Our January 2010 meeting was a success even though our President did not attend. Even though we missed him, I decided to cover for him and stop the people from their regular yawning!!!!

Well guys, Rey is one of the most talented builders in Puerto Rico, I am just happy that he is posting more of his work here, as you can see he is a very talented individual. Thanks amigo for sharing with us and I truly hope you can share more of your beautiful work with us in the future!!!

Great to see you are back Irv, we surely missed you man!! Can't wait to see some of your stuff again, not to mention that gorgeous Camino!!!!

Very cool man!!!

Good to hear you enforcing some rules around here Gregg, it was getting a little "dramatic" around here!!!!

Of course I don't mind!!

Looks pretty good, I just can't trade my old and trustworthy Badger Crescendo for this, I love it so much that I bought a second one just in case mine stops working or if the parts are not easy to acquire anymore. I think this one is good for beginners or individuals who are tired of their current airbrushes and want to experience something new and different. Thanks for sharing and I hope you enjoy it!!

I get that once in a while too, happens to a lot of us here. One thing that always motivates me and that I am thankful for is the club meetings, always keeps me going when I get in these little slumps. Another thing I just can't do is have more than one ongoing project, from the start, I set my mind to finish on a started project and I will not deviate from it, it's the only way I can complete something and not get overwhelmed with multiple projects or ideas....

That's right, there is no science on how to use an airbrush, it's just something that you have to go out and purchase and start using, anyone can learn in just a few days once you start playing with the paint and air mixtures plus, it's a lot more fun than cans!!!

The model car garage has a nice Stromberg Carburetor resin and PE set, a little tedious to work around but with a little bit of patience it turns out great!!

Funny thing is that, no matter how much is said about the '32 Ford, there will be hundreds of them at the NNL in April, it is a very played out subject but it's still a big favorite among a lot of the guys. Still, they should have came up with a different theme.....

Very cool!!!!

WOW Randy, you hit me where it hurts, I love VWs man, this one is just sharp, rims, tires paint and everything else, can't wait to see it in person!!!!

You don't see it but this is the beginnings of a tough, junkyard, tear it all apart dog training regimen!! Anyway, I decided to take more outside pictures this morning...... Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki

Hey Lyle!!!! What the heck are you babbling about, this is the most feared dog in the State of Maryland, even Vick was able to use him to make some of the money that got him out of jail!!!! Hosted on Fotki

I have always said the same thing Dave, only I never get to do another one, just never feel like doing it. One thing I will guarantee you though, the one for keeps will definitely look better, but then again, for the right price, I will sell again...

Playboy!!!

Same here, we are all a bunch of old farts!!!

I don't think it's happening this year, heard sales were'nt too good with the previous one...

Love what you did with that pickup bro, nice stuff!!!!

Thanks for all the kind words fellas, very much appreciated as always!! Jay, what I do when the rims protrude in this manner is simply sand away from the inside part of the rim and inside wheel, you know, where they sandwich together? This way, the rim accomodates better into the tire and gives it that "bubbly" and correct look. This happens to a lot of kits, not only these willys'. By the way, be careful when you do this on these rims, there is a chance that you may thin the actual rim to the point where it can break on you, it happend to me but I was able to fix it since I caught it on time!! Thanks again everyone for your kind words!!!!

Thanks George! Negative, the trunk does not open but I am glad that my panel scribing system is working, that's the idea, to make it look like it will open!!

Same here Lyle!!!

Very cool!!!

This model is for a club member, he won the painted body in the yearly auction but told me to go ahead and complete it for him. Of course, now I don't want to let it go but I must fight the urge Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki
