  1. Slick.
  2. Not many of those Cougars show up in this gallery. Nice to see it and I like the vinyl top too.
  3. Just checked all the dazzling updates. All I gotta say is...
  4. I've got parts of the Darth Vader van. As Dave Van says, not much to them. Small, low parts count. They do look kind of cool though. Might have done okay if it was a 1/25. More so than, say, the bathtub show car.
  5. There's something about the old marker art that's so much more pleasing than photos or airbrush. Not that those are bad, just that the hand drawn marker art is so marvelous.
  6. Wonderful pics. Nice way to wind down before bed.
  7. Just... Stunning.
  8. Charm goes a long way toward making a woman beautiful. I think Julia Roberts is trout ugly but her irresistible charm makes her multi-platinum.
  9. ∆∆ This ∆∆. Keep your tools and select kits and thin out the rest at a swap meet. No packing and shipping woes.
  10. Late-season update: Nothing done. But with the northern chill moving in, it's almost model season again.
  11. The blue accents are graphically risky, but I just love it. A bold choice that really adds interest.
  12. Everything above is valid. I will just add this... This kind of stuff still brings a ton of interest at the auctions. Piggy-back your models onto someone's auction, or work with an auction company to gather up your stuff and they'll add it to a weekly auction. Your family doesn't have to deal with it, the models will go to collectors and resellers and the auction company may come and get 'em up for you and they don't go to the trash You may well have to give up 30-to-40 percent for their commission but basically, you give up some of your value to pay someone to do the work for you.
  13. In the outdoor advertising business (which is essentially what we're talking about here), less is more, and that's why I like this. Bold, instantly defined and sponsor pleasing.
  14. For filling and shaping, this...
  15. That's great that you put forth the effort to bring modelers together like that. Some quality builders brought some good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
  16. It appears to be lowered a bit too. Definitely, let it out to be seen.
  17. A lot of work paid off. Well done, I very much like it.
  18. Her relentless, non-negotiable, black white and grey color pallet for every flip is what makes me sharpen my pencils. Can't watch it anymore.
  19. They're beautiful kits and you did a splendid job on it. The kit was produced in big numbers and under appreciated, which make them one of the nicest cheap kits you can get.
  20. Amazing work on some of those pieces. I keep going back to the hubcap. I'm not sure what's going on there but I don't really want to know. It's enough that it holds my attention and keeps me thinking. I wish my town had that kind of a repurpose exhibit.
  21. Somewhere there is a mountain of highly desirable, collectible and flat out rare vintage kits ravaged of pieces, and will never be built or enjoyed by anyone again. You know, that holy grail kit you were outbid on.
  22. X2. I was just out of high school and those were the paint jobs that got me totally jazzed about paint and body. High impact and seemed so do-able. Glad to see Centerlines on the table. That speaks '80s to me.
  23. Sadly, mine go straight back into the boxes and put away. Until I have a proper display case and location, they are too precious to get filthy sitting out. I show them from time to time I want them clean and protected. Besides, nobody who visits my house would care enough to notice them.
