Cool car.

Doesn't Free Time Hobbies buy stashes? I thought I read that they did.

I used to have a heck of a time with Tamiya gloss paints (not so much flat). I defiantly agree that mist coats are the way to go.

Very well done.

Great looking F1 car. Well done.

Great looking cruisers. Really well done.

Very well done. I like the painted grill & tanks.

Great looking Chevy. Well done.

I stopped by my local Hobby Lobby today to pick up the Revell Chevrolet Corvette C7.R (decent kit). As I was standing in line, the little boy in front of me, who was probably about 4 or 5 years old, asked me what I had. Well, I'm a nice guy for the most part, so I showed him and told him it was a car. He then asked me if I was going to drive it, I laughed and I told him "No, it's a little small." His mother explained to him that it was like a puzzle and that I had to put it together. He asked me how many pieces, and I told him 64 (after searching the box). He said that wasn't very many and that his mother did pizzlies with 1000 pieces. His mom also told him that when he got older, he could build model cars if he wanted to. Ambassador for the hobby. Anyway, still waiting in line, his mom & I talked a little about big puzzles, and I told her that my wife had recently completed a 3000-piece puzzle of Beatles songs (it's called A Magical Mystery Tour of 100 Beatles Songs if you're interested). She was impressed but said she didn't really know that many Beatles songs when the woman behind me chimed in and said that her dad was a huge Beatles fan, and that she only knows one Beatles song: the one she was named for. The first woman asked, "Penny? Jude?" to which the second woman replied, "Michelle". (The little boy is pretty interested in the conversation, by the way.) The first woman sad that she didn't know that song, so me being me, I started to sing it: "Michelle, ma belle, Sont les mots qui vont très bien ensemble, Très bien ensemble". At this point, the little boy looked up at me and asked me if I had a crush on the woman behind me. Well, we all had a good laugh at that, and I told him that I didn't know her, and she said that she was with her husband. At this point, I was next at an adjacent register, so I pair for my kit, and got the heck out of Dodge before he could ask me any more questions, or I had to sing any more Beatles songs. I just thought people would enjoy that light-hearted story of me waiting in line at Hobby Lobby.

Really well done. It's a great looking combo.

That's awesome. Really well done replicating your car. Very impressive.
