  1. I've been a fan of bisimoto since they did the mini van, and its kinda cool to see an electric car i would like to own.
  2. Some rwb porsches if your into that sorta thing:- https://stickydiljoe.com/2020/03/14/nostalgic-2days-a-visit-to-rwb-chrncls-vlog-2020-12/
  3. along with a wide selection of plastic strips, tools and some bug fender skirts this camaro arrived. it wont let me post the pic but its the amt 2017 in yellow
  4. Its very different here, we are supposed to excercise close to home and can only do so for an hour a day. If we were to drive somewhere for a reason that isn't work, essential food or medical reasons we can be fined for it. The police are enforcing it but as you say differnet countries have different methods so who knows who has it right
  5. Looks pretty cool, to update the post just go to the bottom and hit reply in the comments box the same as you would when commenting on another post
  6. Looking forward to the rabbit, i keep missing them when i bid and i need one to use my teddy bears on
  7. That looks like a nice piece
  8. after removing batteries
  9. Thats sweet, i was planning to do something similar to mine
  10. Plenty of times, i got a 99 mustang to rob the engine and other parts from, and have 2 amt camaros in the post for the same purpose. I've been hunting one of the custom pontiacs to use the frame and interior on a johan olds but they just aren't popping up at a price i'd pay for a donor. If kits pop up cheap enough i often use them to bump me into the free postage too, which is why i have a 1/24 stegasoras skeleton and a few airfix 1/32 kits that i use for shaped plastic as the shapes can save a lot of filling
  11. I'm glad you are trying to do what you can to help them instead of just getting rid of them. I will be following along for your updates cos its just too cool to see them mature. If they were crows, you would have friends for life but i dont know if any of the wren family remember as well as crows.
  12. Cool, it reminds me of chezoom but a more modern version
  13. Just arrived for less than a tenner delivered
  14. Could it be the back edge of the door making the roof look funny, theres something looks off there
  15. Cool project, I'll be watching. I've had one of these on my search list for a while now so seeing your fixes will help when i find one
  16. I saw the video, just didn't know what it was as we dont get stuff even close to that on the roads around here. fishing boats on trailers are common but never rockets
  17. By the sounds of the articles I've found it was a french military test. I would assume it to be khaki or sand coloured. heres some articles on it http://motos-of-war.ru/en/motorcycles/moto-chenille-mercier/ thers one on reddit too but i cant seem to link it but a google image search for tracked motorcyle will bring it up as one of the top results.
  18. Thanks guys, those are a big help
  19. If you want aoshima or fujim rim sets cheaper try 1999.co.jp or hlj.com. Both are in Japan but even with shipping work out much cheaper. An ebay search for resin wheels 1/24 will bring up loads of options, but for ones similat to those in the pic try hobby design as they have loads like those in different sizes but they generally need you to supply tyres. You can find them on the hobby design site or hiroboy in the uk usually have a good selection, however they are shut till this virus goes away.
  20. Way too many ideas to list, but every kit i buy has a plan before i buy them even if its just to be a donor for something else. I have got an idea stuck in my head for a 34 roadster with some styling from the newest version of the ford gt mixed with time attack
  21. I already have the monogram kit and a mcg grille and surround to fit it mate. The amt kits are kinda expensive on this side of the pond
  22. Its mainly the rear im stuck on, i think the 5 windows are a little simpler to chop. if you cut the rear window section out but leave the side windows intact on the body then chop them down with the rest of the roof. My previous chops have been a 40 ford, 62 bel air, 48 ford woody(sectioned too) and a mk2 jag. They weren't too bad to do because of the side windows. Its the lack of side windows thats throwing me off i think. I've had a look on the hamb and ccc forums but the chops they show dont really show where the cuts were done. Maybe I should put a post on ccc in the hope of someone having pics of the cuts or at least a pic of the chop before the welds were cleaned up.
  23. Hey guys, my next project after the hebmuller will be a monogram 36 ford 3 window. I would like to chop it but all i've previously chopped have been 5 windows and I have very little idea where to make the cuts for the rear of the roof. I would like more of a custom chop than hot rod chop as the plan is to use a la salle grille. Thanks in advance
  24. Cool
