  1. Like your work masking the deck. 👍 And your PE catapult and crane are "the cat's meow".
  2. Excellent work so far, Alan. Yeah, his beard and hair would give him a more menacing look with a bit of a shine to them.
  3. That's one beautiful build, Rob. The F1 racers are so aerodynamic. Well done. 👍
  4. That's better than being a Supervisor of Flying at an Air Force Base when all the aircraft participating in an airshow show up. Many do arrival shows, especially the military flight demo teams. That only happened once a year.
  5. Think you hit that nail on the head with the backdrop, Eric. Really like the wispy cirrus clouds. Keep it up!
  6. This one looks pretty busy. I'm on this one Alan.
  7. The wire wheels turned out nicely on the Rat Rod and the red paint turned out superb. These resin builds paint up well, as long as they're primed.
  8. Tornadoes in the Poconos would be a new one. 🙄 Did you look at any locomotive bells, Keith? They might have one close enough. Otherwise she's growing nicely.
  9. Take a look at some of the Native American steeds. The Lakota Sioux were known for some flashy mounts. Or the Napoleonic cavalry. Quite ornate.
  10. Vertigo can be very debilitating, especially for an aviator. Big cause for grounding. Thankfully its normally a temporary condition.
  11. Quite the formidable warrior, Alan. And you cranked it out fast. 👍
  12. 3D prints are the wave of the future. Looks very good.👍
  13. A few drops of India ink in iso alcohol makes a good wash for dirting up your models. It will collect in any panel lines. It's not as concentrated as the Tamiya washes.
  14. Nicely done, Alan. I've never attempted figures like these, out side of a few HO (1:87) scale figures in a passenger car.
  15. very nice recovery on the wingtips. Well done.
  16. The St Louis Railroad Prototype Modelers meet is in Collinsville again this year. 25 and 26 July. It's a big meeting; with 900 attendees last year,The 3D print stuff is mind boggling, many vendors. Lots of regular vendors, too. And models by the mile. Think about it.

      I am. It's 2 days from western NC, but we do some railfanning in southern Illinois.

      You bet. Hope this works out.

  17. Excellent writeup on building/growing your layout. 👍 Dead rail is the thing for the garden railway crowd. Our club garden setup is mostly that nowadays, with a few live steamers in the mix, too. Batteries need to shrink a lot for HO, but I can see the O scale guys doing it. Not sure about the tin-plate folks. I need to talk to my American Flyer guy.
  18. Really like this scene. And your shelf on the fascia. Very important for operations. Having to put car cards on the tracks while switching is very distracting. Looks very good.
