48 ford woody (gluebomb series) > rodded> 99% done pics
bobthehobbyguy replied to crazyrichard's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Very imoressive. Love the weathering. Think the bench seats for the interior were the right choice. As always itscfun to watch your projects come together. The medical tape on the top looks great. When you added the color over the rust did you thin the paint? What type of brush . Definitely interested in hearing more on the technique. -
That paint is gorgeous. Great color.

Wow you've nailed the art deco look. Love that the body is almost stock. Would not look right if it was all blended together. Looking forward to more. -
Master Modeler?????
bobthehobbyguy replied to curt raitz's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Whether it be master builder, pro built, vintage , rare it is just marketing hype. A well done model speaks for itself. Rare or vintage seems to mean its been on the shelf for more than10 minutes for some. -
Trim painting clean up

Another idea would be to use a postit as a shield. No chance of the adhesive causing problems. -
Very nice work. The paint work is amazing. Nice group of models.

Along the same line is food packages is all nature ingredienrs. Well hemlock is natural but I wouldn't want it in my food.

Ray I see it as a fun build not a silly build. One of the pleasures of modeling is being able to do whatifs that you never do fullsize. Wow 625 cobras. Think that is an obbession rather than collection LOL. Keep on showing more new cobra styles.

My other favorite is the bags of microwaveable popcorn corn. Warning contents may be hot. I understand that some of the warnings are a result of lawsuits but I hope some of them are just overlill.

Was looking at a jar of peanut butter. Back of label has warning stating it contains peanuts. Duh.

Cool idea. Be fun to do a real one just to aggravate the purists.

Here is an interesting article on things to consider with 3d options. Interesting food for thought. By getting a inexpensive printer as described in this thread you can get a feel for the process. Just a thought. http://makezine.com/2017/01/10/3d-3ways-comparing-prototype-filament-printing-resin-cnc/

Model Cars Magazine Renewals
bobthehobbyguy replied to Gregg's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
First off what you are describing is how magazine subscriptions work. There is also crowdfunding where a goal is set and funds are raised To finance a project. I plan to support the magazine by buying it at the hobby shop when it comes out. I will consider a subscription when a plan for getting the magazine back on track is provided. Had subscriptions to lots of magazines that just went away. Lots of good intentions however the realities got in the way. I'm not in a finicial position to gamble on something that may or may not happen. -
The interior work and the additions to the top are great. Paint looks great.
