  1. Welcome,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and what's an airbrush?
  2. I assume you mean the 4 or 5 foreign car models. I have no idea what they are. I think they are built by Rdean,,,,I also don't know his real name. If it isn't American and fairly old, don't ask me. And don't start a thread about how American cars don't use American made parts and they aren't built here anymore, yada yada yada, blah blah
  3. That is really cool. Great work blending it all together.

  5. I photographed this car last summer at the Richmond Nationals.
  6. keep stealing our ideas!
  7. Apparently Mr. Bohach was absent on the day they taught effective communications. Disagreeing with a writer's opinion and personally attacking their character are two different things. I went back to the Oct. issue and read Bill Coulter's buildup article and Larry Greenberg's review. They both clearly point out the flaws in the kit and both agreed that the new Revell kit is much better than the old, multi-piece AMT kit. Anyone who has been in this hobby more than a year or so would know that there is NO SUCH THING AS A PERFECT MODEL CAR KIT. When a kit has some minor flaws, here and there, a modeler corrects them. Bill Coulter and Larry Greenberg have been writing for magazines for over 30 years. Dare I say, they may have achieved "icon" status in the hobby. However, how many of us have ever heard of Alan Bohach? Anyone? Anyone? Buehler? That's what I thought!
  8. Great pics - thanks. Now I have to ask,,,,,,,who's the owner of the cute little twinkle-toes in the first picture?
  9. Here's a link to Reps & Mins catalog online. There is a new "WHAT'S NEW" page that is NOT on there yet, but I'll get it and scan it by the end of the week. The new page lists the '32 Ford pickup, '32 sedan delivery body and the convertible '49 Merc. Meanwhile you can look at all the rest . http://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc...casminiatureof/
  10. Thanks so much for the pics. Great stuff at the show and great pics.
  11. Go right ahead
  12. Come on guys. Get a grip. Why wouldn't anyone subscribe. If you buy them at a store 9 times per year, that comes to about $42.48 with sales tax, plus the gas needed to drive to the stores where you buy them means you are spending WAY OVER $50.00. I've been subscribing for MANY years, way way back when it was Plastic Fanatic. YOU CAN'T GO WRONG BY SUBSCRIBING.
  13. Congrats on another successful show. I hope to make it down there for next year's show,,,,,,,,,,,,,yeah, yeah, that's what they all say. Now, WHERE ARE THE PICTURES?

  15. That's Irv Arter's Caddy on the cover. And Marcos Cruz's green Merc is inside,,,,April, I think. I guess we can call Cruz "Miss April" now.
  16. Put the parts in plain old bleach and come back in about 1/2 hour. The chrome will be gone. Rinse the parts well with water.
  17. Just so you know,,,,,,,,,,,R&R and RMR are two VERY different companies. The '41 Chevy panel is from RMR. R&R is NOT known for quality products.
  18. You should have gotten Norm's '32. Did you run out of money?
  19. Thanks Cruz. Who knew you have to go to the Masscar Club to find the LIARS Club show! This is the most poorly advertised show I've ever seen.
  20. The LIARS web site that I've always had bookmarked is now gone. I've tried every possible search word. Is there a flier, directions, address, times?????,,,,,,NEED SOME INFO ON THIS SHOW PLEASE.
  21. Very nice build.
  22. Our club president !? More pics here: http://public.fotki.com/mamaprez/model-clu...eeting-and-a-1/
  23. Cruz - you going up early Saturday morning? I'm thinking about going. You have a ride? Let me know what your plans are.
