err do they have 43 yards of sag? If so disregard the instructions. Everyone knows not follow instructions from AM companies anyway. (except for PE of course.)

Wow, tanky. Howd you get the changing GB animation? cool!
In dont have enough patches for that, and the way my kit buildong is going....Disapprove [V]

OK, major problme. the instructions call for 76 links per side. I jut put the 76th link on. Im testing it, and even I can see that if the real thing had this many links the tracks would fall off. Do I disregard the instrucions (english doesnt seem to be their first language anyway.....), or should i follow the party's instructions and make do. Hell, it wouldnt be that unrealistic for a soviet tanks tracks to look like this, would it?

Anyway, this should be some indicator of how much ive done in my modeling area: I found a dead cricket trapped in my masking tape.

Anyway, Im thinking of some way to do something where it will only take 10 seconds to get somethig done, cause thats about how much time Ihave to spare right now
Idiot, i painted the tracks white when they wer supposed to be black, and they originally came in blackBanged Head [banghead]

Ok, spraying paint thinnner on these would be a bad idea, right? cause im seriously considering it.

I think freshman year is awesome, my teachers were trying to "ease" us into the rest of high school, so it was incredibly easy, but now sophomore year is going to be harder, I'll have to actually work this year, damit

freshman year sucked. every freshmen year sucks. but looking back on it now, i realize why. firstly, its the first year of high school, so everybody's trying to push themselves ahead with the older kids and in their own class. secondly, you dont know what to expect which is a pain of course. i also now realize the true value of picking on the freshmen, and what good it does to building character. you learn that after having to sit on a bus for an hour listening to them play obnoxious ring tones over and over, hit on the older girls, and laugh like wood nymphs at bad jokes. junior year is a pain too, mostly due to work load.

pep rallies- WE DONT GET CHEERLEADERS!!!!! curses.....
you dont know what its like until you go a whole month in school with not one good looking girl in a classroom, or any girl for that matter. dances and everthing else take on a whole new importance........

build- not much work done like i said before. ill have it done for Syrcon though, mark it. mostly its a lot of little touch ups, which i hate, becuase they're like the general parts of the build, only smaller and more tedious. does NEbody have a suggestion for some quick 1/72 scale barbed wire?? the best i can think up is using unraveled wire screen. i also found a great site for similar war gamer figures like what im using, so i hope if i ever do anything like this again i can use them. the detail is just superb, and as they're hard plastic or metal, they take paint well, and just look more convincing i think.

i thought i replied, but I cant find my relpy.....

Red Corner. its a smaller commie-esque forum. but caontains many fascists (sorry to say)Sad [:(] (Yep,im still waiting for a promotion on SE!Big Smile [:D])

Still insanely busy. dowloaded the battlefield 2 demo. most awesome game ever. and the CoD 2 demo. for some reason, i like original CoD better. from what i see on the demo, its really nothing new, and the graphics actually look worse than original CoD. anyway, Not much time for modelling. very sad, very sad. Black Eye [B)]
Anyway, high school is still sucking me dry. My math theory teacher is one of the oddest people i have ever met. He actually manged to convince the vast majority of the class (made of some of the smartest kids in the school) that a pencil that he was going to drop would not fall. No joke. I dont know what we were expecting to happen, but with this teacher, you never know. And alos, he's never told us when our test was. he just dropped suble hints, and we were supposed to go from there.
And today we had a pep rally. that was an interesting experience. this is my first real school, as in school that has sports teams that actually do stuff like competing. anyway, so there was the rally, and the whole school was watching the cheerleaders jumping, waving, skipping around in their school uniforms and....Tongue [:P]...Black Eye [B)]....and there was the football team too. anyway....

anyway, illl try to make some room for finishing (finally) my BmP-2. to hell with weathering. It can be done later....right?Sad [:(]Eight Ball [8]
