To scratchbuild one get the best 4X4 military truck you can find, throw away cab and all safety features and build the cargo bed. No need to be overly neat, no stinking fillers needed, weather to the max, then a lot more. Bonus points for mismatched bald tires with missing chunks and something stuck between the duallies.

Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II Drophead Coupe
Big Messer replied to Perspect Scale Modelworks's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Looks like the front door should be longer and the wheelbase shorter. Pretty common. When doing a conversion like this I first take pictures of the original model and then mess with them in any photo editing program. -

I subscribe to the theory that we are dead already and this is hell. How much worse it can be?. (waiting for next week news). -
Can we go lower?, I am deeply afraid...

That's depressing...

Don't do today what you can leave for tomorrow. Don't do it yourself when somebody else can do it for you. When you feel like working stay in bed until it is over. -

Another ( Great & Fun ) 'Rescue & Revitilise' YouTuber
Big Messer replied to 1972coronet's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Simon Fordman. He does this kind of resurrections from time to time. What I like most is when he makes a mistake he shows it and how to correct after. If you are interested there is also Budget Buildz. -

BMW 507 Cabrio 1957 - Elvis Presley's one - Revell old kit 1:24
Big Messer replied to CrazyCrank's topic in WIP: Model Cars
WOW!. Only way to top this off would be to remove the gas cap and actually smell like gas (maybe you did?) Just for fun, put one of the old grilles against the new ones.- 112 replies

I haven't been around since Monday night. Here's what happened
Big Messer replied to Can-Con's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Wife had a somewhat close "incident": went to the hospital for an unrelated matter, passed out briefly and walked out 3 days later with a pacemaker. Couple friends were admitted for "not feeling really well". They got quad bypasses...
