Weather permitting, we will be driving to see Grand and Great grand kids. Should a cold blue williwaw arrive, count me in.

There's this Nut, see. He thinks the p/e is too thick to make the ladder that runs up USS Clamagore's sail. So he gets this idea. He tapes short bits of black Invisible Thread to a strip of .040 plastic, and trims it close, see?! Then this Nut successfully sticks the tiny black bits to the...

Absolutely outstanding! I notice many European modelers weather their airplanes in such a way they look like they flew through a mix of oil and flour. Your relatively clean P-47 is refreshing!

Pricing this kit caused me some concern. I want to bring affordable, unopposed, model kits to the market place, but I don't feel like giving them away is wise either. Generally TLAR 1/700 vessels start at $10.00 each and go up from there, depending on complexity. The rule for 1/350 vessels...

I notice these are all just a bit different as far as spoke layout. I admire your tenacity, Paddy.

Kit #1125 Box artwork. I chose the first, less "traffic-jammy" looking picture. What this picture does not show is that the Larson and Caravelle 232 (The speedboats) are doubled up. 16 1/350 scale boat models in all! 7 boats are brand new releases. Now I can make some headway on the Narco...

Some pretty serious Signal Corp gear there! Which kit? Where didja get the M2? Whose figures? Give, Terry! (I know you hate emojis)

That must have been quite an event down Louisiana way! Pfoof! The Chief is just south of Fort Worth. The Buc-ee's there was deserted!

That's a Big-O tree limb, Glen. Ima thinkin' yer shed is a total loss.

All the palms, The Tin Goose taxiing out of the Atoll and the S-42, with her nose to the wind, riding at anchor. I added a boarding ladder to RH side of the Tri-Motor, but you cain't see it. Tamiya smoke for the winders was easy over the super-sparkly silver! I haven't chosen a lighthouse...

A waterline Sikorski S-42 flying boat and ol' Ford Tin Goose on floats, with Jimmy Buffett's Albatross! Tamiya LP-48 Sparkling Silver over Future shows the irritating texture of my old Shapeways 3d printed aircraft. It sure is sparkly!! These are for my own amusement. Not much Shapeways ever...

Is it not South for you?

Howdy!

Thursday at school our principal, Mrs. Mendoza showed up in our room with a hotdog on her head and conducted an unprovoked "Snowball" fight. The "Snowballs" were soft, multi-colored, plush balls that she assaulted our class with, and was properly pummeled in return. This occurred in every...

One mustn't let all those acrylic paints freeze. Bloody awful, that.

I like how the M5 is facing the Jagdtiger like "I've got him just where I want him!"

The islands are not quite big enough for a decent base. I considered making the beach front docks at Mios Woendi, but PT boat sales don't justify it.

On the list of things to finish, is the Kit 519 base. Islands, Boats and Tiki Hut. The dock on Hideaway Key was vexing me, so I finally got round to knocking it out. Flip the dock over and paint silver, then black on the undersides and a coat of Tamiya Clear blue to give some water effect...

The overall finish looks very good!:good:

Are ya gonna put some dots of future on the instrument faces?
