  1. You really did a great job on that bike, especially the way you did the spoke wheels. I build a lot of 1/12 scale bikes but I've never heard of that jig before. I clicked the link and they're back ordered anyway so I won't be getting one any time soon.
  2. Very nice build.
  3. Not much built yet, just some small assemblies. Here' the box art 1st: Engine: Shock: PE rear brake rotor. I put in on a Dremel mandrill in a pin vise and spun it by hand against a sanding stick to put in those grooves into the brake rotor. PE chain assembly: Swing arm assembly: Engine installed in frame:
  4. Like everyone else said, that's a really cool, imaginative build.
  5. I have the Grex Tritium which is also a pistol grip. It works great. You have to make the paint as thin as water as it very finely atomizes the paint and it needs to be very thin to flow properly.
  6. Looks really good. I love that sci-fi movie. I have the DVD.
  7. Looks great. Is that the metal kit? I have both the Mustang and Charger metal kits unbuilt. I have the movie on DVD. I saw it in the theater when I was a kid. That chase scene had everybody hitting imaginary brake pedals in the theater seats. Still a great chase scene too.
  8. I don't think of forums as "social media". Sure we can post pictures and videos, but we really can't connect with each other like FaceBook. There's no real information some stranger can get about you from them. Some forums I don't even use my name on, just a "handle". Even using your name isn't enough as there are a number of other people that can have the same 1st and last name as you do.
  9. FaceBook, sure glad I don't belong to it. In fact I don't belong to any social media. Now it's going to be called "Meta".
  10. Looking really cool!
  11. Beautiful builds. Did you know those Ferraris came with Chrysler stereos?
  12. Looks ready to putting along the road.
  13. That's a great double build!?
  14. Yes, but I think I did it with the tip of a silver gel pen. Now I would use Molotow chrome.
  15. I built it about 10 years ago.
  16. That looks really good. It's nice ship from a cheesy show. I used to watch it all the time in the 70's. I remember hearing about this new sci-fi show that was coming out when I was in college.
  17. Good build. The stainless steel looks good too. I got to re-watch the Back to The Future trilogy this past year or so on Netflix. They're still fun movies to watch. I have the AMT Blueprinter set from the 90's of all three versions of the car (still unbuilt).
  18. Very nice build.
  19. Really nice build. It looks great under the hood too.
  20. Very nice build. Con Air was a fun action movie.
  21. That a nice build. I thought they were only built as gassers.
  22. That looks real good.
  23. I painted the gold stripes as I did not like the decals.
