Excellent!!! Where did you find the mini leaves??

I screwed up!!! Even after all these years and all the models built every now and again you should look at the instructions. I'm looking for a web address (in English) for Fujimi. I messed up and I'm trying to find out if I can buy parts/ sprues like you can for Tamiya. I really don't want to buy another kit if I don't have to, while I like the Mercedes SLS F1 safety car, I really only need 2 sprues to get 6 front suspension parts. Thanks in advance

Just wondering if there are any detail kits/ parts out there for big trucks. I have found resin fenders and bumpers on good 'ol ebay, but I'm wondering what else is out there.

How do I make custom decals?? Is it as easy as having clear decal sheets, an image, and a printer??

Does anybody know of a set of headers that will work on the new Revell '57 Ford kit?? I'm building a gasser and I need a set of headers, stock manifolds just won't cut it. Thanks

EXCELLENT!! Just what I was looking for. Thanks

I see the pics in the magazines but I'm not having any luck finding custom parts for big trucks. I'm looking for rear fenders, wheels, exhaust stacks and maybe more that I haven't seen yet. I have a couple of projects in mind but I need to find the parts first,, or am I better off scratch building them?? Thanks Hippie

I need some help to find a fellow modeler. I need to contact Tony Sakalauskas from Canada. He was at our model contest a couple of weeks ago. If any body here know him have him contact me. Thanks Hippie aka Brad

ATTENTION. A small change has been made to the model contest this weekend. There will be NO model regestration on friday. We will be ready for people and models saturday morning. This is now a one day show. Saturday July 7. Thanks

Almost have my flintstone wagon conversion done. Its not a woodie though.

Nothing like lansing. But then again I've never been to Lansing. Just kidding, hopefully they have the one bridge done, if not you'll have a small detour to get to Ella Sharp park.

Bump

I'm pretty sure there will not be any fear of bird poo or kids playing with models at this show!

We will have signs dirrecring you to the contest.

The model contest will be indoors. They have large clear domes for us to put the model under to keep strange hands away from all our hard work.

Its a car show, swap meet, model contest, entertainment, and fun for all.

Did we forget White's Chicken Little??? They are family so I had to mention them.

If you facebook check out the club page: Rose City Modelers, Jackson MI. You'll find a copy of the flier there. If you still need more info just give me a buzz. Brad aka hippie

July 6-7 at Ella Sharp park Jackson Michigan. In conjunction with the Kustoms of America car show. Registration all day friday and saturday until 3, awards at 5. $5 per car load for spectators into the car show. No entry fee for the contest. Model contest will be held indoors. 10 classes. If you need more info send me a PM. Brad aka Hippie

I'll be there with 2 tables selling stuff. Models, resin and whatever else I can fit in the truck. Look for the Miller shirt with Hippie over the pocket!

We have a club up in Jackson MI too. Just show up on the first saturday of the month and be prepared to b.s about anything! We also have a contest coming up in July. If you want any more info let me know. I'll also be at the toy show this sunday (as a vendor). Look for the guy with Hippie on his shirt. Brad

Ok. I'm getting ready to start another project. I'm wondering what do you guys think is the best 1/25 scale Buick Nailhead. Maybe even one with a multicarb set-up.

I'm sure this has been asked before but I'm gonna ask it again. What are you guys using to clean the mold release from the resin bodies/parts ?? I went to Wally today and they had no Wesley's Bleach White. Did I miss something, or does Wally just not carry it? I've got a bunch of Flintstone bodies that I want to build. I'm unemployed so I have the time.... no more excusses!!

I am just wondering how many toy shows/ swap meets are coming up in and around me. I was thinking from Columbus Ohio to Ft. Wayne Indiana to Detroit Michigan. Thanks for the info in advance.

Just letting you all know. Toy show in Jackson MI sat. Feb. 4 2012
