Adding detail to lamborghini
martinfan5 replied to mnwildpunk's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Correct, it took me a few trys, the first few times I had LP500 in the search text, and I got the same thing you did, only images of the exterior, leave out the LP500, for whatever reason, that is the issue with finding images of the engine -

More complicated, no, but it does take a few more clicks to do things on the new layout, the only thing that I dont like, is having to bring up a pop up menu to get to the links to share your photos, thats my one big and only complaint I have I will say the one thing I am liking is using the drag and drop method, I know its been around , but it wasnt tell I got my new laptop a few weeks ago that I was able to use it really -

I have no idea Harry, it was so simple to use, but I guess the new definition of progress is to make things harder to use ,or more complicated I have not notice what Bil is talking about, but I dont spend a lot time on PB, I upload, get the links, and I am done, I resize all my pics before I upload them -

Its not all that hard to figure out, its just a few more clicks to do things on the new version then the old one, I just switched over a few days ago to it, figured why wait tell the last minute. Do I like it , no, but after a few times using it, its not all that more difficult -

Really not a lot other then plug wires, but even with the real car, most of the engine is hidden, or hard to see https://www.google.com/search?q=lamborghini+lp+500+engine&hl=en&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=fp42UeqsDqT4yQHW8YGABw&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAQ&biw=1366&bih=592#hl=en&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=lamborghini+countach++engine&oq=lamborghini+countach++engine&gs_l=img.3..0j0i24l3.2915.3521.5.3941.5.5.0.0.0.0.101.487.4j1.5.0...0.0...1c.1.5.img.J01C-VgWsIA&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&bvm=bv.43287494,d.aWc&fp=f6064ea536b8cf28&biw=1366&bih=592 -

Aston Martin, sure, all Fords new desgins are looking like Aston Martin, makes sense to share desgins , saves money, but as for the Bugatti, not seeing anything close that makes think that -

Live on the scene
martinfan5 replied to martinfan5's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Starting working on extending the frame and interior, but for now, just pics of the frame after some cutting and after some gluing and some filling and some paint I did end up making the frame a little bit to long at the rear, I have since shorten it, no pics yet Moving on to the body, after some filling and sanding, I am ready for some primer so I can see where I am at I did take a pic of the right side, but it came out blurry, and I didnt check the pic tell after I had the body in primer and speaking of primer, I still have some work to do, which I knew I did, but to me, other then the gutter rails, does not look to bad at this point -

2013 NASCAR new rides
martinfan5 replied to jefropas's topic in WIP: Stock Cars (NASCAR, Super Stock, Late Model, etc.)
James, I cant believe its been 10 years now that Slixx stopped doing NASCAR decals, but what I have read around these interweb parts is that Slixx does the "going out of business " thing to drum up more sales, not saying that is true, just what people have speculated, its a BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH good way to get some fast bucks -

But you do get what you paid for, meaning full price, and even better if you can get them at less the MSRP -

If you want new tooled kits, that have good detail, maybe some engine detail, but most of the time are kerbside, then buy Japanese kits from Tamiya/Aoshima/Fujimi, and if you buy from the right places , the cost is about the same for any current kit being sold by AMT/Revell -

David, you are the second to mention the label tape, and I thought about your second tip, and I dont know why I didnt do it, but I should of, I might be able to go back and do cut and pull out the top part and get that area lined up, but as for everything, its all lined up
