  1. I love it, the chassis and drive train look as good as the exhaust!
  2. Thank you Carl, I managed to get some paint done today, among honey do items that is.
  3. Getting some things fabbed up, sorted and cleaned up. The VCG resin pieces fit nicely. I made the new roll bars and drive shafts from Evergreen styrene. Most parts are primed and ready for paint. Waiting on fender flares to work on the body. I did glue the windshield frame in place using the top as a guide.
  4. The Good Book says to live at peace with all people, whenever possible. Sometimes it just isn't possible but the best thing you can do is try talking to them, grow thinker skin and be kind. Did I mention the whenever possible part!
  5. Nicely done!
  6. Just saying thanks for the kindness
  7. Sad but true, deflating for sure. You will overcome though and it is a lesson learned. Hold fast…
  8. Opinions please. It has been suggested the grill insert be painted black, more in line with the roof and running boards. What is your thoughts?
  9. Nicely done!
  10. Happy wife, happy life. If you are married, wife should be most important. Anything that she feels takes her place is a threat to her emotional system. My wife is supportive and is generally happy with my hobby. That in mind I use the bench time wisely....
  11. Still filling the frame rails and trying a different fuel system. I repositioned the air intake to clear the hood.
  12. My rendition of the 34 Ford 5 window coupe. Drag City Castings chopped body, Base kit by AMT with a few Revell components mixed in. The engine is Pontiac from the Blue Printers Series, Splash Paints Seamist Green, custom mix Tamyia gold, semi and flat black colors. I added my own fuel and brake lines, made a set of taillights, scratch made the headers and exhaust from evergreen styrene. The interior is somewhat detailed but hard to see through the diminished windows. Thanks for looking.... The Build-
  13. Very nicely done, great detail painting and shiny!
  14. That is a nice model right there! Scale?
  15. Real beauty there….
  16. I couldn’t resist a quick test fit, obviously the roof and running boards are still primer.
  17. Pretty nice weather yesterday so after work having pre-sanded the body over the weekend. I got things set up and spayed a little Seamist Green and 2x clear from Splash paints on the 34. Now to cure. The chassis should really pop now.
  18. I will take your advice and test fit beforehand. I had a few minutes today so I started cleaning up the chassis and filling the front of the frame rails.
  19. New project started, Plastic Undercover theme build. Starting with the Revell Bronco and VCG Resin 3” lift kit. Let’s see where this goes. Josh makes some wonderful pieces and communicates well, he always kept me updated.
  20. Started Posted September 29, 2015 , I'd say your commented now. Very nice detail, realism and craftsmenship.
