  1. You can't get inspiration without it can you? It's one of the inspirational tools at my disposal along with whiskey, gin and vodka, of course you have to be careful not to get too much inspiration as that can lead to some very strange models.

  2. Hi all I am a new member to this forum, and really I suppose plastic kits, I only started again Christmas after a break of nearly 40 years. I was 10 or so when I built my last plastic kit.

    So enough waffaling. After completing AMT's Plymouth Fury Christine (bit peeved there its just a reboxed Belvedere had to remove the Belvedere badging) I thought why not do a diorama of Moochies death scene, then I thought no wait a min why not do the filming of Moochies death scene. and with that thought I began. So here is my progress so far.

    I tried to get a 1\24-25 model of a dozer but they are about 100 quid and I aint paying that plus postage so I thought I would see if I could get away with a 1\16 but no it looked stupid so i cut it down to 1\25

    decided the Tarmac looked quite empty so decided to add a Tea trailer and car towing it for the crew on the shoot

    So that is where I am now still 2 more cameras to build all the lighting rigs the generator got to think of a logo for the Tea trailer, got to be American (being British thats a bit hard)and i want to incorporate my initials KP into it, loads more to do trouble is I keep thinking of more.Oh and of course when I pluck up the courage I have got to crush Christine into the loading bay.

    So what do you think.

  3. Hi all I live in Gt Maplestead Essex England

    Untill recently I usually built scratch built rc boats and ships. Then at Christmas I was bought a plastic model kit it was actually a tank (never built one before)but I enjoyed it so much it reminded me of my youth when I used to build model cars (not very well)but from years of scratch building I like to think I have improved.

    Anyway to cut a long story short I am well and truly hooked. I have joined some other forums and was checking yours out and thought this seems like a nice place, friendly and knowledgeable so here I am.

    Ken's the name modeling's the game.
