  1. Looks fantastic Mike... what kind of printer are you using? Very detailed for 1/24!
  2. I love this... thanks for the update!
  3. Almost forgot about this build... anything new?
  4. Absolutely amazing!!!!
  5. So, I lurk here... a lot. I've been busy creating CAD files over the past year to create this 1/10th scale lakes modified roadster. You might ask why 1/10th scale...well, the math to scale is really easy. Take a 1:1 measurement and divide by 10...WAY easier than figuring 1/8 scale...LOL. Anyway, I know to finish the parts would take a ton of sanding, but the idea is just to create an "art" style piece, embracing the bobbles resulting from printing. Think pixel art... the dots make the overall picture. I've had fun creating it so far... I'm working on the suspension parts now and a "full race" 4 banger is in the works. I welcome feedback! And if PLA in a STYRENE forum is wrong, let me know. Whatcha think???
  6. That is VERY cool... I remember many years ago seeing a sketch pad in Scale Auto of a '59 Chevy Elcamino being done in a similar way. I like it!!!
  7. Thanks for the welcome guys! Hey Mike... yes I'm still in the same spot!
  8. It's been better than 20 years since I was REALLY into models. I belonged to the Buckeye Scale Auto Club in the late 80's. Here's one I built when I was only 13 or 14 years old. I had the Robert Williams poster on my wall for a long time when I decided to build the AMT coupe. The paint is poorly sprayed, there's glue on the windows, and....my dad duplicated the flames & painted them by hand. It's survived many, MANY moves, a couple of cats, and tons of dust... but still is my favorite! Also included is a pic of another '40 project in green with big diameter wheels.... I'm just getting back into plastic and loving every minute of it!!!
