Duke: Those have all turned out fantastic. Too bad you couldn't come up with all the German boot camp type staff and a bunch of raw recruits to set all of those busses. Its too bad you can't do them but I think they are still great. That tour bus is also pretty neat as well so I'd say you...

Those pictures are amazing. To think, some GI took those pix as a lasting memory of his (or her) time "over there"and then everything went missing. They may not be of Patton or Montgomery, but those pix are significantin someones view, even though we may never know who the GI is oe was. Dave

Bob and Susan: Congrats on making it through 49 years. My wife and I just finished our 36th on Nov. 17th and we are just happy as anything to stillenjoy each others company. I wish you both all the best and hope you continue on for another 49. Dave

Mark, thats a shame what happened to that bus. I hope you can resurect it and get it looking right. Everything else looks good. I know its late, but, I hope you had a good New Years eve and didn't party too hardy, LOLOLOLOLOL!! We stayed up long enough to see the ball drop at midnight, and...

Duke, that is all looking fantastic. What color is that car going to be? Is it a staff car, or just a regular civie type? I like how they all turned out. Can't wait to see the Mack and FT-17 combo. That is something I was looking at doing if I could come up with the $$$ to get them. All...

Christmas greetings... I would like to take a short moment to wish everyone here at Modelers Alliance a Merry and blessed Christmas. I also hope that Santa gave all of you what modeling goodies you wanted. Dave

Mark, I'm looking forward to more updates on the FT-17. Also congrats on making M.O.M. for November. Way to go my friend. Dave

Mark, its a shame you had a break in the frame of your Mack, but I see you got it repaired. I'm sure the weight of the FT-17 won't do anything to it. Hope it all works out. I also had an issue with the group site on Thursday evening. Dave

Mark, that Mack truck is looking real nice and the FT 17 is starting out good. Is that going to be an American transport vehicle and tank? If so, that sounds like a cool idea and I will be watching it seriously. Gonna be a good Idea. Dave

Nice looking Dicker Max ya got there Duke. The modulation would have been nice, but, when you have problems in assembly, you do what you canto get the job done. Dave

Michael- How many fittings did you buy? And more important, where did you fit the cork on the bottom of the fittings. Did you glue them to the inside diamter of the fitting, or did you glue it to the bottom? I saw the article in Fine Scale Modeler (I think I may have lost it as well, DUH!!!)...

Viper, you did a fantastic job on that '70 Super Bee. I like everything you did with that kit. Dave

I'm sorry to hear that duke, but I still think that needs to be done, by somebody. I think that most of the figures could be just modified from stock, unpainted Preiser figures, and the D.I. could be a stock German figure. I know my skills, and my eyes bare not up to that much scratch work...

Duke: Those are both going to be some interesting busses. I still think you need to do up a bus brining raw recruits to their basic training base and having a senior Feldwebell waiting for them to get off the bus for the in-glorious start of Boot Camp. I'm sure that you could do justice to...

Mike, I just discovered your build on the Niagara falls AFB F-4s. I grew up in Lancaster and Alden, and remember when they flew F-101s out of that station. It was sad indeed when they flew the last 130 mission last week, but I'm sure a new legacy will be born. Do you still live in the area...

32 5 Window Coupe The Beginnings of Construction Nice job so far on that '32. Gives me something to shoot for when I get to building mine (in a few years LOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!). Dave

As always Duke, you have done a fabulous job on all that WWII armor. I never really considered doing anything from the wrong side of the Curtain, so Russian subjects were always out of the question for my, not to say that I don't think that yours aren't any good. Quite the opposite,dude, they...

Duke: I've seen silly putty used as a mask in several car modeling magazines, so that ia not a problem. What I'm curious about is the splotches. Are they freehand by brush, or did you use a paper mask to do them with an airbrush or spray can? I want to try that on a couple pieces of German...

Duke, those are all looking great. I was a bit concerned when I saw the first pix of the Stug and PzIV because they all looked so shiny and new. Then I went farther along and saw that you did indeed slather on some flat clear to tone down the shine. Silly me for not thinking right away, but...
