No, it was before that. December was when I was taking another swing at it, found out the spindles were missing then it ground to a halt and I got distracted by my Freightliners and now my diorama. If you don't think it qualifies, that's OK.
Steve,
Welcome to the forum. My life parallels yours surprisingly. This IS a wonderful community of builders. I am often blown away with their skill and creativity. Enjoy the ride!
Timothy, Very nice work on your custom parts there. I would be interested in one of those headache racks. Here are a couple of ones I fabricated recently.
The graphics seem a little over the top. But I imagine in a display case full of builds, your average non-builder would be drawn right to it like moth to a flame.
Thanks for the heads up. We shall see what my enthusiasm is for that (when the time comes). Except for the forums, I have no discerning audience around here that will even notice if I do or do not.
I just purchased my kit. (HL $17.99) I am absolutely going to make a cop car. Have not decided on which municipality yet. I will make my own decals. I do realize I will have to fab some B pillars for realism. It may be a ways down the road though.
Try using Testors "Windowmaker". Apply drops as needed with the lenses facing up. It self wicks to the edge, dries clear and is fairly glossy. And if you don't like it, you can gently pick it off in one piece with a pin or toothpick.
