  1. I agree, and appreciate being able to upload pictures from my computer. I don't subscribe to any picture hosting sites so if I can't directly upload I just don't do it.
  2. That's a great looking model!
  3. I like your colors and the wheels and tires look real good on this car.
  4. Funny thing about soda pop. A few years ago the wife and I realized we weren't drinking much of it anymore. We only drank it when we felt like it anyway but we just quit. Now we might have 1 in a month. We're both huge water drinkers with our meals so that always helps.
  5. Everyone has made good points as to why the model companies don't make 4 doors and I understand where they are coming from. I've been frustrated in the past that so many 2 door models are the SS versions or the souped up version. So often I just wanted the family car type but again it's not fancy enough and might not sell as well.
  6. I never liked diet pop. It was real Coca Cola all my life but after I got diabetes many years ago I had to switch and Coke Zero is a step above any diet drinks. It might just be me but that is my favorite as it doesn't taste like other diet drinks. We all have different tastes so you're just gonna have to try them all.
  7. Is this just gonna be a passenger car with a decal sheet? I would think the real car would at least have a roll bar in it and maybe some other things I can't think of without some research.
  8. I've been stung by yellow jackets quite a few times in my life. All with a story. I can work in the yard with bees and bumble bees within inches of my hands and they're fine. Hate yellow jackets! Strange thing that I haven't seen much of them the last couple of years.
  9. Some strange characters but I enjoy looking at them. So much detail painting! Great job on these!
  10. Really enjoyed him in two baseball movies; The Sandlot and Field of Dreams.
  11. Always liked this plane and your model captures the look real nice!
  12. Don't think I've seen one of these done before. Lots of craziness and color going on but you did a nice job.
  13. Thank you for the explanation about the gushing water. It's nice to learn something new now and again at an old age.
  14. Amazing. What's the gushing water coming out below?
  15. When a person comes to the door and his "pitch" is telling me how many of my neighbors are customers of whatever it is they're selling. Oh okay, then I must do it too! My favorite was the guy who warned me that I'd have a major bug problem some day after I told him I've lived here 20 years and not a problem yet. You just wait, he said. Still waiting. I usually don't answer the door but they catch me when I'm outside or working in the garage with the door open.
  16. Great job on the model! Yes, a very different Chaparral.
  17. I killed a mole today and that irks me and I feel really bad. In the past I manage to catch one and walk way down the street to the creek and let it go there. It's an area where the houses are away from it so they'll be safe and not bother anyone. Been chasing this one for a week and noticed new activity from earlier today so used my hose method and got him. Problem was, he was blindly running and about to get away so I had to quickly act with my shovel and decided to just end it. Still feel real bad about it. I'm not a killer of things.
  18. I've bought their meat at the deli here on the west coast. Usually buy other brands but it's been on sale once in awhile so took advantage of the price but it's been a long time since I had any so I'm done with them.
  19. Both are good looking models. So frustrating to put all that work into a model and then have the decals screw it all up.
  20. Littering. Even when I was young, I never littered. Just something I'm very much against as there is no excuse for it.
  21. Many, many years ago I realized Kraft Mac & Cheese gave me the runs. Took a few times to figure it out but either I changed or they changed something. Haven't had it since.
  22. So cool! All the added detail and extra stuff is well done and a joy to look at. Very different and you applied your "vision" in a fun way.
  23. This is a good question and I don't mean to hijack this but the type of glue to use on vinyl is another problem that keeps me from building an old vinyl figure I've had lying around. Thanks for asking this because I needed to know too.
  24. I like it. Reminds me of a time we went motorcycling in the desert for a few days. I had almost the same pickup and slept in the cab. Another guy set up a cot in the bed of his pickup. Fun times.
  25. That looks pretty bad. Guessing it would be covered in snow into Feb 2025?
