Outstanding attention to detail(s). The most recent pictures finally convinced me, it really is, a scale model (yes, I belived your first posts explanations, but ... 😂)

Right on point, The Administrators do a incredible job, keeping the herd of cats--er--members heading away from the edge of the cliff. Having been guilty of less than exemplary performance in the not too distant past, I can and do agree with your T H A N K Y O U, to one and all.

HA HA.....you were kidding-weren't you?😏

Sure looks the part. Having the magazine in the background is a treat in and of its self.

Forum Change, Thoughts Having read all the posts above, those on topic and off topic, the confused and concerned, the generally just worried, etc. Then to a message I sent to iamsuperdan, in which, regrettably, I went off “halfcocked” . That message, and the following messaging back and forth caused me to realize that the thinking going into the purposed changes are both well thought out and ultimately, member friendly. “A sincere thank you [ iamsuperdan] for your responses and explanations to my concerns. You have, with good grace and forbearance made a strong case, both clear and understandable,for the changes -yes even to me. I am now looking confidently forward to the future of MCM Forums.” While some of you may disagree, argue against (or for), aspects of the changes as they come to light, there should be no doubt that the forums will become better and more functional for us, the members. Regardless of how the pay /tier plan comes out, I think from those responses given to my rant’s/statements/whatevers, there will be, after the dust settles, an MCM Forum for all that want to participate, regardless of any tier.

My only experance with those bus lines from the U.K., was the TV shows I see in the U.S. I always took it for granted that there was some determining factor for the colors. So thanks for the clarification. Now if only I remember the codes, I'll know just which city I seeing in the show [remember the colors, HA! with my memory? fat chance-sigh]

Good to see one of the "real Stock cars" again. Great model build.

Very nice work to date. I always thought this was one of the best showing Coddington's skills

Your polishing progress is inspireing and nothing short of amazing. Also a drat-double-drat on the trunk-er- boot lid dimples. p.s. 😉As a side note I once had, sadly lost in the Great Fire of Kindergarden, a recipe, for filling small depressions caused by dragon's teeth on knights armor. However, on reflection, I don't think it would have been usefull for your application as it includes Eye of newt, ox blood and spyder webs gathered on the full moon of the second lunar anomaly, plus smoke from burnt frog hair. 🤣

Sadly many models, (kits, diecasts, built) are much harder to find at Goodwill or any thrift type store now days. I used to, 3-4 years ago, see models cars, trucks, planes ships and occasionally figures on a frequent basis like 2 times a month. Now days it is a rare thing to see anything, maybe 1 time in 3-4 months. Even the Hot Wheels types regardless of condition, are more scarce. Of course I may not be "at the right place at the right time" but as we go to various thrift stores 4-5 times a week I don't think that is always the case. So I tend to agree that many stores now seem to be useing the internet as their sales tool and cutting back use of the store shelves. A result of our new digital age I suppose--sigh, I so old😢

Good to hear your Entex Rolls kit is in good condition. With it being "the Last RR kit in the world", that must put quite a lot of pressure on you to build it right 😁 It also seems you may be the forefather in the as yet undiscovered "Ecology Based Model Building". As such, you will become our "knowlage expert" on non/low toxic modeling- no pressure😉

Great car from the past. I will enjoy following your journey with this one.

Just finished the whole thread and can only say, WOW Great job of modelin'.

With my "completely organized"🙄 bench I find that my glue applicaters are always ...missing 😠. So I turn to the ever peresent tooth pick dispenser and use one of them. I do like the looper/sewing needle versions, when I can find 'em on the bench though.

🤣 ya just gotta love modern retailers

I knew it would buff out 🤣

This came out great no wonder you're stoked about this kit.

Great job. you certainly brought out the good in that kit. p.s. the vent window will show up---someday

Looks like a winner for sure. Sorry 'bout the repaint.

May I say WOW ? the Delehaye, looks phenomenal.

Looks very cool, like a road racer, but looking forward to how it turns out.

Good use of the old and new.

Well on a positive note and just because me an’ my computer don't always get along. I just renewed my subscription online. It all went through great! quick, painless, and with out any drama. Got my receipt almost faster than they took my $$$ ?. Thanks all.

uh, WOW! impressive figuring and plotting and stuff.

Lost track of your build, for a bit. Cought up to now. And that leaves us with Wow!. [no, I am not a professional poet ? oh, you knew that ?]
