  1. Tradition is wrong in this case. The man's name is pronounced "willis." As in "Whatchoo talkin' bout, Willis?"
  2. I have 2 Pocher Rolls in the works... all the wheels are done for both cars. So that's not what's holding them up. Lack of time, mostly, is what the real problem has been. I don't mind doing the wire wheels, but it's just so tedious.
  3. L&GMB... that's good stuff! BTW... you're probably better off never having "run into" Jenna Jameson. The L&GMB would no doubt have frowned on that...
  4. What's going on there on the back end? It looks like there's some sort of translucent blue film over the taillights and center chrome panel.
  5. Danica and Danno, sittin' in a tree... K-I-S-S-I-N-G...
  6. That sums up all that is wrong with NASCAR.
  7. So Skip... when do we see a new WIP with that Mercedes of yours?
  8. Ok, possibly a stupid question from a guy who doesn't know much about today's NASCAR... but aren't all the COT bodies the same? I mean, what is it you're trying to accomplish with all the putty? Is there a difference between Danica's car and all the others?
  9. The store where you shop lets you open the box and "touch and feel?"
  10. You have another option. The internet has dozens and dozens of places that sell models, the selection is far better than even the most well-stocked hobby shop could ever possibly have, they never close, and they deliver to your door. Why would anyone limit themselves to whatever the local shops decide to carry?
  11. From the video: "Why is the exhaust coming out the front?" "Because there's nowhere else to put it." Huh??? How did everyone else who ran Gremlins find somewhere else to put it? Sounds to me like nothing more than a cheap attention-getting gimmick.
  12. That's a nice load of new age mysticism... but I still don't see how reference material and experience can ever be seen as a disadvantage.
  13. Reference material and experience are disadvantages?
  14. What does what you just posted have to do with the topic?
  15. The problem with MV lenses is they are smooth. Headlights have that engraved pattern of lines. MV lenses don't look very realistic as headlight lenses, IMO.
  16. I think it deserves some sort of enclosed plex display case. Check online, they're available in a lot of sizes.
  17. Dumb to you... not so dumb to others. It's all nothing more than personal taste. I'm sure there are people out there who think that what you like is dumb. So it goes. We all have opinions, there's no right or wrong... just personal preferences. Exactly. Well said (and sarcasm noted!)
  18. That looks great! And the years of dust and crud actually add to the model, gives it a very realistic sort of "used" look. And the tonneau cover looks very realistic. I think you did a great job with it.
  19. There is no "answer" to this question, there's no "explanation" why some people like rat rods... just as there's no "explanation" as to why other guys like street rods... or customs... or lead sleds or lowriders or donks or those wacky Japanese bozozukos or whatever the heck they're called or whatever. You like what you like, no explanation is needed. It's like saying, "Ok, I like chocolate ice cream, can anyone explain how someone could possibly like vanilla ice cream?"
  20. Like Casey said. We already have areas for that. Resin & Aftermarket We also have a section to post website links in general. Links, Advertisers and Websites.
  21. The easiest way to do it is just foil the back of the lenses.
  22. If your settings were blank, that means you didn't have any option selected. No wonder you weren't getting any emails!
  23. Are you sure you have your preferences set correctly? You can select how (or if) you are notified. Are you now using a different email address than the one you have listed in your preferences?
  24. That list had nothing to do with sales figures. They were talking about design, not sales.
