mod3l Lover Posted October 6, 2017 Posted October 6, 2017 You sure come up with some cool ideas on how to do things!!! RESPECT!!! David S.
hobbybobby Posted October 8, 2017 Author Posted October 8, 2017 Thank you very much! Here is another part of the Chuck Wagon kit... ... mounted... ... and a bit of color... I did not like the original tank, the one from the Beer Wagon kit fits much better... http://www.showrods.com/showrod_pages/beer_wagon.html ... and mounted...
hobbybobby Posted October 9, 2017 Author Posted October 9, 2017 First, i tried to connect this holder with a superglue, but, it always broke down again... Then I have it's stuck with a two-part adhesive, after two days in this position: ... and with a little paint over it...
Davewilly Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Some great looking details! Its looking really good!
hobbybobby Posted October 11, 2017 Author Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) Thank you, Dave! Now, such a build retreat to the length, and never seem to be ready... ... but, where is the fun factor? Sometimes, much more fun are the heavy paths and the journey is the destination... Green = Leek, comes from a PLAYMOBIL®- set Rosy = Flower, comes from another PLAYMOBIL®- set Yellow = Hat, comes from a Kinder Egg- Gimmick figure White = a piece of polystyrene I let the pictures speak... Well, yes, the flower pot, I could quickly make it on the lathe... ... but, where is the fun factor? Here's a possibility if you have no lathe on Hand... The hat loses his sun protection... This is an inner rim... I need only this ring... ... and it fits... ... composition... ... a little Color... ... and at its final place... Hope, you like it. Edited October 11, 2017 by hobbybobby
alan barton Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 (edited) Congratulations on your fantastic progress so far, Boban. I am really enjoying your creative use of such a wide variety of materials to produce a very unique model. I like the way you think!And like many others, making those hinges out of crimped earing clamps just blows me away! CheersAlan Edited October 12, 2017 by alan barton
Foxer Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 I somehow got behind looking at this and I'm blown away! You use of, what we once called "Mom's Sewing Basket" 50 years ago, is imaginative and looks spectacular!
gotnitro? Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Very inspiring work using everyday treasuresthen turning them into parts ! Very cool imagineering
peekay Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Boban, I've never been into show rods but I LOVE what you do with them.
larman Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Great work, I love to look at posts like this, so much clever thought and artistic execution! This is what modeling is all about!
hobbybobby Posted October 16, 2017 Author Posted October 16, 2017 Thank you all for the kind words, I appreciate that very much! As a modeler, you must always keep your eyes open for such things. If we look a second time, these turn out to be true treasures... The only disturbing thing is, the time it is applied to search, Things that you know exactly how they should look, and that they are also available somewhere, but just then, they are nowhere to be found... Just like these three things for the planned dio... ... it has taken an eternity to find this, and again as long to keep it in the hands... There is still much to do...
hobbybobby Posted November 7, 2017 Author Posted November 7, 2017 Thank you very much! This build is already finished... I will post soon the pictures in the finished section. I'm also on building a Dio, but, well, hmm, yes, that might take some more time...
hobbybobby Posted November 13, 2017 Author Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) The pics are now in the finished section... Edited November 13, 2017 by hobbybobby

Even if Round2 does reissue this kit, it would be a major disappointment compared to what you've created! And probably no where near as fun to build as yours appears to be. Amazing, just amazing! Thanks for sharing.
