    That's huge! What scale is that supposed to be?

    Nice details on the cannons. Did she really have bronze cannons?

    Nice looking dump truck. Well done.

    That's an interesting concept. Since they were only made from 1972-74 I'm guessing that they weren't very popular.

    Nicely done. Beautiful background.

    They are looking really nice. Sailing the Soleil must have been like sailing a bathtub, although contempory reports said she had "good sailing qualities"; whatever that means. Remember that whole "cod & herring" thing? Great for a submarine, not so hot for a surface ship. The max speed of the Thermopylae was probably about 17 knots. The Soleil would be lucky to make half that.

    Nice looking engine, Angel.

    Looks nice, KJ.

    From the information that I have, the kit represents a 1970-71 C-11664DFL.

    Nice looking little U-boat. Very well done.

    That looks awesome, Charlie. Very realistic & spot on to the 1:1.

    The only one that I know of is from Illini Replicas: http://apps.aitruckmodels.com/Gallery/ It's a 1955, and it's on Page 2.

    Nothing like a little artillery to clear traffic!
  14. Jim B
    Extremely realistic! Very will done, Charles. Excellent replica.

    It's heat shrink tubing. It's used for electrical work.

    I just checked here: http://public.fotki.com/modeltrucks25thscale/model_magazine_articles/modelcars/ They have the July/August article & only part of the October. No September.

    Really nice work, but I didn't think the Bullnose KW actually tilted. I thought it was more like the Cannonball GMC.

    That's really neat! I thought they just made that up for Santa Claus is Coming to Town. I had no idea that they were real. People made the Model T into just about everything. I've even seen them with railroad wheels.

    You aren't going to put this beautiful model on that cradle are you? This deserves turned brass pedestals at least.

    Gary can be quite slow in responding to emails & such; but I have never had any issues with the quality of his work. It is probably easier for me to get thins from Gary, though as I am local to him & usually see him at shows around Central New York.

    Coming along nicely, Kenneth. Well done on the stern galleries.
  22. Jim B
    Awesome score, Mike!
  23. Jim B
    The paint it really nice. Colors are great & no blemishes. I don't think I'd be going under any bridges any time soon, though. You might just rip your stacks off!

    Looks fantastic, Dan Very well done. The rigging on the Santa Maria & Pinta will be much simpler than on a 18th century frigate.
  25. Jim B
    Very well done. Looks like he's standing on the beach at ANZAC Cove on Gallipoli. Did you use oils or acrylics to paint him?
