  1. I've been using an airbrush for almost thirty years, and you're braver than I am with one. Charlie Larkin
  2. Oops, misread that. I may still; there are times BMF, honestly, is a bit too thin. Charlie Larkin
  3. This is an interesting build so far. I'd like to get one of the DS kits at some point. Charlie Larkin
  4. They have several thicknesses from 0.002-0.005", which is about BMF thickness from what was stated. Nice, big sheet, which is good. Microscale foil adhesive, applied strategically, should work. I may try this. Charlie Larkin
  5. This is indeed promising. Charlie Larkin
  6. Trying to cash in, no doubt, before prices drop to merely a factor of say, 3-5. Charlie Larkin
  7. Okay, let's try that again... Criminy, is that real?? Looks like some interesting stuff in the rows behind. Charlie Larkin
  8. A giant junkyard dio? Charlie Larkin
  9. To bad the '34 is rod-only. Maybe I can find a stock one on eBay or a show if I find I don't have one (I don't think I do), but yes, the stock parts should be included. I'd really like to see the '41 Ford woody get a stock re-issue. I'd love another one, as there are a couple of color schemes those look really nice in, and I'd like to do both. And...ICM is doing a new Model A? Keep talking. Charlie Larkin
  10. A bunch of departments around here are using these. I might make do one of those, along with an unmarked. Charlie Larkin
  11. After wrapping up a spectacularly horrible several days preceding, for giggles I decided to stop at one of my preferred shops on my way home from an assignment, and I was so excited to get what was apparently their last one. Guess they went right out the door. I haven't really ripped into it yet, but I really liked what I saw. Absolutely spectacular model. Very well done, and deserves all the accolades it's getting. Charlie Larkin
  12. I've often wondered why they don't use the very nice 1971 Charger, and do a Plymouth body and interior for it. As really a good idea that the cloning/small improvements are (and it really is), I think if you have a superior modern tool that could act as a base ready, to not too additional inserts to use seems rather silly. I would think it would be much more cost-effective, and deliver a better end product. Charlie Larkin
  13. I would love to see the Caravan and Mark V get turned into 1/25 kits. The GTO will happen. Charlie Larkin
  14. Pity. Off to eBay. Charlie Larkin
  15. Very nice 1/1 and 1/25. Charlie Larkin
  16. I found with a lot of the colors that outdoors is best, or at least near a window with good light. I took this picture of my Imperial outside in the January sun one afternoon to get a better effect for the green. I included an indoor shot under the dining room light for a comparison
  17. Very interesting. Are these still current production? Charlie Larkin
  18. Legos are probably very good therapy for your motor control issues, so this was a great idea from your kids. I had no idea these were so intricate. Looks pretty good when done, too. I hope this year treats you kinder medically, and in any other way you think 2022 fell short, Pete. Charlie Larkin
  19. I thought this was a real car you patterned it after at first, then...no. Stunning model, and superb photography. Charlie Larkin
  20. The Aqua is a nice choice for that. Very nicely done. Charlie Larkin
  21. Very nice on all, but those Jags.... Charlie Larkin
  22. Another one I'm hoping to see come back out sooner than later. I'll be watching this one. Charlie Larkin
  23. That hopped-up Slant is cool. Very interesting project. Charlie Larkin
  24. Good to see the C8 gap finally getting filled. Some other items of possible interest. Charlie Larkin
