  1. I've said this before; I appreciate the effort that goes into fixing problems and keeping this message board going. When I point out a problem I hope it isn't being viewed as a complaint. I'm just pointing it out so it can be fixed if possible. It has been comforting to know I'm not crazy and not the only one that has come across this. Yes, it is annoying when it works fine and then all of a sudden it doesn't but there are worse problems in life so I just deal with it.
  2. Yep, one Green Hornet for me!
  3. My favorite plane.
  4. Exactly what I was thinking.
  5. I bought this kit because the box said it was a 1966 Chevy Impala but it's a 1965. A fairly simple kit and it comes with the figure which needs to be painted and I was surprised it sits on the car very well. Painted with Testors red.
  6. Yep, same here. Works for a couple of days then doesn't again. Guess this is the way it's gonna be.
  7. The real car always looked like a beast to me. You did a great job with this as a gasser. Good looking colors you chose and overall look is just right.
  8. Looks like a real oval racer to me. Always interesting to read what a modeler started with and changes you made.
  9. That looks real good and the interior looks like you did a lot of detail painting. Pictures never give us a clear view of all the work involved.
  10. I like these old simple Monogram roadsters to build once in awhile. This is Jack McGrath from the 1954 Indy 500 using Indycal decals and Rust-Oleum ivory paint. Changed the exhaust exit and altered the pipe a bit otherwise it's fairly close enough for me to not bother with anything else.
  11. I like your choice of colors and the terrific paint job.
  12. Those are really nice and I like your "trick" photography.
  13. That is a great looking model! Very nice job!
  14. Tamiya kit of the 2002 WRC year with Marcus Gronholm as the driver. Painted with Tamiya TS17 gloss aluminum. Typical well engineered kit but the decals were a bit old so had some trouble with some of them.

    BMW Isetta

    Revell 1/16th scale painted with Tamiya brilliant blue and pure white. Very nice kit that went together well. The front door opens but the steering mechanism was very finicky so I'm just leaving it closed once I finally got it all together.

    VW Van

    This is the Airfix "snap" VW camper van that is similar to a Lego toy. Thought I'd have a little fun and build one of these and use some figures I had. Did a bit of detail painting but otherwise it's out of the box.
  17. Real nice job. Just got this kit and hope to somewhat replicate my Renegade from back when.
  18. Lot of graphics but looks like you've got it down. Good to hear they lay down well as it makes for a more enjoyable build. Nice work!
  19. That looks great! The garage is amazing also. Enjoyed looking at this very much.
  20. I don't build trucks but this one is immediately recognized as a classic. You would think there might be a market for vintage big rigs and I might even be tempted to build one like this.
  21. Always liked this car and you built a great looking replica.
  22. Wow, that looks great! Wouldn't have known it was 1/32nd scale. Nice work!
  23. Well, it was working right for a few days. <sigh>
  24. Nice "little" job on this!
  25. Tried to put a "sad" icon on your post but it's not working again. But I am sad to hear about this. 16 years is pretty good but I know from our loss of pet dogs you want them to live forever.
