Thing 1 and Thing 2 were characters in a book by Dr. Seuss.......

Another automobile drawing! I really wish that there was a drawing program that let you draw from scratch the way MS Paint does......... I'll maybe add a background to this.

Pets out of hounds is usually a great idea, even though they can be a bit stubborn....

I wonder what all would be needed to build a more detailed model of this kit....... The Y-block could come from the Revell '57 Ford, but what about a more detailed chassis? Maybe shorten the chassis from the same '57 Ford?

Sits for treats was pretty much the only trick my ol' dog Callie would do......

You mean...... There's other forums? Just kidding..... Really though, as good as this forum is, there's really no reason to be anywhere else. Instagram has a Bunch of modellers there, noone has mentioned it.....

Angry is something a true ninja master never let's himself get......

Guys, I guess she's eaten her mate! I don't see him anywhere........

What you might could try is to get a sheet of foil and mask with it.... What I generally do is cut the foil while it's still on the sheet with a straight edge and a fresh blade. When you lift the foil off of the sheet, you'll have a perfectly straight piece..... Then just place the foil along the window trim. You can get SOME bend with a strip of foil. The thinner the strip, the more you can curve it...... Then just paint your trim, and remove the foil! oh, welcome to the forum!

Coming along right nicely...... Nice color! I wonder if there's any way Round2 could "fix" this kit and it's fitment issues, kinda like Lindberg correcting the cowl on the '61 Impala?

Subject comparison between two radically different objects is called a juxtaposition, I believe.....

Played some Gran Turismo just now, which is always relaxing.......

I use the DupliColor 1K clear.... right from the can, though. It's kind of a bear to work with! Every time I've had to stick foil or tape to it, it wants to lift off the paint..... Could just be me, but it's happened several times. At over $20 a can, I could be getting two cans of Tamiya clear and get better results. I'm thinking about dumping some of the DC stuff, tho (not their primer, it's still a good product...) and just switching to hobby paints, myself!

That's a good pic...... If I see a Black Widow, I get rid of them! We have a bunch of kids and dogs here in the complex. Neither of those pay any attention to spiders and could get bitten....

I was hoping that you would chime in, Steven! The detail that goes into your builds looks so natural and in scale....... I was curious as to your view on the subject. You're right, too, in the fact that the better kit you start with, the better the end results are.

Yea, sorry about that, Carl man.... We'll get this going in the right direction now, though! Progress for now is primer on everything except the fenders and body. I need to do some putty on those still. I'll wait to spray any color coats until I can do them all the same day........

or Their status symbol! ALL dogs are good, man. They just have bad owners.........

Thank you, Sir! The red really is a nice color for that tone of interior color. I have built this little custom which I painted blue with the red for the inside. Turned out really nice..... The green I'm using here just wasn't vibing right.......

Guys, I ended up having to change the color of the interior...... The red didn't look as nice against this teal as I was hoping it would. So for today's progress, the dash is done and I've repainted the interior!

That's a right good size catfish! You gonna fillet 'em up?

Hey, fellas! I had a quick question...... I've discovered this magazine called 'Werke' which is, naturally, all about BMWs. I'm wanting to get a subscription, but they've already put out the first two and I don't want to miss out on those. Where online could I maybe order copies of this mag? It's a quarterly, and like I said, the first issues are out already. My computer doesn't work well with their site for some reason, or I would just order from them........ I hope you guys can help....

Never mind...........

I like your build style...... Very clean! I especially like your Thunderbird duo.......

Here's some more progress for you guys........ Made a sunken license plate area and I've attached the trunk lid. I'll do some putty work around the lid...... Also put some Tamiya dull red on the interior parts.

Which kit is that from? Someone on the board might have the grille from it.........
