  1. Beautiful car, color and build.
  2. I agree with everyone. A real stunner with excellent details.
  3. Wowsers B.....that would be outstanding! My eternal thanks if you can or cannot.
  4. Very period looking and that translates to coolness.
  5. Cooler than the other side of the pillow.
  6. That is super.
  7. Total beast of a kit and you crushed it. The lights are a must.
  8. A first round knockout. What a beauty. I would be proud to call that my own
  9. Wood eh? Truly old school. It is stunning and you are skilled.
  10. Bold color choice. A little more light perhaps? You keep knocking em outta the park.
  11. Man o man this is nice. Bold color choice that just Works.
  12. A couple underhood shots and the under carriage.
  13. The series can be addictive and considering the tomes involved that is indeed quite an accomplishment. I first read Lord Fouls Bane in 1981 at 17. I borrowed the other two paperbacks from Mums and read those as well. They were addictive to my young mind at the time. I didn't know of the second Chronicles for at least another year. When I found that out I sought them out and bought my first hardcover edition of The One Tree off the stand. I eventually revisited the six book series at least twice more before I put them all on the shelf for many years When the Last Chronicles were announced some years ago it renewed interest and I sought out all first editions on eBay so my collection would be a fine one. I also have two first edition Lord of the Rings books from that period and had inherited my Uncle Steve's massive collection of Doc Savage pulps around that time. I have been collecting comics since the late seventies so I had a collectors mentality. I have a few signed copies of the Chronicles as they were being released in the early 2ks. So my collection has been complete for some years. I may revisit the series once more before I go to The Land for the last time myself. The series is now 10 books in total and is an undertaking once you decide to embark on the journey. It is well worth it. I also have Donaldson's Gap series and some of his other works but for me The Chronicles remains his seminal series
  14. Seriously nice and the wheel choice is sublime.
  15. Love that car and movie. Well done G...
  16. Awesome color. Well done.
  17. It is as well as Xanth and Bio of a Tyrant. I am proud of my Covenant books as they are all first editions including the tougher to find first book in the series. It is my understanding that the outer cover paper was of a rather poor quality so getting nice examples can be tough. My copy is very nice. Lester Del Ray was notoriously cheap in this regard. Good eyes.
  18. I took it in the way you meant brother.
  19. Thanks guys.
  20. I will try that. Thanks.
  21. Has seen better days... This desk is 18 years old and the books have done their worst. I see it being replaced in the near future.
  22. A few more.
  23. I started this car so long ago. It has been maybe 8 years perhaps less. Broke it out and decided it was time to finish it. Like all things that sit for a while a few items have gone missing. One mirror and the antennae are awol. The ariel is not a prob but that mirror is something else. Wipers will be photo etched if I can locate the sheet. MCG photo etch set and wired with some minor plumbing and battery cables. At least it's closer than it was yesterday.
