Iron Mike encouraged me to do so. "Just to see what they do." It's an old story, but I remember the occasion fondly. :lol:

True, but there are also 3D printed model kits. A 3D print genius I know made me one. Its hard to get away from that awful layering effect, and this resin is not very wet-sanding stick friendly.

Here are this mornings castings. (No school on President's day) 3X USS Ronquil/Tigerfish. 3X Columbian smuggling subs. 6X USCG Patrol/Surveillance Submarines. 2X USS Clamagore. Back to top) HMS Speedy, USN LCVP, Launch and life rafts. Higgins LCPL-2 RN ASW Lynx helicopter and UDT LCPL. 2X...

Case in point; Here are this mornings castings. (No school on President's day) 3X USS Ronquil/Tigerfish. 3X Columbian smuggling subs. 6X USCG Patrol/Surveillance Submarines. 2X USS Clamagore. Back to top) HMS Speedy, USN LCVP, Launch and life rafts. Higgins LCPL-2 RN ASW Lynx helicopter...

Would warming up your acrylic paints help?

When I did the Samurai Bathtub diorama, I used small bits of clear resin to fashion bow waves and run-off, but it looked kinda silly. That was OK, because the Egg-kagi was supposed to look silly in a wooden tub.

Kriegsfischkutter! Cool!!

It's a little bit of fun to flip an Atlanta resident the Bird, just to see how far he can chase you before his Dodge Omni blows a head gasket!

Were going to Madision on 7 March. In Wisconasin there is an IPMS Ladies Sewing Circle! Crochet and knitting are welcome.

Are the old T-55's Category B or C units? These seem a bit antique as the tip of the vaunted Sov armored spearhead we were told to fear for so many years.

A Don Quixote and Sancho figures for the windmill, perhaps?

ebay seller scalemodels_4u2 is the store account. Radek is the first name in the comm's. Is this helpful?

A good cleanin' with Isopropyl alcohol, and a coat of aged mold release, an' the Curse be lifted, me Buckos! Casting began at 0438 this mornin' and continues every couple o' bells with satisfyin' result. USS Ronquil has small differ'nce from USS Clamagore. Winders in the sail and lack of sonar...

Aye. Mates, 'tis with shame I confess me LPP castin' sins. Imprecise mixin' be the flaw. Too much B for the A part. Dispensin' were sloppy at beyest. Too much blood in me alcohol stream. Aye. 'Tis a Curse!

I don't 3D print. I don't hate such things, but the quality is so hit or miss as far as surface textures go, I wish to offer my customers the best possible quality model at a reasonable price. That, and once the molds are ready, LPP casting takes less time and has fewer toxic chemical hazards...

Smoke from the chimneys belays a snug, warm vibe, in the frosty winter setting. Welcome!

The first go at bow waves. Nah. The bow wave should go more out than up for a speedy transit. Crockett's Scarab is only a 36-footer, but you get the idea, yes?

(in Joshamee Gibbs voice) 'Tis the CURSE! Aye, boys, Furst castin' o'me USS Tigerfish/Ronquil-WPSS-Columbian smuggler sub mold. The curse o' the Gray Ghostof the Florida Coast, I teyell ye. Coom no closer, lest ye be accursed as weyel. Castin's be soft, slippery, as blubber oil, they be...

Yeah it didn't go so well.

No additional fees or tariffs were imposed. The whole purchase was close to $100.00. An extravagant model purchase for a part-time special needs school teacher. I did have to meet the Postmistress outside to sign for them. The neighbor's dogs had her cornered in her pickup. :salute::lol:
