Beautiful ! Love how you "play" with paint

Nice start ! Love the old Bugs

Nice, Chuck. This will be the 1st Hudson I'm interested in ! Please carry on

Nice work, Jim ! This one looks familiar, lol ! Love the idea of a 6-pack hemi ! Very cool cruiser !

Thanx for the replies, my styrene brothers ! Hope to be back in the fold real soon ! Hope y'all had a great Memorial Day Weekend ! Peace !

WOW ! 'Nuf said !?

Hey fellas, Bartster's back ! Not quite in action yet, but very soon. About 3 weeks from now l'm moving to a new address. Lots of financial hiccups led me to come back to my native Missouri. I brought all my modeling gear with me, but still packed up at this point. Had to let my phone go for a few months, so l've been out of touch with most of you. I believe l still owe a few parts & such from deals made in the past ? I will get back with each of you if/when possible. Please don't take my absence as a lack of interest or a show of bad faith !? This mess has been beyond my control, please accept my sincere apologies, one & all ! A special shout out to Crazy Jim Stepanek ! Happy Memorial Day, brother !! I will get with you soon. Sean, sorry l had to put things on hold !

LOVE it !

Fantastic ! I love everything about it. Exquisite detail at every point of the truck. I have just finished gathering everything for a similar build. I may go with a "floating" '57 grille. Your truck is very inspiring ! Thanx. Bart

Looks like fun!

Nice looking racer, Scott. I got quite a few of these myself. Best kit headers around & yes, a face only a mother could love, lol ? Great job ! Bart

Very nice effort. Your patience shows in this hard to produce loongroof. A nice addition to anyone's shelf ! Bart

Absolutely stunning, Rich ! This blue suits this beauty perfectly. Love the stance & all the detail work that went into the interior. Kudos ! Still trying to send pics, lol. Bart

Hey Bill, I have both those engines & the '05 Chrysler 300. The Challenger & 300 engines are the same size, so l assumed the Magnum engine is overscaled. Again, just an assumption, but the Magnum engine looks overscaled mocked up in every 1:25 body l've tried it in. Bart

Very Sweet ! I've wanted to do one of these for years. Love it ! Bart

I think you're an excellent sculptor. Perhaps you could raise the wheel wells a couple mm ? I think the tires & wheels are fine but the ride height is maybe a bit high ? Fantastic work any way you look at it ! Bart

The bruises on my right arm are permanent ! They just change locations occasionally.

That's pretty close to my vision of this beauty as well ! I say go with the cammer. Been following your '50 truck, if this looks anything like it, you got another winner ! Bart

I like the looks so far. I have this kit & a set of those same wheels. Never thought to put them together ! Hmmmm.......l sure hope that V-8 in the background is going in this baby !? Bart

Looking wild, David !

That looks comfy & cozy. Great for A&W malteds & necking ! Awesome progress. Bart

That '58 is ROCKIN' ! I do nelieve l have a new favorite !

Thanks, Draggon. I'll check that out.

Thank you. I also googled it, but all the websites for about 2 hours were either foreign or too big for my phone. Just wondering what brand & type paints folks were getting the best results out of ? Thanks again, Bart

I got my 1st airbrush a while back (thanks Crazyjim !) & recently got a new compressor & accessories to go with it. I'll get it all figured out in due time. The problem is, the wife says l need to make it pay for itself (she's so wise !). The quickest, easiest way l can think of is to design & paint T-shirts. So do any of you airbrushers do this on the side ? What are the best fabric paints to use. I'm also thinking l could use these paints to make detailed fabric designs for model car interors such as Mexican style blankets for Rat Rods, etc. Any help/guidance will be appreciated ! Thanks, Bart
