  1. I don't know about Windows, but on Mac you can just drag the original post of the diagram to your desktop
  2. The bar has been set very high on the multitude of General Lee models we've seen on this forum, and I think you've done a terrific job. I would ask more experienced people who know this car if the ride height is set properly. To me, the front wheels look like they're in a mid-air leap.
  3. Just spectacular. Bravo. Can't wait to see it under glass with the hood and top on.
  4. Don't confuse the issue by bringing intelligence into the picture.
  5. I had a neighbor across the street who had a beautiful dark blue one with tan interior. He had added air and a killer stereo, and turned the face of the continental kit case into an electric clock with gold hands and numerals. Go figure.
  6. That's as good as it gets, in every detail. Not much left to say.
  7. By the way, it's BRUT (French designation for the driest Champagnes), not Brute. Fabergé BRUT It smells like a man
  8. In that case, it wouldn't be an Alfa. I had 4, including a non-GTA version of this car. The door handle of my GT broke off as I opened it.
  9. Have you got a specific logo and the dimensions of the model part (trailer)?
  10. Love it. A great job on one of the best Americn automotive designs. I think your color scheme is terrific, inside and out.
  11. You do great work. But I try to read your posts, and your weird font makes it very difficult.
  12. If you can do anything close to what you did with the Maserati 3500 GTi, you'll end up with the best DB6 model ever made. If you can do anything close to what you did with the Maserati 3500 GTi, you'll end up with the best DB6 model ever made.
  13. Outstanding. Is that the 1/24 Bentley? Almost no difference between that and the 1/12.
  14. Where is the TV coverage? This is the least I've ever seen.
  15. Avidly watching the very usual approach to this kit.
  16. Just a note to say that the holes in the frame rails aren't see-through.
  17. Recent photos of the oldest kit I still have, 1/12 Airfix Bentley built in 1974.
  18. Dave, your photos and dioramas are spectacular.
  19. If the magazine was a quarterly - identified as Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter and issue number, I think there would be much less carping than with a literal monthly ID. And it could be a heck of a lot easier to produce (and priced accordingly).
  20. As an ad agency creative director, my job was often to come up with ideas that more talented writers and artists would execute. I wish I could sit over the shoulder of a master modeler and tell him/her how I wanted my model built.
  21. The resident portrayer of Dracula for Hammer Films, with key roles in Lord of the Rings and Star Wars movies. He was 93.
  22. The Star of India (on the book cover) is a 1934 Phantom II Cabriolet by Thrupp & Maberly. I got the reference book below for around $50 in 2006; goes for no less than $300 today. Covers info on virtually every PII and PIII chassis number.
  23. Could you explain that further? I don't see what you mean. Your post assumes that the taillights had to remain on the tailgate, which is disputable.
  24. All of these modifications make sense only if you buy into Art's claim that the original design with the projecting taillights, if moved further outboard, could get knocked off. That's total nonsense and has no precedent that I've ever heard of.
