foolishness with my nieces makes me forget I'm old

Since this is going electric I would include a feature that seems almost common on evs,so to that end I've grafted the moon roof from a fujimi new mini in, and since they fit the indents in cowl i'm probably going to use mini side mirrors too even though they will be near useless. and since I'm planning to use 20" wires and still want it low with fenders I chopped up a set of truck fenders to make a start on the them. My intent is to raise the fender at an angle and then use a second set to extend the front edge down. If this works i should end up with a similar look to some boyd style fenders and will give me the front wheel location I've got some more mods to come once the fenders are roughed in and the roof has set up some more

appologies for the late reply, motobitz had the lotus rims at one time or the wheels from the tamiya lotus 7 are close

have you had your circulation checked? thats how my foot/leg pain started and i'm on blood thinners and statins now which has helped a lot. still not right but much better

its not so much that they went out of fashion. it was a group of parents that didn't want disembowelled children so regulations were brought in about protrusions from the bodywork. the hood ormements on rolls and mercedes have retraction mechanisms for the rolls and mercedes use a sprung system to make them collapse in impacts

While my take on this doesn't involve what would be considered hobbies as such. When i was caring for my grandmother who had dementia we would go through her old photos and label who was who in them along with where etc. out of the 3 people that had dementia that i've cared for, she was the only one that could hold a proper conversation a year after diagnosis. while what i did was nothing special, i think it slowed it down and i'll tell everyone to do stuff like this. it doesn't matter what it is and its much better than a care home because they just cant spare the one on one time to do it. it can be as simple as having them fold the laundry or even just a meal at a dining table with no tech so you have conversations

its looking good. if you want clear to print better try lowering the layer height and printing it as normal. then after cleaning, but before curing brush a little of the clear resin over them and let it settle. now when you cure the parts the lines should be gone. you can also use clear paint but it takes a lot longer. this works better on small parts than windows

Very nice work, yours is only the second i've seen that has working features. all the rest have been glued shut

egos to the pub often and his wife gets angry

have those 36s had the front end and grille raked back?

what do you think of the isuzu bellet kit? its been one i'm thinking about getting but i haven't seen any built yet

awesome, i can build more tractors now theres something to put behind them

another to add to the list,

scotland is the only place whisky is made as all the rest are spelt wrong

With massive thanks to NerdmanB i now have a body to get started on. Since I'm in europe mine is going to be RHD but our tudors used similar shaped doors to those from the 3 window among other more subtle differences so the doors are now euro style with the locks filled with stretched sprue. I also smoothed the roof but i havent yet smoothed the cowl as the vent may be useful as the charging hub as i'm going electric. I printed out a tesla motor but it just looked boring so instead i've used 2 rossler promod boxes, some random parts and some vespa wheels to make a more intersting ev double motor. its not based on any motor, just made to look like it might be usable. Because i'm going for twin motors in the rear this will be a 2 seater only and i might use the dash and seats from the chrysler atlantic kit but thats not decided yet.

in the uk its only the colour the lights shine that matters. most cars have had all clear front lights for 25 years now and all clear rears are starting to be common now too. just look at the nissan leaf (you can scrub your eyes later, lol) which is as colourless as it is tasteless

Someti-i-imes i-i-it-t-s--s toooooo beeeee aaahhh wooooomahan come-on now, everybody sing along.....

Cool, i remember watching him on late night telly after the pubs shut

starting to slow down when posting replies now. 15.30 gmt on firefox with win11

that kinda crazy looking, i'm gonna be watching

you can reduce the scarring a little if you hold the piece in fairly hot water while you remove the supports

i'll happily vouch for the products. The aftermarket aircooled vw rims are the best i've had and the 17" wheel barrels are ideal for upsizing the revell corrado rims. i would like to get another mk3 golf wagon again if thats possible, i saw a really clean 1/1 the other day i'd like to build

one of the audi e-tron coupes drove past me the other day and it seemed to have a slight rumble to the motor instead of the whine most have. even the porsche ev has a that whine so the audi actually sounded car ish. It wasn't tyre noise either as the rumble was while on grass. still not as good as a powerful engine but it was a more pleasing sound. still not something i would want to own though

politician was the name of the ship that sank in the movie whisky galore but if you want to watch it look for the original cos the remake was meh!

I like them to have an engine but it doesn't mean i wont glue the hood shut and build them curbside. It really depends on my mood on the day, sometimes i just want something for my own shelf so an engine doesn't matter that much but if its something I intend to share its getting an engine but not necessarily the right one. for me the exterior and interior are more important as they can be seen without picking up my models
