  1. Whoa. Wasn't expecting that. You really did some work here, lots of subtle details. Excellent.
  2. Everything looks right. Wonderful models.
  3. Some nice innovations. Beautiful.
  4. Pretty cool Pat. Great color choice and overall look.
  5. This year of Plymouth is easily my all time favorite NASCAR, along with Petty's and others. Excellent redo of a hard to find model. Looks sassy.
  6. This was an assignment in my commercial art class some years ago. We had to make an illustration using only cheap tempera water paints. We were only given the three prime colors of red, yellow and blue along with black and white to lighten and darken. All colors, hues, shades, etc had to be made by blending only prime colors. Temperas are cheap and fast drying, so challenging, but fun.
  7. Kind of amazing how much clean plastic can get through those tiny gates connecting the part to the sprue
  8. Monogram Cherry Bomb. I look at this not so much as a bonus, but part of the kit's whole unit theme. Same the other Monogram combos. Some of the bonuses in those early annuals don't seem very theme oriented and therefore more like a true "extra."
  9. That's because there'd already been a thread the last few years, but I guess there's always room for updates and refresh.
  10. Link from the December mailing... http://www.gslchampionship.org/news/ Only says to mention "GSL" to get the group rate at the Sheraton.
  11. Looking good. Can't say I've ever seen this version.
  12. Casey, I think the context you're providing is invaluable. I had no idea so many custom pieces were thrown into one kit and showing the instructions with the parts called out really cuts down on speculation of where something came from.
  13. If I were you I'd weed out some of the less collectable doubles, but otherwise, overall you've got a fairly valuable collection. Some hard to find stuff there.
  14. I'd have taken it back when he offered, no harm, no foul. It was a gift that I assume you presented unconditionally, which means he's not obligated to appreciate it. If he doesn't appreciate it and says "thanks anyway" then it's done. Certainly not a bridge burner.
  15. You captured this superbly. I think I just had a moment of nostalgia.
  16. It was, without question, a game of football.
  17. One thought on this Jonathan, is if the windshield issue becomes a sticking point, make the car backwards. I see you've already started the interior, but the back could be the front and you could just seal up the whole windshield and not mess glass or posts there. That leaves the whole front end to cobble in whatever propulsion you like.
  18. Some inspiration from Mike Doscher, one of my favorites of this genre.
  19. Always great to see some A1 modeling of some non-mainstream subjects. Thanks for sharing.
  20. An ambitious choice for a 24 hour build, but obviously one you knew was doable. Well done.
  21. Fun to see these. Thanks for sharing.
  22. Ah yes, I remember this. Nice to see more and better pics.
  23. This link is probably one of the more comprehensive single page resources I've found for the casual glue user. It doesn't provide technical data, but covers glue types and where/how to use them for whichever kinds of plastic and model material you want to glue. Though these glues have all been covered here before, this is a one (web) page resource. https://geekandleisure.com/best-glue-for-models-miniatures-buyers-guide-593/
