  1. That's a busy paint scheme and you captured it perfectly along with the decals. A very cool looking model!
  2. On my daily dog walk I've wore shorts and a t-shirt, pants and t-shirt and today a jacket because there's been a constant beach mist. The temps are supposed to start rising and this weekend will be upper 80's and lower 90's. Goofy.
  3. Very nice job on this fun kit. Your decals are done well and just the right amount of dirt.
  4. LOL Some imagination and great engineering done there. Great job!
  5. Wow! Lots and lots of work and the finished model is excellent.
  6. Always thought this was a weird looking car but your model of it looks great. Nice work!
  7. Oh yeah. With all the drinking and the little birds splashing about I have to refill it every day or twice a day. There is a plant in the pot so it benefits with the water splashing into the dirt.
  8. Very nice, clean, sharp build!
  9. There's a potted plant by our patio that collected water over the winter months and I noticed the birds and squirrels would drink from it so I put a shallow bowl in there and keep it filled. Now it's used constantly and the little birds are taking baths in it also.
  10. #2 and #3.....must be nice but it's not that way here. #1 👍
  11. Looks great! Those interior shots are excellent. Nice work!
  12. A fun and great looking creation! Glad you kept it going to the finish so that we can enjoy it. Nice work!
  13. Great looking model! Sometimes the research done on an old race car can take as long as building the model itself. You created a convincing replica.
  14. Very realistic! The detail painting really looks great.
  15. I got these from a guy who knew a guy who lived down the street from Adam Sandler. Seriously, it took some work to find these and I don't know if it's ok to name the guy. I do know there is a website now that has lots of 3d racers and these are included.
  16. Very nice! Decals look challenging. You did good.
  17. Lots of great ideas and you completed them all to make a real nice model. Clever and fun.
  18. Yes, those are wacky but I can see you having some fun building something different from the norm.
  19. I was out feeding the squirrels and noticed one of the young ones has a bit of nylon netting around his neck and front leg. Getting around just fine but wonder as he gets older how tight it might get. Can already see a crease around the neck so...... First thing I thought of was how can I catch it and clip the net which would be impossible. Also noticed a squirrel hopping like a rabbit since his rear legs seem a bit unstable. Hate seeing these things but the wife reminds me they can't all live forever. Sad as I've got to know different ones with different personalities and how they approach me and aren't afraid when I'm working in the yard. Still have the large mouse/small rat critter hanging out with the squirrels during feeding time and randomly running around. Have a small bird with a damaged wing hanging around the last 2 weeks. He can fly a small distance horizontally but can't get any height so he's here to stay. He gets food from the seeds I feed the squirrels so he stays alive but for how long?
  20. I could end up spending a lot of $$$ at the A-1 Raceworks site.
  21. Excellent model and photography! And yes, Moebius model kits are very enjoyable to build.
  22. Very nice job on an old simple kit. Your attention to detail made this better than I usually see.
  23. Yes, that Terro ant killer is pretty good but I switched over to Advion several years ago. More expensive but works in a day in the house and works well outside too. My irk is the ever present rat I have in the backyard. I've posted on here before. I bought a Tomcat brand enclosed plastic thingy with poison bait in it that's "guaranteed" to work. It's been out there day and night in a couple of different spots where he is. I've literally watched him run right by it! Has no interest in it.
  24. I only throw out a couple of handfuls at a time for the squirrels so there's nothing lying around for other critters. This creates a different problem. A designated squirrel comes to the back sliding door and looks in and/or scratches on the door to get my attention. When I go out small birds show up to feed also which I'm fine with. Sometimes a couple of other big type birds show up too. I try to toss some bread for them so they don't gobble up all the seeds. And I still have the small rat running around too because the useless bait/trap I bought doesn't do a thing. I don't have hummingbird feeders anymore because the bees and yellowjackets would swarm around it all the time.
