What did you see on the road today?
Twokidsnosleep replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
That is awesome Dan, loving that rig. Just have to delete the "model" lady out of the picture Were there BC plates on it??? -
Oh good news Now just get better, the darn car will still be sitting there just as it was waiting. There is no deadline on finishing it and you are doing a right proper job, so just get better Hang in there and have a Happy Holiday season and New Years
-
Clean and crisp, really a SWEET build. You nailed this one Now where is that Wolf F1 car?????

Oh yeah, sorry to borrow those tweezers, will give them right back I am not a railroader, but one of my favourite shops in Vancouver is Central Hobbies. They are full on railroading store and have so much stuff that isn't behind locked cabinets so I can go an pick through what will work The scaffolding is train bridge girder, the spotlights are oil drums and the lights are battery powered LED Christmas bulbs Making Spot lights: oil drums spun on Dremel lathe to remove seam lines, glued drum to it's sprue to act as support, bulb inserted bent and distal side painted black Pretty simple actually. This is a good time of year to find cheap battery powered LED's and you can chop em up and re-solder to your configuration

Ok Jim, got Irvin made and added in. He was a Hasegawa 1/72 weapons lift truck driver. I made him a fuzzy sweater and a hat. I think he has an Abe Lincoln or Fidel Castro look going on as well Still have final pics to do on W/E, will post more then
-
Very kind of you Rob, thanks for looking
-
Hey thanks guys...it was supposed to be just the crashed X wing..... then saw the movie set photo....then got challenged to add actual lighting Was fun learning and combining stuff; woodworking for the base, made brass soldered supports for the background curtains, investigated silicone water effects, delved into painting figures, electronics and soldering.... Kind of pushes you out of your comfort zones

Ok, working on fixing up my gaff Here are the two directors together Irvin Kershner and George Lucas Working on the hat and beard for Mr Kershner, made from a 1/72 Army guy
-
Oh I absolutely recommend them!!! Less expensive than Fine Moulds, better engineered than Revell or others. I did not need to glue anything on the X wing when I put it together. Great kits and thanks for posting
-
".....and for god sakes don't fall in until you have taken off your helmet" I had no idea he directed this, and will add him into the mix in a day or so; thanks for the correction....just gotta find the right figure Thanks for looking Jim and everyone else as well

Hey, thanks guys If you are into this sort of Star Wars thing, the newer Bandai kits are really well done, go together perfectly and they have a ton of different subjects
-
Just to prove I have not been sitting on my hands doing nothing all year...movie scene diorama from Star Wars. Luke has just stepped out of X Wing, R2 hasn't fallen into swamp yet
-
Oh buddy, so sorry to hear you are fighting bad health still Keep fighting and doing what you can to get better, really need you around here to keep us inspired All the best, will keep you in my thoughts
-
Ditto for me....just in temporory digs at the moment so it is packed up safe and sound Pistol grip is easy to use, cleaning is as much of a pain as it is for any airbrush
-
Detail work is spectacular, great build!!!

Fine work indeed!!!
-
Flocking is very well done, should build up really well
-
Wow, that is a pretty good friend. I had to sell a kidney for my kit
-
Looks Cool Pat Does it wash off in a week
-
Have always loved the body style of this era Z car Your build looks great, will happily follow along
-
Ahhh an acrylic RC body, I get it. That is looking super cool!!! I found that the scale measurements in RC is way different than modelling....for example1/8 wheels in RC are huge vs styrene kit
-
