I have one in started in 2016 after my heart surgery. I should dig it out. I went with the flattie with a bunch of Norm Veber pieces. I'm keeping the body stock. They are nice kits.

What Did You See In Your Yard Today?
bobss396 replied to Tim W. SoCal's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
We went out to Montauk this week. It was warm, around 66 F. The lighthouse was not open, the gift shop too. -
38 F and real chilly out there. I got my lawn sprinklers blown out a few days ago. Picked the last of my garden yesterday.

Well... a parking lot is sort of a road. We were out at Montauk yesterday and right next to where we ate was a boat yard. We got to watch this large boat being picked up and moved for winter storage. -

Birds taking a bath in the cover of my recyclables pail. Yesh, I know my glass table top left the chat last week... 20251014_081252.mp4 -

Iceman for sure, he has 4 and 5 slot wheels. Also try WFC Motorsports on Etsy. -

Westerns? I've been getting into them in the past few years. BUT...Will admit that I'm getting tired of Audie Murphy. My cable provider has a couple channels with old series and some good movies going back to around 1946.

AMT '60 Ford pickup

Very nice! I have one coming up and will use the '57 conversation from Texas 3D. -
45 F and gloomy. It isn't supposed to rain until next week. But Island living... you can never be 100% sure on anything the weatherman says.

Testor's Purple Question
bobss396 replied to oldcarfan's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I found the real Plum Crazy in the Mopar touch up line that looks great. -
What I do like is Ace Hardware paints. I use a couple of gloss grays mostly for stock car chassis. I did one the other day, no real waiting for it to dry. I can handle it to paint the other end within an hour. I use a lot of TS sprays and like them. My other weapon of choice is Mopar touch up sprays. They don't have the blush issue I'm getting with Duplicolor products.

I used to BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH all over Testors enamel until I saw some great builds that used it. I did a black paint job for one of my kid's friends, used the Rustoleum primer and paint, all in 1 can. Gloss black, it came out great. I think that someone that struggles with hardware store paints will struggle with any paint. I realize that some modelers have no access to hobby paints, or try to save a few bucks where they can.

West Islip, off the RM causeway.

This cat is aloof... not much in the personality department. Not a lap cat either. Temperamental and will hiss for no good reason.

54 F and still raining and windy. It howled all night long. I turned off the lawn sprinklers for the season.
-
I follow some modeling groups on FB and 99% of paint woes involve Rustoleum paint.

This is my girlfriend's daughter's cat, Mr. Beers. A stunning specimen of a black cat. He just turned 8.

I haven't been around since Monday night. Here's what happened
bobss396 replied to Can-Con's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I had the opposite issue a couple years ago. TOO fast a heart beat. I had an ablation done, stayed the night in the hospital. Been fine since.
