There You Go Getting All O/C Education On Us Again

I'm With Led On This One, IMHO A Nice Bright Chrome Is The Best Base For Pearls. Silvers Work Too But The Chrome Just Seems To Give It More Depth And A Nice Pop

Dirk: You're Brave. DJ-ing A Car Show With Such An Intimidating List Of Possible Songs To Play. Good Luck And More Power To You! I'm Surprised Nobody's Thought Of This One: "Riding With Private Malone" by David Ball. And Of Course There Are The One's That Have Been Said That Need To Be Said Again To Emphasize They're Importance: "Hot Rod Lincoln" "Sweet Caroline" "Highway To Hell" "Fun Fun Fun" etc... I Also Know Two Really Good Car Songs From A Guy Named Frankey Scott In Florida. "Model A Ford" and "Chopped Top Chevy", They're Rockabilly, And You Probably Can't Find Them On Limewire Or Anything Like That, But If You're Interested PM Me And I'll Send Them To You Somehow.

I say it's Real. The background looks photoshopped to be fake.

I've Heard Of The One In Pawtucket (Darlington Hobby) From A Friend Who Loved It When She Was Younger, She Just Can't Get There Now. Hopefully Me And Led Will Be Going Down There Soon. I'm Graced Enough To Have Hobby Shop Owners That Are Actually Into Modeling. I Think One Of The Best Shops I've Seen - When You Look At Diversity In What They Sell, Friendliness, And Interesting People Who Know What They're Talking About - May Be Harry's Hobbies & Collectables. They're Real Good To Me And Led As Well As (To My Knowledge) Everyone Else. They Give Us A Discount For All Our Support, And They're Some Nice People To Just Chat With. They Carry Everything I Can Think Of From Tamiya Paints And Model Masters To After Market Parts And Tools Galore!

That Was You? That's Some Nice Work Man. I Like Those I Love His Shop Though. It's Probably The Shop That Kept Me Into Modeling Recently.

I Think It's Time For Us Modelers To Show Our Appreciation And Love For Our LHS's. Where Do You Guys Get Your Stuff? Give Some Publicity And Appreciation To The LHS's That Give Us Our Fix. Personally, There Are Three That I Frequent, Hanson Hobby of Hanson, MA (Which Is Pretty Much A House Which Half Of Which Is A Hobby Shop), Harry's Hobbies & Collectables of Norton, MA Which Is One Of The Only Shops That Sells As Many Tools And Gadgets And Extras As ModelKits And Paints, And There Is My Personal Favorite J&J Diecast Collectables, It's A Small Place In The Back Of A Building Near A Police Station. Very Run Down And Hard To Find, But It's A Haven. And The Guy Will Even Let People Come To His House To Look Through His Stash Of Kits!! Thanks To All The LHS's For Keeping Our Hobby Alive. LDLD

Well It Wasn't Today, Or Yesterday, But My Computer's Broke So This Is The First Chance I've Gotten To Post This. With My 50% Off Coupon At Michaels I Got A Badger175 Crescendo. And I Also Got The '71 Hemi Cuda That I'm Looking To Put A 528 "KingKong" In. (See My Thread In "Wanted!" If You Need To Know More Lol) Got A Few New Detail Brushes And Some Prismacolor Art Markers For Drawing Up Designs Too What Did Everyone Else Get With Their 50% Off Coups??

###### That Paint Is Gorgeous! Have Any More Recent Pics?

Model. I Don't Know Why, But Something About It Says Model. It's A GREAT Build If It Is A Model, But It Just Doesn't Have The "Real" Thing For Me...

Yes, We Are Very Nuts Indeed. But That's Never Stopped Us From Much Before, Now Has It? I Wish You Luck On Your Search. Mine's A Lot Easier Lol.

Ooh! I'm With LedSled, Could You Get Some Pics Up, It Sounds Like Something I'd Love To Get For A Few Of Mine.

Oh Yea, And Not Just The Funnies They Give Us! Haha, I Just Finished A Book Actually, And I'm Starting A New One Now. So Ha. How's The '81 Search Going?

Oh No, I Have No Life, I Was Either Reading, Sleeping, Or On Myspace, Because I Am - After All - In High School. If It Was Past About 11 Then I Was On The Phone, But Other Than That My Life Narrows Down just a bit.

Actually The First Time I've Had History In A While Was This Afternoon Lol. I Guess I Just Didn't See This One. And You're Right I Would Volunteer You For Something I Know You'd Volunteer For.

Hey, just so it's more official then LedSled speaking for me, I'm definately in on the SE MA Modeling Group idea you've got running. I hope you can get everything settled down and start relaxing Jr. Hope things work out for ya and we can get something started.

Thanks Gramps, appreciated. I'm still trying to work out the kinks on the paint. This is the best it's come so far. I'll be back with later updates though. Thanks for the tips.

Meet Elyse, she's a 1967 Mustang Fastback and I just pulled her back out of her box after a long hibernation (I was having trouble with the paint and decided I needed to take a break from it). Well I've fixed the paint and this is the latest. http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff182/R...Fastback001.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff182/R...Fastback002.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff182/R...Fastback003.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff182/R...Fastback004.jpg So what do you guys think?

Well, I can't speak for all of the other 49 States, but I do know they're doing it up here in MA, so I think it's safe to say they're doing it nationwide Can't wait to get me some new supplies and everything else at 50% off .

Well I've been able to find the Plasti-Kote Sandable Primer just at just about every store I've looked at (WalMart, Benny's, etc.), but I live in MA, so that might make a difference. But I've never found it in the hobby or craft sections, it's always been in the automotive section.

Well paache is out of the running I suppose. And yea I can airbrush with noise, I probably am better with noise than in silence. In all honesty, I'll probably have headphones on when I'm shooting And I don't know about you, but I'd much rather support my LHS than a chain. However good they may be to us modelers, I'm more of a small business kind of guy... I can't help it Even if it costs a bit extra I'd spring for the one at the LHS, you know?

Dayumm! You say that's the first scale flame job you've done? My gahd. That's great. Look's unbelievable. Real perty.

Scalefinishes and Crispy: Thanks you two, I'm definately going to have to get me one of those. Especially at that price. Thanks for the heads up on the deal man. Evilone: I've actually been taking a look at compressors for a bit, any recommendations?

Well that's simple, I only had one shot I could put up. You want another? Here's another: Happy Now? Lol. I don't know if I already told you, but I'll be over later with some new stuff

Two of my first models that I've built in years. They got me back into this fine art and addicting hobby
