  1. Got in a pair of bubblegum lights, a set of spotlamps, and 2 full length clear lightbars from PoliceCarModels.com. Also got in my set of Virginia State Police vintage decals in 1/25 scale. Hmmm..... wonder what I'm gonna do with the recent Ford Custom, Model King Ford, Del Rio, Ford Interceptor, and Galaxie 500 purchases I made in the last couple weeks....
  2. Need to get me one of these. Excellent work!
  3. Ok. I bought the Pegasus Vermithrax Perjorative Dragon kit to do up as a sort of "thank you" to our roommate for all her help with the house, but I've NEVER worked on a monster or person kit and am stumped. I have washed all the vinyl and plastic pieces with warm soapy water and have allowed them to dry. That is as far as I've gotten. 1: Do I assemble the model first BEFORE priming and painting? 2: I have a 2-part epoxy I plan to use for gluing. What putty should I use to seal up all the gaps? 3: If I build this thing before painting it, how on earth am I going to get primer inside the tight body places like the "armpits", leg joints, etc? 4: Not just primer, how am I going to DETAIL PAINT the same tight areas without using an airbrush, of which I do NOT own and have NEVER used before? Ideas? Pic from someone else's excellent work I found on Google....
  4. Fire Eater Chevy Blazer...
  5. SAY "WHAT" AGAIN!!!!! LOL!
  6. I need to take some new pics of mine with the pushbar and antenna installed, then sell it on eBay. i could probably get an easy grand for it if I advertise it right...
  7. Nabbed a '71 Ranger (finally!!!) and a Crew Chief Blazer today. Now I'm on the hunt for the other pickup.
  8. I told you I'll be back.....
  9. I want to be able to afford one of these kits in 1:25 scale soooo bad!!!!
  10. It's like "Which of the last 3 fat chicks would you be the least embarassed dancing with at the school prom?" Choice #1, just for someone "padding its bra"....
  11. All of them in 1:25, Javelin especially.
  12. I already have mine. It's in the perpetually growing stash of "to-be-worked-on-eventually" pile.
  13. Hush up with all that "FUN" and "ENJOYABLE" hobby stuff. I want everyone to get back to the very-humorous pointless bickering and who has the better/worst skills. Please resume your arguments while I restock on more popcorn.
  14. Or a strategically placed turbo boost under the wrong semi truck....
  15. I usually follow the scientific standard myself: krispikremius torus
  16. Got an AMT American Lafrance Ladder Chief today, paid $30 for it with a torn box. Doesn't matter though as I am researching local Virginia fire trucks to print off a set of decals for it.
  17. That would be a nice way to bring this kit full circle, from Ford Custom to Del Rio to Ranchero. I would definitely get one of those.
  18. I dont have an airbrush nor sufficient knowledge to use one, so I must stick with acrylic spraypaint.
  19. Went on an Amazon "Police Hunt" yesterday and bought... 1: Roscoe's Hazzard Cty. Police Cruiser 2: '57 Ford Custom Police Cruiser 3: AMT Ford Interceptor Police Cruiser Also went on eBay and picked up police decals I needed. Now I gotta source out the correct Dark Blue and Battleship Gray for the colors of Virginia State Police and my itch to do up some vintage cop cars will finally be scratched....
  20. I picked up both Revell '57 Ford Custom and Del Rio kits today since the Del finally showed up here. Now I got to figure out what I want to do with 'em.
  21. What did that Mustang do to deserve such treatment? WOW.
