobra 4 sets of Eduards harnesses Generic PE brake set Resin Brembo calipers
  4. I have the HRM resin engine/suspension kit. It looks great, but I'll be cutting off the Weber stacks and using the turned stacks from RB Motion. The parts are crisp, though
  5. you don't seem to be a very intelligent person
  6. What?
  7. Don't take this away from me!
  8. I just had a boy 3 weeks ago. Super exciting. Hope everyone stays healthy.
  9. I agree. Some Vettes and Vipers walk the line, bu don't quite fall into the category, IMHO.
  10. It's 48 here, I think I might die. I have a standing job offer, a really good one, in Winnipeg. I was born and raised and still live in Southern California. It's double what I make now, but I just can't bring myself to do it.
  11. The article indicates that this was not parked and forgotten, bu meticulously cared for in it's original condition. The article also indicates that the car was put in a barn for photos, and not actually found in a barn. I was going to disagree with Daddyfink about this until I actually read the article. In this case, "Barn Find" was used for sensationalism only, it seems.
  12. It looks good, but it seems like those kit tires don't fit the wheel wells properly, they look a little small. some larger tires and a little lowering and it would look killer.
  13. Just received items from Sam I Am. Quick shipping and exactly what he said.
  14. Thanks, yours came promptly as well. perfect deal.
  15. I got it within a few minutes. I'm at work and luckily had some time .There are ways to just search for things and narrow it down. I have never heard of the manufacturer or seen the car before. Other ones are much harder though when there are less unique features search for.
  16. There are tons of high quality die cast models out there and none of them even come close to comparing to what people can build at home. Even the high dollar stuff like Exoto, which would once have me drooling over, is now unnacceptable to me because of what I have seen on the forums. For a die cast, the Danburys are pretty BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH nice.
  17. Imgur.com is what I have been using for the past year. It's extremely simple. There is a one click option to resize photos as you upload
  18. I use oil paint diluted with turpentine, works pretty much the same way as above. I tried the acrylic paint but it didn't work for me. Try a couple things and see what works.
  19. Eagles and chiefs would be like the special Olympics bowl.
  20. I'm a Detroit fan, what are these "playoffs" you speak of? I'd like to see Denver VS Seattle in the Super Bowl
  21. Meh, they're okay. I never know what to say when I see your builds man, hands down the the cleanest work I have ever seen. I am constantly looking back at your large scale builds, trying to convince myself they aren't real cars.
  22. who would have thought? I used to snowboard a lot. It doesn't take much to hurt yourself. He was wearing a helmet, otherwise he'd likely be dead. I hope he recovers.
  23. I don't think you could have picked a better color. It's awesome!
