When the model is finished, will it be up-wind or downwind?

That's an important detail.

OK. In the stash: Way too much to build in one lifetime...

...And a certain resin accessory which is perhaps best left undescribed. Smile

I used to tell people who asked what kind of models I did, "I model any vehicle that moved under its own power. Then I modeled a stagecoach.  Then I found a kit of the Gutenberg printing press.  Then a kit of the the Parthenon.  I suspect if I live long enough I will find a kit for every thing in the world I would want to model, and never need to scratchbuild anything.

Given the lively debates that often occur regarding color accuracy relative to federal standards, RLM etc., just imagine the new debates that we can have. I wonder who will be the first to release a "color chip" set.

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

I remember going to a friend of my Father for a cookout and they had a two seat ouithouse with cataloges provided.  Do these kits gone with paper rolls or do you have to make them yourself?

they do this on purpose, so that you can choose the crescent moon or the star, incase you wanted to make the outhouse for males or females...

In OZ, we would call this a dunny, or if the necessary collection services were not available, a long drop. The extra deatail and weathering are mind boggeling. Very, very funny thread. Thanks for the entertainment folks!!
