Dirkpitt289 Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 I'm getting a little man wood over these snakes. So tempted to break mine out.... Must ..... Resist.... temptation....
Dr. Cranky Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Don't resist, Dirk. You are going to have a blast working on these. They go together real nice, and they look pretty cool. My only warning is that you might not be able to just build one!

Dr. Cranky Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 I just ordered a few more from the MODEL ROUND UP along with a couple of those Falcons I've been wanting to build. The styrene fun must continue!
Rmodeler Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Of course I can tell Dr., that you feel good tunes are an essential part of good modeling. I saw your blue Cobra video (nice! shiny!) .. enjoyed it, but also enjoyed your soundtrack just as much. Now who is it that is doing that cover of "Been a Long Time?" or is it called "Rock and Roll" as on the first Led Zeppelin album?
Dr. Cranky Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Thanks, Roger. The band is called SUGARPIE AND THE CANDYMAN and it's a swing version of "ROCKNROLL/HEART BREAKER". Delighted you enjoyed it. Actually, this song could just as easily been done by the Squirrel Nut Zippers!
John Teresi Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Dr. ......looks AWESOME...... it just goes to show........that, the good ol` Dr. can build anything........Great job......love that color combo too!
Dr. Cranky Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Thanks, John, well, I don't know how much longer the shiny is going to be calling out to me but for now it's probably going to be over a few builds, then it's back to the dark side! LOL!
Rmodeler Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) Aha! Thank you doctor. I have not only a penchant for cover songs, I even have a S.N.Z. CD somewhere here. Zany. ...minutes pass... Hahahahaa .. I LOVE "I Get Around", "Mercy" hell I love them all. btw Have you heard of Don Tiki? Not similar but you make appreciate... Now, back to our program: Edited February 29, 2012 by Rmodeler
Kustom Rodder Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Doc a stoplight red cobra with a subtle gold stripe dressed with a set of crager ss 5 spokes would be dripping with carisma. How about a protouring snake just a thought.
Dr. Cranky Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Mike, that's in line with what might happen with the next one when the new kits I ordered arrive.
Kustom Rodder Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Doc hang out on the shiny side for a while your doing some fantastic work let those rusty ideas pile up for a while.
Dr. Cranky Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Doc hang out on the shiny side for a while your doing some fantastic work let those rusty ideas pile up for a while. LOL, so far I'm enjoying it, but then the tension gets to my nerves, Mike, which is why I ended switching over to the rusty stuff. But don't worry, I've got plenty of shiny lined up to last me for a good long time.
Dr. Cranky Posted March 1, 2012 Author Posted March 1, 2012 Speaking of more gloss for your eyes, I am working on finishing a couple of other treats here in the coming days. I will post them in a new thread. Stay tuned in and thanks for all the comments and suggestions, and inspiration. Cheers, DC
geemoney Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 ive got the hankerin for a dragonsnake build as well, when i was a kid my dad had a VERY wealthy friend who bought a new d-snake in cali, then purchased a 64 el-co, and a trailer and drove the rig back home to buffalo. those were the days!
Dr. Cranky Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 It sounds like you have a great build idea right there, Mike. Do it. It's only styrene.
