Beautiful!
-
I'm gonna use candy apple red on it. I thought it would be a great color.
I can't wait to see another update.. bring on the red!

dang Marshall that looks awesome!

Thank you thank you thank you for the link.. I didn't know there was issues with the models from this company, I am so happy that this one was not one that has those problems. I am curious about the wood, you really would use real wood? I guess I figured most would use some decales from another model for what you want.. I am looking forward to more posts on it.. Thank you again

Welcome
I don't build (yet) but they still let me hang out.. awesome people here! -
Oh thank you for posting this. I was MIA for awhile with Christmas then a bad cold. When I came back to the changes the only thing I totally could not figure out was why I could not answer a PM that was sent to me while I was gone... Thank you

Hello and welcome
lovely ride you have there! -
That was me that mentioned the purple pond.
I'm going to do thinned Elmer's glue on the dice.
please let me know how it turns out
-
Anytime I've touched paint to flocking the paint just flows into the flocking. I think the dots have to be done first.
The Fiats are in the purple pond.
mind is working here and you really have me wondering if it could be done with felt.. 50 model car knives on dad's desk still, 10 colors of felt here... course all I have is elmers glue LOL....... thinking I am going to have to try it
-
Hey, a different pic! Who said you wasn't a modeler? Here's PROOF POSITIVE!!! Looks like ya was buildin the Monogram 66 flip front Chevelle. How'd it come out? You GO girl!!!!
who knows George it ended up in dad's Model Car World somewhere lol. I was probably 9 there from the when the picture could have been taken at my Grandparents house, I have blocked out a lot of my childhood but I can kind of remember building a model there. LOL evidently I did, we have proof hahaha

was it you or Terry who told me what the purple pond was? I wouldn't have had a clue what you were talking about LOL

I'm thinking of drilling the holes, attaching a wire or string, and then trying trying some Fuzzi Fur (flocking) on them. Hopefully they'll look like the fussy dice of olden days.
Marshall was kind enough to make a set and send them back to me made, that is how I knew what to do with them. He also had an idea of maybe useing paint or glue on them then tossing em in a baggy with the flock then dotting them with paint when they were dry, I don't know if he's tried that or not. the set he sent back to me turned out awesome though.
I would think if you could get the seams right you could use felt would take a very steady hand though

Hi Lyn, so you built the chevy blazer kit.......not a bad model ether, see you are a modeler like the rest of us. when i started building it took me a while to figure out that it didnt take much glue,i have some of them and i dont think you could get them apart with dynamite..........now i know its not one tube of glue per kit. it snowed here last night....want some? ill put it in a baggie and send you some? id ask Marshal but i know he dont want any......Ed dosent want any ether......what am i going to do with it all? ........I know......take a fan and point it this way , turn it on high......think it will work? i think i got my model of a 71/72 olds toronado from you....it was blue. that was the first real car i owned....i got lucky...my brother helped me out with it....sort of a early Christmas present . i had wanted to find one for quite some time. hes now got me looking for some for him....have a great day!!! thanks, god bless. mark
that wasn't my first build. it was a 55 chevy I believe I was 7 or so, of course my dad helped me put it together, he also painted it, but the funny part of that is I got to chose the color and when I did *chuckles* he must have asked me 5 times if I was SURE that was the color I wanted.. The color was like a dark grass green hahaha.. it so irked him to paint it that color but he did
not sure what happened to that model, pretty sure there is a picture of it somewhere though.... good memories good memories -
Yo Lyn. It was great seeing you and your Mom yesterday. Hopefully we made some progress. Your collection has certainly dwindled since the last trip. Terry was amazed! We both had a great time and are looking forward to the next trip.
Awesome to see you too Jim! I am still shocked that I saw some models that I hadn't seen before in there LOL. Hey make sure you send me a link if you use the dice I haven't seen any in a car yet

we had all sorts of cars when I was growing up, it seemed just normal then to have 2 novas or 2 corvairs out back or in the garage at any given time. now that I look back I know why he usually had two, parts cars. I also now know why all the kids wanted to ride with us hahaha. I think my fav was the van though I might have a picture of it on here.
Hahaha I didn't find the van one but I did find proof that I have built a model.

no pink dice then huh? *chuckles*

I know I sold a Jo-han one on ebay, reason I remember that one is that was my first car, a station wagon, my dad was going to strip and paint black with tinted windows for me, engine died and at that point i was MORE then happy with the NEW Plymouth Sundance I was driving, totally wish I knew then what I know now, what a cool ride that would have been! I went off of subject sorry lol. not sure if there is another one or not. It probably will be another week or more before I go back to storage I took 90ish models home with me.

oh how lovely is that! is that the AMT 6117 kit?
When I started to feel the itch to build one I first picked out the '66 malibu SS after I ran across the 1970 super bee the malibu was totally put out of my mind.
ONE day I will build it, in my mind I see mine yellow though. Of course that is a long way off.
Thank you for posting that is a beautiful model!
-
Hi Lyn, thanks for looking! keep me in mind....god bless. mark
you are welcome, eventually I am sure I will find something you need.
-
Hehehe Sorry I just though that a cat coming at your face at about 90mph would change your mind about painting that vette pink
haha I still am laughing.. as if he'd paint the thing pink, I bet he even hid it on the top shelf of his closet over night just to keep it safe from da pink. maybe he'll hang pink dice in it though?????
-
haha I love it!

I'm looking for a '53 Bel Air, '75 Duster, '87 Buick GN, and '77 Nova. Can you please let me know if you find any of these?
found a 53 something that Jim said you may be interested in and the '87 Grand national. Send me a PM we'll figure something out
I don't build (yet) but they still let me hang out.. awesome people here!
