Looks like i'll need to stop by the LHS!

The mistakes must be on the other side! I see nothing but a nice clean model!

I didn't want you guys to think I was slacking, Found some time yesterday to get the color on my Club Cuda.

This about it for now...

Liken that color!

Very nicely done...

Talk about turning a sows ear into a silk purse, very nice.

​I am forever grateful to the men and women who sacrificed so much to create the greatest country in the world. It is how ever unfortunate many have forgotten that heritage...

Not much Wayne, my Shovelhead was upset last week so I had to show it some love... I did get the chassis smoothed and primed and started on the interior. I'm using the left over bed cover to make tuck and roll door panels. I'll get some pix soon.

Can't wait to see'em! Have you mocked up the front axle yet?

Thanks Wayne, I will be using the stock handles but I may paint them the body color. That color will be candy purple I think!

That should yield the exact location!

Thanks Chris, and here is a small update. Not much just smoothing and fitting things...

Inspiration comes from many places and has driven many a modeler into the deep end of our hobby. This is exactly what I love about models! And on a side note: The front wheels do appear to be forward some what, even ahead of the lights.

Wooh, I'm really digg'n that... no wait where'd it go? It was here a second ago!

No real updates, been busy at work!

Stunning!

Very Nice

So in light of the recent what scale do you build thread, I realized that some may build larger scale models just because it is easier. My hands are not as steady as they once were, and I have adjusted to the scale I like to build by doing less fiddly kits and not getting bogged down with details. All that building for shows or cramming as much stuff in as possible was more of a chore than a hobby. By knowing my own abilities, yet still pushing myself to do better I have discovered that modeling can be fun! So no matter what subject or scale you build, what have you done to help your model hobby continue? Magnifiers, clips, lighting, tweezers, tape? Change in scale, subject or style?

I don't know of anyone who uses more imagination then you. You always surprise me Ira and that an't easy to do!

Perhaps it's all the eye of the beholder! Those of us with better sight build 1/25 and the rest build other scales. Now something really important, what font should I be using...

I understand your comment and agree. I have rarely built any other scale than 1/25. But have cross scaled with 1/24 for a bash or two.

Coming along nicely.

Some rough chassis pics...
