The ones I get come with a little packet of catnip to sprinkle on the scratcher. My cat gets the catnip and I get a parts holder. It's a win-win!

I've never seen another cat with markings like Brie's. That is the coolest-looking cat ever. Great that her personality matches!

Another beautiful 35b build! This is absolutely one of the best kits of all time and responds so well to some added detail and weathering. The discoloration on the copper piping is a great touch that I might go back and add to mine now I've seen yours. You really nailed "the look" on this one!

I just thought you were trying to avoid any copyright infringement issues!

I'm partial to Merlot Mica myself. Just realized that these pics were taken at two different shows and somehow I wound up parked next to a red C8 both times!

Octavia RS? Skodas are so much cooler than the VW products we get here in the US.

I was looking at a Mazda3 Carbon Turbo (ironically, here in Naples) a while back but I couldn't get past that Zircon Sand color with the Terracotta interior. It's truly dismal in person.

By temporarily placing this freshly-laundered blanket on my vintage Ekornes lounge chair I have now apparently made it the property of The Cat.

I haven't ordered from him since 2024 (as apolitical as I can make it) so I'm not sure how the process has changed. His wheels are excellent.

Soul Red is a tri-coat with a high-metallic red base, red toner and clear coat. Any single-stage paint won't capture the look. If I wanted to steer toward hobby paints, I'd try Tamiya Mica Red over Silver Leaf. That might give the right reflectivity and scale metallic look.

It looks suspiciously...normal.

That BMW will be well worth splashing out for the inevitable USCP detail sets. I can't wait!

Splash likes several thin coats before applying wet coats. It's pretty "hot". I was well forewarned the first time I used it and still had minor crazing issues that required respraying a couple of parts. It's good stuff but a bit finicky. Their Bentley Racing Green shown on the Tamiya 1/12 Caterham 7 below...

Probably the '30 Ford. It's an extremely clean build. As much as I like the Chrysler 300 overall, it has some foiling issues that work against it. This might be intentional for the junkyard look but it doesn't come across that way in the pic. The "tall T" is cool, but not quite at the level of the other two. Not feeling the '34(?) pickup or the '37 Ford, though.

Looks great, Mark. The Mica Red is a great color for this car. Sometimes I wish I'd gone for something brighter like this when I built mine as the metallic black I went with blends a little too well with the carbon fiber accents.
