You're a knucklehead Ira. Fun stuff! Love learning your technics too.

Smells like Photoshop.

Say what you want about the kit, it's still one of my favorites. Biased by my fondness of the 1:1 versions. Done the way you've done it, looks soooo beefy. This should've been John Milner's car. Me like.

Are you kidding? I still have and/or use half that stuff. Some by choice some by necessity.

I like your style. Superb work too.

Looks like something that could've been sent out against the Jerrys.

Unbelievable. To do this from scratch is amazing. Sorry, gonna have the throw the BS flag on the "not a Lego geek" part. This is the work of a serious Lego man.

As usual, super clean and well executed. I like the quality of your photos too.

Yes, I LOVE that mouse-over-topic feature, saves a lot of time, a positive change. However that's not what I'm referring to... When I make a post and add photos I like to see what the entry will look like and be sure all my linked Photobucket photos show up correctly before I hit "submit." On the old system we could click on "options" that allowed us to preview our entry before submitting. If someone can confirm that's still there then I'll see if my Safari is hiding it from me.

I'm not seeing a preview option. In all my posts I preview before submitting so if something doesn't look right I'm not adding apologetic follow up posts explaining what didn't happen. That's kind of a biggie to me.

Beautiful. Lovely little car to be proud of.

Who knows where your interests will be when the days get short and temps get cold. That's what always brings me back to the bench.

It's really tempting for me to get in on one of these (I even bought some stock in it), but I really don't see a use for it beyond just goofin' around. Hard for me to justify the expense for what would be little more than a limited use toy for me.

Yours might have been the one I've seen because someone posted photos of one on here a while back that looked so nice it changed my mind about what I thought of these kits. Really quite nice in the hands of someone who's comfy with multi piece bodies.

Well, if we're including '60's...

This was fun to watch. Congrats to the finishers. And to the unfinishers, don't leave us hangin'

X2. He was in some bad B movies but I've suffered through a few on TV because he was just too cool to switch away from.

The failure in many of these is the depth of field... the blur in front of and in back of your subject. Those who have that figured out, along with scale textures and lighting have very convincing photos. John Teresi has it figured out. Aside from the obvious build quality, look at some of his outdoor photos.

Getting all those color separations is a pain the patootie, but it makes so much difference, and will really set off an all-black vehicle. This is going to look wonderful.

The closest I can get to modeling in the sum-sum-summertime is thinking about it while doing this.

Superb work Russell. I hope you can sleuth out more history like this. It's valuable.
