  1. Think out of the box here: two front legs, and a wagon holding his arse up. So he's under twin power. And a taildragger as well, so you need an endorsement on your Certificate
  2. That was to be my next question... just two power units.. So, a twin engine airplane, helicopter, boat, a twin engine AFV, a twin motor rocket, twin engine construction equipment, busses, race and drag cars, heck, even a Tyrannosaur, (two legged locomotion), or a two legged horse..... named cigarette.
  3. That’s from LSM. Christmas Grand Prize the 2nd.
  4. Hmmm. A few have dropped off while a few others joined. I’ve heard comments that were not has happening as some, and too laid back…. LOL This is a place for adults to discuss, chat, and build.
  5. I's starting to get a complex here,... looking over my shoulder and all. "Clunk is removed". Like from this Earth? If so, I hate to break it to ya, but your guy, uhhhh,.. missed.
  6. Awesome! I went the other way, with individual Airscale dials. How crazy am I?
  7. Fixed! The dang manual shows it outside. LOL
  8. One of my favorite builds ever. I completed this just in time for New Year’s Eve, and it was simply enjoyable. I was prouder of my Helldiver, simply for the challenges overcome, but this turned out awesome! “Ravin’ Rachael, of the 312th Bomb Group, 389th Squadron, Oct 1944 at Gusap, Papua New Guinea. 1/32 HKM A-20G with HGW seat belts, HAD 3D seat, Zotz PTO decals and masks, along with Brassin wheels. As always, the finishing touches in the cockpit are Barracuda placards, and we’ll go back and touch up the obvious sins shown here on the camera. Period photos show huge dust and dirt build up on the tail and rear fuselages of these PTO kites. Believe it or not, I may even dirty up the tail even a bit more. Some research will be needed on the rear crew bottom hatch. There is NO detail at all on the inside of that door, but for a dimple in each corner.
  9. Hey, don’t single me out! I’m just one guy. Jim, Jeroen, Fran, Martin, Scott, they all make it work. Jim’s and Jeroen are the Internet and web guys, Fran’s the marketing guy, and Martin and Scott are the cops. I just sit back and watch. Th magic comes from them. And y’all make this place what it is! We have guys here pumping out more models in a month than I manage in a year
  10. To start 2024 off right, here’s an old gem from around here from long, long ago, back before the days of cellphone cameras. Don’t mess with old ladies in Texas!
  11. Yes, in 1/32, it’s a toss up between the HK A-20G and the Kotare Spitfire. Both are SUPERB kits. An honorable mention to the ZM FW 190A-4, simply because it’s not only the first mainstream short nose 190 ever, but is probably the best 190 kit of all time. Runner up honorable mention is the 1/24 Airfix Spitfire 9 In 1/48, take your pic: Airfix, in no particular order: Bucc, Sea King, or Gannett. All three are stunningly superb kits that are badly needed in a scale larger than 1/72, and beat of all, all three are FAA crates, which is easily my favorite Branch of Service to model. My thoughts on the year in general? Airfix has left the past firmly behind. WAY behind. HK has produced their best kit EVER, and Kotare, the new kid on the block, has come in swinging with their much needed and greatly appreciated early Spitfire trio Mk 1 early, Mk 1a mid, and Mk Vb. Truly a great year to be a large scale modeler!!!
  12. Hey, I’m so incredibly anxious to put 2023 behind me in the rear view mirror!!! 2024 definitely can’t get any worse, can it?
  13. Check it out and please set it up between each other. Everyone here is a WINNER
  14. She got me one of those as well, for our nightstand. Our nieces are over all the time and I’m sick of having to either lock it up, or carry it in a shoulder rig when thdyre there. So this is a much better choice. Hiding them up high is no longer an option.
  15. My wife got a David Yurman ring. We got cleaned out by a cleaning lady earlier in the year, and she lost almost everything. Then, instead of regular stuff like ammo or boots, I bought her this to keep the squirrels nervous. This thing is freaking INSANE fun. As for me? Not much, although I always ask for got socks and undergarments.
  16. We’re already linked on FB, Jeroen, thanks! If it wasn’t for FB, I’d never be able to keep up with my kids, and the craziness in their lives.
  17. Kotare package held at Customs for 3 weeks and finally released for delivery! I assume it’s simply due to the over abundance of packages coming and going. Has anyone else encountered this lately?
  18. Yes it sure is. Especially when the offending picture was put up for informational purposes only.
