Now that's the jam, Tom!

Oh, I'm getting in on this... if I can find them. In a model rut, so I have been building puzzles.

The model! The photos! All done to perfection!

And let's not forget the ever probable '63 Chevy II wagon "Coco-Cola" version. Cause, you just know it's bound to happen. And that will be fine by me.

Box stock? Opening doors? Looks nice, tho.

Looks great! Like the black accents on green.

That looks great! Love the 2?2

Back in June, I found this 2007 Mini Cooper S with just over 39k. This car is such a blast to drive. More fun than anything else I have owned.

I have at least 30+ puzzles. A few are 500 or less, but the majority of them are 1000 piece. I only have a few pics left some are car-related, but not all.

Marty, that is awesome! Glad you are sharing here.

Looks great! Well detailed!

Nice! Also, I think most model contests would allow foil for a factory stock build. AFAIK.

Marty, that is one epic Mustang! Is that the kit with no headlight lens? And if so, how did you deal with that?

Does the clear parts come with a slight tint? Cause that would be a big plus in my book.

Nothing against Ford, but I would rather see Moebius go with the oft requested early Dodge Power Wagon.

Chrome headlights? Still? *~groan~*

Nice. Care to share some pics with the hood closed? That's beggin' for an outdoor shot.

That is a top shelf COE right there! With zinger paint and an OMG! look. What's not to love?

Hey, that is really sharp. I like the orange w/ black wheels.

Absolutely, Tom. In fact, many pro photographers will tell you not to assume that one pic we take will look good, so take several. A lesson learned from pre-digital age! Also, I still have my Mavica around here in it's box, collecting dust. Took the ol' 3.5 floppy, iirc. Can they take a memory stick? I can't remember.

Smartphones are great for when you need a quick progress shot at the work bench. Flash isn't all that good for close up pics. You will get better lighted photos if you add more sources of light instead. My "no flash" photo is lit with a LED gooseneck lamp, and another lamp off to one side. I'm using an old Samsung S7. These have great low light capabilities. Don't assume that you need to use a flash every time. And if the focus is off, back up a bit, and either zoom in, or crop away excess after you tap the shutter.

My first car was a '63 Chevy Nova. Straight six, three on the tree.

So the forum is so small, that there is no room for alternate opinions? Hmm. I must have missed that memo.
