  1. Hey, fellas! I've been working on this drawing in MS Paint. I'm not sure where to take it from here. I thought about maybe the negative space around him could be actual 'space', with planets and such. I'm not settled on the vertebrae, just trying to fill the area below his head...... Anyway, does anyone have any ideas/suggestions for this folk art of mine? LoL......
  2. Me and my friends at the time (late teens) would hang out at the auto detail shop where I worked....... I had my fox-chassis Mustang at the time, which of course I kept spotless! Working at a car detail shop, you get to drive all kinds of cars. Me at 18 driving a then new C5 that we kept clean for a lawyer, another time I got the chance to motor a C2 Corvette (pale yellow, 327 coupe) across town. Lots of fun driving the wide variety of vehicles!
  3. A little more done to the interior...........
  4. Nerve made of steel is needed running 200 mph on the return road of Circuit de la Sarthe.....
  5. The dog now has three heads, to chew three times as many parts!
  6. I don't see why they couldn't do some late-model muscle cars..... I bet they would do a bang-up job with them! I really would like one of the Mustang GT4s, just haven't picked one up yet.....
  7. Thank you, Carl man! I'm thinking blue for the interior with the white inserts...... I should make some door panels, too....
  8. Rarely will you enjoy that without either Chips Ahoy or Oreos, though, as those go the best with milk....
  9. It's waaaaaay too windy to paint anything today..... I was wanting to work on the interior some. Instead, I made some seat inserts from styrofoam plate material.....
  10. That's a really nice picture.......
  11. Views for eternity but never any replies......
  12. Or PVA (school glue) for everything including engine halves....
  13. Bullwinkle was pretty cool, with the Mr. Know it all character...... I always liked better the 'Fractured Fairy Tales'.
  14. Yea, they squat to tinkle..........
  15. Norf Carolina.......... Home of hunting bucks and jacked-up trucks...... LOL!
  16. Guys, I believe the chassis is pretty much done...........
  17. I bet she would enjoy having a sweater, though......
  18. Here's the stance mocked up!
  19. Just a little more progress, guys....... I primed the chassis, painted the silver, then masked off for the frame.......
  20. You know, robots can select those images with traffic lights........ Ever notice when a pic online is loading, there will be a caption, "image may contain....." There's even an app that you can take a pic of a flower, and the app tells you what it is, even what's wrong with it........
  21. The Revell 2009 Challenger has a super nice modern Hemi in it.......... edit..... Sorry, man! I just looked at the prices of the Revell kits. Maybe the AMT 2014 Charger?
  22. Hey, fellas! Just wanted to show how I went about lowering the front....... I just drilled the spindle higher than the stock axle hole, and am using tooth picks (whatever works, right? ) to mount the wheels... Here's how it sits in the front.... Now I need to decide exactly what stance I want to have, though I'm thinking a little nose-down......
  23. What I might would do then, is to 'sand' what's on the parts with Comet and a tooth brush until it all looks dull, then give it another coat or two of primer..... The scrubbing will give what is on there some 'tooth', so your next coats won't pull away from the edges so bad......
  24. You may need to prime your parts first, Milo man..... You'll get better coverage that way.
  25. These are all really super good builds! I always enjoy the treat of seeing your work.......... The Packard has me wanting to build a classic now!
