    Did amerang just rebox other folks kits? The reason i ask is I just won a amerang branded lamborghini lp500 and from all the pics it looks like a gunze hi tech kit box but the price was lower than snakes unmentionables, and possibly the cheapest kit i've got for a while. The other 2 kits pictured on the box look to be fujimi enthusist kits of the ferarri daytona and a porsche 911. Honestly, i only got it cos it fits in my vw collection and its a brand i've only known as a distributor

    theres a third option that i've never seen done in scale but might be ideal for displaying all your fantastic work. Have you seen the haynes manuals covers? not the best cover image as there are less cut away version that might work better

    there are resin grilles on ebay, and the motormax 37 ford pick up will give you the front fenders but it is a bit of work since the truck is diecast. I've got it in my build pile for the future

    there were some words that caused some problems if they were in a post. I'll see if i can find them. if it is those words we found adding a space in the word fixed it and alloewed it to post

    Frog made the first plastic kits before ww2. It was all aircraft in 1/72. the first plastic car kit was revell's maxwell. I had a couple of the frog boxes but they eventually disintegrated due to age. frog later just reboxed other manufacturers kits. I had the amt mercedes gullwing in a frog boxing but someone offered me more than it was worth so its long gone now and replaced with 2 tamiya kits

    None that i know about currently. It has been happening when the ai scrapers are opperating on the site. they seem to disrupt everybodies enjoyment

    The closest I've seen to that is Tim Boyd's fotki account. He has a lot of his features on it

    i'll save both your knees. simply put a pair of nylons over the hose attachment on your vacuum cleaner. it will make finding those small parts much faster

    revells stupid idea of putting the brake disc in between the 2 wheel halves. gravity affecting different dropped parts in different ways such as dropping a wheel and it eventually gets found by the curiosity rover or a bit of pe that appears in the washing machine. duplicolour deciding to "fix" what works so now their uk paints are a watery poorly pressurised joke, though the newer colours look great. nobody makes a plastic kit of the hartmann cadillac. 1/25 isn't 1/24. 1/24 isn't 1/25. that guys better than me so i'm going to complain instead of practising posts.

    Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it, the pics are posting and thats the bit that matters. Its probably the forum resizing the pics but if you have a photo host you could upload it that, then download a different size to see if it still happens.

    are any of the pics on imdcb any help? they might have it in the background of another car

    I made a chisel in school shop class, of course it was supposed to be a screwdriver but my mind was elsewhere at that age....

    it could be your trying to log on while they are doing maintentance or getting scraped by the ai bots. i know i've had trouble getting it to work sometimes since they added cloudflair security too.

    it kinda makes me think it should be filled with cookies and i dont know why as nothing in the artwork is related to biscuits

    sold the old fridge after nobody wanted it free, or for the very cheap price. So i added a tenner for a couple of days, then reduced it and it went fast. turns out i just didn't ask for enough money, lol

    1999.com have almost all the tuner kits. Aoshima, fujimi and tamiya all have lots of tuners and some of the racecar kits can now be converted back to street crs with the aftermarket and 3d parts. and the amount of 3d parts for tuners is growing all the time and with every kit

    with the shape of the truck body, and lack of detail on the front, i'd be tempted to tilt it forward rather than back. it would open up space for supports on the back wall and more around the wheel arch. i tend to print most bodies with med supports for everything (using lychee)

    The model t club of great britian were passing through orkney on a road run this week. I spent most of yesterday trying to find ford gunmetal blue paint for a project but nowhere would mix up a small enough batch. pics in no particular order

    Its my mums birthday so my cousin named a cow after her and registered it for showing. I hope it wins something, it would be funny to see my mum win the cow class next year.
