67 Plymouth GTX, Splash Paints Plum Crazy and 2x clear, interior, engine and chassis parts airbrushed Tamiya. Alclad chrome and white aluminum on the shiny bits. Scratch made front chassis and exhaust. Overall, pleased with the outcome. My lighting does no justice, thanks for looking…

Those setbacks happen to us all, you'll overcome it and still have a beautiful model. Slowing down and or taking a break is a good idea and when the time is right, you'll get it right!

Well worth the wait, just lovely...

This boring, I’m going outside…

And yet here we are discussing endX in a thread about a model car forums instead of supporting the industry. My point is how easily distracted we are…But I’m sure you haters will find something else to complain about.

How did we go from Randy's forum shutting down to all the conspiracy theories?

That was a hard hit, glad he is doing well! I wouldn't blame him for stepping away after that one...

I spent some time at the bench this weekend…

Comparatively speaking, maybe a little less tire would do the trick.

I like it, on the shelf is a good look!

Liking this just fine...

Thank you!

I'll be 64 this year, feel great most of the time, just the usual aches and pains from life's casualties. Mentally I feel young, I am slowing some but still enjoy working, playing and the occasional party. Still riding and wrenching on motorcycles and building models of course. The hobby for me has change over the years, but it is still a great way to relax and escape even for just a moment! I also believe some take this hobby way to seriously! Trying to be all authentic and overly exact. That's ok for some but me, I just wanna have fun.

This is exactly what a model should look like, IMO. Cleanly built, great paint, well detailed and setting pretty. Well done...

That is a great looking Nova, well built and nicely detailed.

This is a fine-looking model, the closet I've seen to the 1:1. Nice work...

Splash Paint Plum Crazy w/2x Clear

Now that is a fine-looking model right there...

Not finished but some BMF and a quick polish, Happy Fathers Day…

Stunning pony car you built, nicely done...

The picture doesn't show the exact color. I was more excited to have gotten it painted after a failed attempt. But yes, Splash Paint base and 2x clear all straight outta the bottle. Thanks...

Nice day to paint…

Yes he did, I was an Administrator on his site and had mastered a few parts for him. I'm sorry to say I bailed when things went sideways over there, lots of drama towards the end.

He is a great guy, I lost contact with Fred years ago. I believe like so many of us other things just get in the way and life changes over time. I know mine has...

This is a great site, lots of knowledge and friendly members, many who came from Freds Short Track Forum when it closed down. Which I had done in 2004! Keep the Short Track alive...
