Bluemiles22 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Posted August 1, 2012 Lol thanks man, this is definitely a phenomenal kit I loved it, this is my second one and I'm probably gonna go get another one soon.
Ramfins59 Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 Hey... great looking model Rich. I'm an ex-Long Islander myself... moved 5 years ago because it just got too darn expensive to live there. Have you joined the L.I.A.R.S. Club yet...???
model-collector Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 Simply beautiful, iam very happy to see it finished. Great job
Bluemiles22 Posted August 2, 2012 Author Posted August 2, 2012 Thanks for all the compliments guys! I havent joined LIARS yet but I found them on Facebook. Just a matter of contacting them I guess. Joining a club is definitely something I would be interested in. Did you join when you lived on LI?
fatkidd Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 I have looked at this several times since you posted it and I keep coming back to it. It is wonderfully done. I think that you did a very clean, tasteful take on this kit. Nicely done.
Ramfins59 Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Yes Rich, I originally joined the LIARS Club back in 1992 and am still a member even though I don't live there anymore. I still keep in touch with the guys and occasionally write for the Club's monthly newsletter. You can contact the LIARS Club's "unofficial official", Rich Argus by email and he will be more than happy to give you all the info that you need about the Club. His email address is: R.Argus@Juno.com The monthly Club meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month, from 6:30 to 9:00 PM, at the Henrietta Acampora Senior Center on Montauk Hwy. in Blue Point.(Next to King Kullen)
Bluemiles22 Posted August 5, 2012 Author Posted August 5, 2012 Thanks ramsfin. I'll definitely contact him about joining, I think I would really enjoy being part of a club. Again thanks for the compliments and also the info
Dyno Davo Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Nice build Rich, great colour choice and paint quality.
