Happy Thanksgiving. Have a wonderful holiday. Cheers

See what over-educated-lefties do! This is exactly the reasoning they use, so they're going to tell you what decals you can and cannot put on your models. I guess it's ok if Little Tommy remodels the kitchen. Hummm wasn't there a Viagra sponcered car? I wonder how that fits into the picture. Opps, I souldn't have said that. They are probably monitering this thread. I guess Homedept isn't the only place where you can get wood.

I can believe that. A mode in person is never the same as a photo. In person it is almost always much more impressive. I have little doubt that is phenomenal just by looking at the pix.

That is not a a F1, some kind of LMP, ALMP, or DP car, looks like. The colors and layout are allowed as long as it doesn't spell out Marlboro anywhere.

Been using something similar for years. RC-56. Sounds like the same stuff. Same as Formula 506 or 560? Arlene's Stick it, a few other names it goes by.

Nothing to exciting, but I did get something. A AMT 67 Shelby 350 to replace my short shot POS junk. Eleanor is back in the werks.

that's classic... "I didn't know turkeys couldn't fly..." The "on air" bit is halarious... the horror.

it's a model. The I-beam straight axle is far to "heavy" to be real.

Impressive in such a small scale. It's one of favorites, too. Winningest sports car ever built.

Sorry I meant Mr Surfacer. Yes, its a modeling sanding primer. http://www.backyardarmor.com/Gunze_Sangyo.htm

It's actually a Canada Act citation, which virtually the same all over the world, now. however, is used in internation trade agreements with the US. US laws are therefore similar, but much more difficult to cite specifically, but is banned in every form of media but magazines, but again with global marketing it doesn't make sense to do it. Since most mags are published for both markets, the import of US mags to Canada must abide by the The Tobacco Act. Moreover there are several states with much stronger legislation in reguards to tabacco ads and sponsorships. Hollywood doesn't like actors to smoke in the movies anymore either for similar reasons.

Doh, I see the problem. There is no www. in an email addy.

Indeed you did. Hummmm, interesting.

Hey, thanks. It's not that hard to build; just a little thought going in to it. If people are interested I will layout the basic plans.

I agree with Metalizers. Here is a few tricks. For cast iron or aluminum textures. An old bottle of Mr. Sealer. I do what you do. Dab it on to replicate the texture. Then Metalizers over that. It's an extra step but works. Letting the Metalizers dry out a little helps with brushing them.

At least I gave him the benifit of the doubt. It's been real; it's been fun but not real fun.

I am sure lots of people would be interested. I was interested. Otherwise I wouldn't have posted anything to this tread. It's the presentation that is lacking. Nobody in their right mind would give this guy a nickel. Obviously, he is the uninterested party. He is not interested in 1:25 scale, not interested in listening, listening to what people are interested in, not interested in genune help, not interested it suggestions, not that intersted boats from what I can tell: seems to be more interested in 1/16 dragsters, motorcycles, your money, getting covered in a magazine, and being able to say it's the only one in the world. Which there isn't anything wrong with that, except the asking for help and money part. Just do it, build your boat, but don't come around asking for help and money if you don't have anything to back it up with. Darin is right, "It doesn't work that way." I run into the same thing with newbie screenwriters all the time. They want to write for themselves, not the audience they should be writing to, and they do it with total disregard for good visual storytelling, story mechanics for FILM, and in a standard scriptwriting format. Then they are pissed off at you because you told them their script sucks because that's the only thing they ever hear and then wonders why nobody will pick up their script.

It is actually law. The Tabacco Act 1997 Sec. 22 Any direct or indirect sponsorship that is associated in any manner whatsoever with the promotion of tobacco, a tobacco product, a brand of tobacco product or a manufacturer of tobacco products, is prohibited. Sec. 23 Sports, cultural or social events. Furthermore, no name, logo, brand element, design, image or slogan, except a colour, that is associated with tobacco, a tobacco product, a brand of tobacco product or a manufacturer of tobacco products, may be associated with a sports, cultural or social event, except in connection with a sponsorship referred to in section 22. 1998, c. 33, s. 23; 2005, c. 29, s. 26. Sec. 24 advertising 24. All direct or indirect advertising for the promotion of tobacco, a tobacco product, a brand of tobacco product or a manufacturer of tobacco products is prohibited where the advertising 1) is directed at minors; 2) is false or misleading, or is likely to create an erroneous impression about the characteristics, health effects or health hazards of tobacco; 3) directly or indirectly associates the use of tobacco with a particular lifestyle; 4) contains testimonials or endorsements; 5) uses a slogan; 6) contains a text that refers to real or fictional persons, characters or animals; 7) contains anything apart from text, with the exception of an illustration of the package or packaging of a tobacco product occupying not more that 10% of the surface area of the advertising material; 8) is disseminated otherwise than in printed newspapers and magazines that have an adult readership of not less than 85%; 9) is disseminated otherwise than by means of displays visible only from the inside of a tobacco retail outlet; 10) (subparagraph repealed) . Factual information. However, advertising that is intended to provide consumers with factual information about a tobacco product, including information about the price or the intrinsic characteristics of a tobacco product and about brands of tobacco products, is permitted to the extent that it does not constitute advertising or a form of advertising prohibited under the first paragraph. Minister's warning. Advertising disseminated in printed newspapers or magazines that have an adult readership of not less than 85% must include the warning attributed to the Minister and prescribed by regulation concerning the harmful effects of tobacco on health. The advertising must be forwarded to the Minister on being disseminated. 1998, c. 33, s. 24; 2005, c. 29, s. 27. Interpretation. 24.1. Indirect advertising for the promotion of tobacco within the meaning of the first paragraph of section 24 includes the use, on a facility, a vehicle, a sign or any other object that is not a tobacco product, of a name, logo, brand element, design, image or slogan that is not directly associated with tobacco, a tobacco product, a brand of tobacco product or a manufacturer of tobacco products but that may reasonably be said to evoke a brand of tobacco product or a manufacturer of tobacco products because of its graphic design, presentation or association with a tobacco display stand or a tobacco retail outlet. 2005, c. 29, s. 28. In addition, IIRC there are specific additional laws regarding tabacco in magazines. Far too much liablity for a Modeling Mag to publish pics of smokes.

I hear ya brother. I am sorry I even got involved. So much for trying to help a guy out.

Maybe so... however, from what I read at Large Scale and Scale Auto you are not getting to much of a different response there either. It's probably telling you sumin. eh? BTW ya maroon those are not programs. They are actual 3ds models. There is a big difference.

Advanced Modeling Syndrome (AMS) got you down? Have you been diagnosed or know somebody with AMS? Maybe you think you may have AMS? You probably do. Well help is on the way. There is now a treatment program for those suffering from AMS without expensive therapy, electro-shock treatment, or medications. No more starting 20 kits and starting five more before the first one is finished. No more five-year stalls on project that would only take another few weeks to finish. No more talking about it on the Internet and then feeling bad because that’s all you have accomplished on it for the last five months is talking about it. No more stillborn projects that you loose intrest in. Take back control of your modeling and JUST DO IT. Wouldn’t you like to have just one model on your bench again without have 25 hanging over your head. This is a public service announcement from the AMS Solutions Society AMSSS. See your participating LHS or IPMS chapter for further information and help because you, too, can recover from AMS.

don't make me use the "M" word.

your email bounces back.

Let's.

I read scripts on and off, and read a script from another guy who did a story about Mickey Thompson. It wasn't any good, nor did he have any rights to the story, so I crushed him like a bug. Good luck with that, it's a tought racket. I know first hand, and have some connections in Hollywierd.
