Yes, please do. Post your own pictures here, why not? Go for it.

It's amazing what a little bit of energy, inspiration, and styrene addiction will do to ya! Keep the eye candy flying, folks! It's a wonderful time to be a model builder!

All right, Mike, it sounds good. Yes, I've always wanted to do one of those 24 hour build things, and I just might if I survived this one.

It says over 200 people are in charge of the operations and maintenance.

Wonderful eye candy, Barry. Love the pack-running pictures. Pure joy! Happy, happy!

Cool, more company. Well, here we are Saturday morning. It is freaking cold too which basically means that as soon as I am finished with assembly I am going to use Vallejo Acrylic Primer to primer this build. It works great for small, quick projects like this. But we still have a long day ahead. Stay tuned in for more . . . Rise and shine, you early birds, it's time to hit the bench!

Thanks for the information, Joe. Yes, in order to do this kind of layout you need deep pockets or a way to recover your expenses . . . those airplanes taking off and the boats moving across water are unBELIEVABLE.!

Love it, it's amazing how you guys can do that, from drawing to the computer. Sweet ride with all the right flavor and attitude.

Glad you got to see it, Liam. I'd like to know the background of how it got started, who put up all of those millions to get it done and maintained. The country? The city? Tax payer money? I wonder.

I did, look above your last post.

If that still doesn't work, go to YOUTUBE and search for "Minatur Wunderland***official video 2012*** That will get you there.

Okay, here it is again.

Liam, it's working fine . . . give it another try.

Folks, I had forgotten how utterly ugly this vehicle was/is. It's giving me a hard time trying to line up the front facia/grill, the hood, the side back window inserts . . . I don't know, suddenly it's not as easy as I thought it would be. But I am determined to keep working on it.

Michael, I vote for B. Oh man, I'm still going . . .the parts are clean and ready for assembly, but I am not also gathering parts to mechanize this thing, gizmofy it! This Gremlin looks sweet at first, but the front facia doesn't fit right, the hood with the scoop doesn't sit right. The side rear window inserts don't fit right. I busted a post . . . Gotta get the torch out and fix it all up. I had forgotten how terribly ugly this car really was/is. But I think it's going to make a good TZH! Shane, you sure can, welcome to the 3-DAY building madness marathon!

LOL! Where are they now? Doing meth in the desert somewheres?

Feast your eyes, my friends. If you haven't seen this one, keep your jaw and eyes from falling off your face!

Crappy printer = flash, dings and dents? Warped parts, etc . . . maybe. Very interesting. The future is so bright I might have to wear a welder's helmet!

Erik, I like the graphics. . . .hum, interesting gas can and I am sure the rest of the vehicle is going to look killer.

Suddenly, I am no longer feeling so alone. Got the parts out of the bubble bath and dry enough to start cleaning them for gluing and assembly, then comes primer . . .right, like I am already getting ahead of myself.

Thanks, Phil. I hope EYEGORE survives this one!

Rodney, that's a great way to do the weld seams. I use a pocket WELLER, and it works very well too. It's slow tedious work but the results are really wonderful in particular when the paint goes on.

Barry, more fantastic work from you, and those action photos are amazing. I sent you a PM, buddy, did you get it? Check your in-box. Keep up the great work, DC

Is any body having trouble aligning the front grill to the body?

Kenn, that's fine. It's perfect. I will probably do some work on it during the night myself. Time is a-flying, so we have to get busy.
