Sixties television shows could be wholesome AND funny..........

Hey, what's up man! Welcome back............ Your non-auto model thread is still active in off-topic.

There's one WIP that I find quite excellent (and if I know the builder, it will always be a WIP....LoL! ) and that's Mr. Engwer's molded-in-blue Monogram '53 Chevy that's He's thrown a bunch of customizing at......... I saw it in the WIP forum's mock-up topic, I believe. Maybe He'll post a pic for us?

Bearded rainbows only exist in songs by the best blues-rock band of the '60s, Cream...........

and It's probably a Darn Good car, too......... I look at the 3s and 6s when perusing ads online. If I was searching for a car, that would be what I would get! With a manual, of course.......

The Cyber Truck kinda scares me........... Hope I never see one in person! LoL!

Slapper bars are unnecessary on a MoPar as they have a pinion snubber............

Hehehe............ Here's a couple of 'real' drawings that I've been working on! The BMW is supposed to be like a black n white pic with just the M colors showing........ Not sure I really pulled it off.... This ol pickup is just in pencil......... I'm getting to where I need glasses to do reading and drawing. Kinda why I like drawing in MS Paint, the infinite do-overs you hinted at......

Those are pretty creative! I still work on these as the mood strikes....... I have several I goof around on when I have time. Here's one I did some time back! Some would wonder where the inspiration for some of these came from! I wish I could find a decent program that you can draw from scratch with...... MS Paint is very limited by what you can do.

Actually yesterday, but I went and got a library card for the local library. First book checked out was Lord of the Flies.......... It felt pretty good just to get out of my apartment, too......

Bimmer-dubs and art kinda go hand in hand, starting with the Warhol cars..........

Time spent on the forums can be both fun AND educational!

"In through the out door" sounds less like an album name, and more like a drawing by MC Escher..........

It's basically things like cleanliness of paint and assembly, attention to the basics like mold line removal, things such as that....... We have a WIP section a little higher up on the forum list..... You're absolutely welcome to post your students' works! You'll get tons of feedback and tips in pretty much real time, which could be valuable when it comes to the problem-solving aspect of building........... Anyways, again welcome!

Hello, Monica! I hope that I'm being of some help here.... Here is a link to a page on the IPMS site. You'll have to scroll down about 1/4 of the page to a heading called "The Modeling Basics". There is listed the things that judges take into consideration when choosing their favorites........ https://ipmsusa.org/about/national-contest-committee/ipmsusa-modelers-guide-ipms-contests/ipmsusa-modelers-guide-ipms-contests As far as a printed out check list, hopefully someone (maybe a judge, even) can help you with that..... Thanks for joining!

One would think that would be easily done, but such is not the case........

Anything except a baker's dozen!

"Party on, Garth....!"

Steve, that interior looks great! My old man also has a survivor car with it's original interior........ I hope it's okay to show you here! It's a '73 Charger with an appearance package called the Aztec. I believe the package was just the bronze exterior paint, and the funky pattern on the seats.........

Orson Welles broadcasting War of the Worlds had everyone in a panic......

Congratulations!

Music that I listened to as a teen I still enjoy, I just don't Crank it like I did then..........

Day after day, I will work and I will play, but the day after today, I will stop and I will start........

'Shine' is usually short for moonshine, which could be a double entendre right now i guess..........

Now Bill is singing a song by 'Queens of the Stone Age'!
