  1. Well everytime ole Bennie opens that jug he's carrying, the smell will knock you over. Don't know what he's got in there but it is darn potent even at 20 paces. And Uncle Howie makes me real nervous with that shotgun he keeps twirling like a baton.
  2. Thanks Lou. If you haven't guessed, they are my other hobby. Woodcarving Caricatures
  3. Then this family of Ozark Mountain Hillbillie Moonshiners drops in from time to time with their jug of white lightning (Lead based). You do NOT want to drink that stuff unless you want to go blind. My shipment is somewhere in the Midwest near Indianapolis - how it got out there from New Jersey is anyone's guess.
  4. These two bums, Pete and his brother RePete, keep wandering over from the woodcarver's shop next door to see if my shipment has arrived. Guess they expect a bottle of hootch to jump out at them.
  5. You can also do that to a painted surface to give it a high gloss finish, like on model cars.
  6. Beautiful Yves ! But I have a question. How much of this exquisite detail will be visible when the model is complete? Is one side going to be clear plastic. Would be a shame to hide all of this interior detail.
  7. So far so good, Lou! Looks nice.
  8. Nice ! I will pull up a stool and watch
  9. I hope to receive the remainder of my supplies by the end of this week so I can finish the display and post the results. Stay tuned. In the meantime enjoy some popcorn from Mark's popcorn maker
  10. Dioramas are not that hard to do. Today in the digital age, there are dozens of How To videos on YouTube that will show you the basics. And a lot of the raw materials you need to build one are in your backyard.
  11. Not necessarily true, Lou . I have the same problem translating what appears in my head into what sits on the work table in front of me, especially when it comes to doing dioramas. Eventually I get there but oh the journey can be rough at times.
  12. Yes, it does. I bookmarked this for later reference. Thanks
  13. Yeah and I still get glue smeared clear plastic windows .....
  14. Tractor came out nice, like the color. Those tracks look cool too. When I get finished doodling I will have to revisit my model and see about fixing the tracks. And give it a bath
  15. The governor of NY state issued an Executive order mandating that we wear a face covering when I leave my house, so I ordered this to wear
  16. Yea, that box does look familiar now that you posted it. Don't really want to buy another kit just to steal the sprockets, especially not the Walker - not my cup of tea - I have a lot of left over sprockets from other tank kits, even the Sherman has an extra set, any chance any of them will fit?
  17. How do you fix it ? Or where can I get new treads. Wish Tamiya would offer theirs as an accessory kit Would love to look at your build log!
