  1. It looks good to me. Lots of pe parts and nicely done resin.
  2. Got all new bedding stuff, sometimes its the little things that make us happiest
  3. Iceman just sent an email saying he wont be on ebay soon, but he is opening his own store in january icemancollections.com
  4. Got a dyosha pontiac gto, box says 1964 but its a 72. Also got one of the revell 1/25 vw buses since its different to the current 1/24s. Also got a built up monogram model A, and the alpha models audi rs wagon
  5. I've been noticing a delay when you use paypal. It used to take the money straight away but now it can be 5 days later they take it. Its particularly annoying cos you think they've already taken the money but then find out they haven't when you get groceries and your card gets rejected.
  6. I've seen most styles on ebay in 3d printed resin, some custom versions too. There was quite a few vendors that had them
  7. If you have a pot of revell acrylic aluminum (usually free in the gift sets), adding a few drops of molotowe chrome to it works pretty well but you have to stir it more than you usually would
  8. isn't that how they make doughnuts?
  9. lambos are another brand i have loads of mostly due to them being parts of volkswagen. First is the hoonigan version from the recent sema show next is one from danton art in belguim and the jumpocan from the 2019 sema show and the liberty walk muira (dont worry its really a kit car) and I'll finish up with a custom countach again from sema this year
  10. I've found the search function on the forum is working much better since the last update,
  11. There's been alternative grilles on ebay recently. they were 3d resin prints if i recall it correctly. It might have been iceman collections that had them
  12. He's been pushing for kye to win and its not sitting well with the others. He seems to think everyone else should just lay down without realising or caring that they are all still in the running to win if ryan misses his tune, except for bobby who he told should be losing to them first round every week and bobby rightly said no to that.
  13. I'm in. I'll be trying to finish my disguised race car escort and now its not a disguised race car I can build it the way I would do in real life. Maybe I'll get it finished this year. I'm not sure which year the kit represents but I have both grille styles so it wont be a problem. I'll need to invest in a lot of decal softener as I plan to do most of the removable panels in carbon fibre to be more a modern style. It will still be cosworth powered and will represent a 1976 car
  14. I would say its your choice, and I'm sure I've seen dioramas with figures bought ready painted. It might not be accepted at a contest but if you're happy just go for it. At the end of the day its still your build.
  15. thats a later issue, the first is in turquoise plastic
  16. and they missed out what it actually means but you guys can look that up in the oxford english dictionary yourselves
  17. I ordered a new large cutting mat on amazon, instead of rolling it up they sent it flat packed in a box bigger than my tv arrived in
  18. Thats a good looking chop, and your scraper tool for the window area is something I'll try to remember. Such a neat trick but well worth it when the glass is fitted, tahnks for sharing it
  19. there's a thread on them somewhere onthe site, i think its called monogram something (possibly the original series name)
  20. The wheels i sent are model a but i have more bits in the pick up box still
  21. He's been doing that since the kill bill films,
  22. I've got an original but its not that complete. I think I may have put the engine and some other bits in the flathead pile i sent you. I'll look in the box to see what wheels are in it
  23. I'll have to be more careful when i use local to me terminology. For example if I was to write about building a wall plenty of people would probably get offended (or people in yorkshire might wonder how i'm building a stream) and the same happens in reverse too with some american slang/dialect. I know theres one word a lot of you guys use to describe high output builders that would get you in trouble over here as it means child abuser in my area. But thats the way of language, terms have different meanings in different areas. Its like the stories about chevy cars that renamed for the spanish speaking countries
  24. Theres a few 3d printed resin v12 lincoln engines on ebay. Some are hot rodded
