Well, I've had Joe's book for a while now. I did finally settle on a paint scheme for the father figure. Wish me luck!

I enjoyed watching your build and I learned a lot about Bugatti racing machines along the way! If a Chuck Sterns award could be shipped to UK, you would certainly be the winner! A vintage model, meticulously completed. Bravo!

Lots of nice pictures! Thanks for posting! Johnny Quest robot spy!? Cool! I wonder where the windows went on the Razor Crest build?

https://www.halberdmodel.co/products/piper-enforcer-model-1971-conversion-set-for-eduard-kit-p-51d-1-48-scale Resin conversion made in Ukraine. Neet-o! I wish for a 1/72 version, myself.

Nice save! I can easily see how much more accurate the 1/72 SBS DH.88 Comet is than the 1957 Airfix tooling. I suspect a new tool 1/72 Comet is on the way from jolly old England. Time will tell.

"Marlin-on-a-steek" no longer! The TLAR 1/700 kit includes the full hull version of the P5M-1 Marlin as well. Carl's decals are exceptional! Both 1/350 and 1/700 scale Back Aft decals will be available on tlarmodels.com pretty soon!

From the fishing boats alongside, evening chow might very well be fresh lobster and mutton snapper. They don't always eat chicken. I really am putting this together! No more fooling around! (Well, maybe a little bit.) Fitting the superstructure to the hull assembly requires some...

Those are great pictures! Where did the Piper Enforcer come from? What scale was it? Greg's GT-40 build is very realistic. I wonder why it wasn't awarded. The flaming Me-109E is an eye-catcher! Thanks for posting some highlights!

Right?! Thanks very much guys! :notworthy The Bushmaster 25mm comes from Northrup Grumman Medium Caliber Systems and shares only a few features in common with earlier cannons. Such as "Bang-bang-bang! lots of pointy hard things fly really fast out of the other end". :lol:

With the use of Back Aft Models decals and the TLAR Models 1/700 Martin P5M-1 waterline Marlin, the tiniest installment of honoring LT David Ellis Gay's US Navy service is complete. The littlest "Sunday Flyer".

Foredeck and Mk.38 Gun mount test fit. I appreciate the kudos! Eyesight can be magnified. I do have good, steady hands and that is key.

Orkin? I missed something.

Eric's Sherman is nice, but The Bearhound is just cool! One of the best, most imaginative models to ever grace our 'site! He took "In Another World" to a whole new level! I never did get to do Werner Voss' Focke-Wulf TL Flitzer. Excellent overview! Thanks for posting some pictures!

Britt's Model Miscreants afoot again! ZORN!! How many entrants and entries? Did anyone enter? Didja win? Didja huh?! Didja?!! It looks like a big show for a local one. Awesome venue!!

Octagonal gun platform for the Mk.38. I cut some p/e life rings for the gunner's shoulder supports. Nobody else should EVER do this. Round gun platform for the 3" .50 caliber cannon. Gray finish! Between how much I like the HH-52A and the big gun, I almost want to build the early version...

The dive bar just got faincy.

"You may fire when ready, Mr. Gridley." Git-r-done!!

Damn the Martinis! Full speed ahead, Mr. Gridley! I just shot 2 turkey buzzards out of the old, dead tree with my finger! Mk.38 25mm and Mk.75 3" .50 cal. castings. 1/350 Scale turned brass barrels from Poland, installed. These are tedious to install, but produce fine results. I almost...

I don't either. Francisco is a talented artist as well as a modeler. He might be crossed with an architect too! It would take gallons of RTV and liquid polyurethane plastic to do what I would want to do. The pressure vessel would have to be at least 24 inches in diameter. Pfoof! Still...

I enjoy your big scale car builds, no end! I would not attempt such a model myself, but I find inspiration in watching these vintage miniatures become almost real. Bravo!
