  1. I like these old AMT 32s for their ease of building. There's adequate detail without getting fiddly and they look neat when done. There are some body proportion issues but who cares. Neat rod David.
  2. Sell them on ebay. I'm not kidding, there seems to be collectors of old paint bottles. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=vintage testors model paint&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684
  3. Not a real big fan of this style of Corvette, but I love the kit. I've built two of the chassis and one full kit, with more in the stash. Here is one of my chassis when it was all done, I don't see that piece on it.
  4. Could have fooled me. I think it looks fantastic.
  5. I used Milliput once. Didn't like it. Mine had not separated the way yours has but it was discolored and getting there. Set up rock hard, difficult to sand. Two-part automotive putties have been much friendlier.
  6. His on-camera persona seemed less contrived and put-on than the rest of his reality co-stars. I hope his projects do the same.
  7. Excellent work Wayne. Wow, that BMF!
  8. Even if you plan to replace or reform the glass, I'm still inclined to walk away from a glue bomb with bad glass because it's such a bugger to cut and pry off the model without wrecking something else. Saws are hard to get into the confined areas to cut away. The surrounding plastic is weakened and/or warped by the glue, etc.
  9. Nice work John, you should be proud.
  10. That would be funny... yet entirely plausible.
  11. On this the body was polished with The Treatment wax. Like others have said, the color here was just too pretty to cover with paint.
  12. True enough. There are some kits out there with so much engine detail in the kit that added detail doesn't add that much more. Some of the super cars come to mind, where wires and brackets are largely hidden anyway. But older AMT kits, (64 Impala, Chevelle, etc.) not so much.
  13. I never appreciated him on MASH, but just loved him once I saw him do drama. He plays warm characters so well.
  14. I'm on board with much of what's been said, except for the police part. My assumption is it's being done by someone close enough to have access to his possessions, which means CLOSE family or friend. Are POLICE CHARGES really where you want to start this? Maybe later, if warranted, as a final action.
  15. I thought the race was okay, but I have to agree that viewers knew early on that the winner will not likely be the best car. When the top 20 cars are racing within the same second... all day... then you know it's just a race to a coin toss. I would think that at some level, wins like that would be a little vacant to the winners.
  16. No delivery. Pick up only.
  17. I'd start by considering the palate of accent colors already used by JJ. That said, maybe a baby blue version of what Jim ran.
  18. There's an active club in Fargo, which is about a half hour closer than Sioux Falls, but still 3-hours away. If interested check Red River Scale Modelers on Facebook.
  19. Yeah, that was good. Hurt a little for some of us up here, but pretty funny.
  20. Yeah, over the top cool. If you like intakes and want to toss an amusing nod to VW heritage you could throw on a window air conditioning intake.
  21. Beautiful truck. First rate craftsmanship and I like the color choice.
