great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!! number 1
Posted by duckman on Tuesday, July 8, 2003 11:56 PM
you know the if you ask me nothin looks like dirt than dirt!
and the other day i when out in to the busch and got some dirt and brought it home to sift it with the mesh form my window frame and i figured that wasnt doin anythin to help so i lloked in my garage and found a old speaker cover and i decided to try it and i was so impressed with the fine turf it made and i just felt like passin on the word!!!!

PS theis process of sifting takes a log time!

thats true. I always use the finest dirt i can find sifting out the big chunks ofcourst rather than buying that cheap stuff at the store.

Lol! My loving wife brought down the wrath of God unto to me when she found me using her "good" collander to sift dirt for my 1/6th Stuart tank!

The reson I dont have room is because I still have litteraly hundreds models from when I was first starting out...most of them suck so I decided instead of waisting thousands of dollars on new kits I would use those to learn with... anyways I'm starting to get rid of some of them to make roomDisapprove [V]... I'm not a big fan of ships but I am keeping my USS Missouri because I did an exceptional job on it I think. I will be starting a collection of 1/72 scale Axis and Allied WWII tanks soon.

Hey SgtMuggs,
Just wondering by chance are you from Ohio and is your Stuart scratch built?
Did you attend BuffCon(Buffalo) this past April??
Flaps up, Mike

  If you would listen to everybody about the inaccuracies, most of the kits on your shelf would not have been built Too Close For Guns, Switching To Finger
