Ahh using my GRU intel (I know him personally if you haven't gathered yet) I deduce that he is extremely busy at his new high school and doesnt have any time for modeling right now.

times are rough my firend. i myself have had to take that path on more than one night. as for competition, like i said even the guy that beat me thought he would lose to me. his bergepanther was a very nice piece i must say though. hes a really good builder, ive seen him at several other shows. NEway, thats how it went. hopefully i can make it to syrcon and cleveland though sometime in october and november. or maybe ill be heading to canadia, i dont know.

tanky wut is this, a facist and a commie, working together?!?!??!!!? didn't the spanish civil war teach you guys NEthing?

no idea reb. it was a piece of eye candy though, ill say that. he had the engine exposed, lots of detail inside, and outside, really nice overall. it was a very clean looking model to me though. all his builds were like that. not to say they were bad, far from it. he does a great job adding differences in the paint, fading it and such. in fact the biggest concern i could find with the bergepanther was that the wires looked liek they had been dusted with that crap some girls wear at dances, glitter or something? NEway, it was a good run. i even got to talk to the guy.

tanky- i have a two word expression that would fit this situation well, but itd be inappropriate, so ill jsut let you ponder over what it would have beenWink [;)]

Its hardly politics. If someone said they hated OR liked bush or the gov, that would be unnacceptable. You can mention things, just dont take a stand on them.

I am with you though, Communism is a pretty good paper government, but in the real world.... lets just say history has proven itself.

(sergie wont like that Big Smile [:D])


In other news, There is a big storm that has come to town, out of the blue. They say its part of Hurricane Max out in the pacific. Snuck up on us, all the sudden it was really dark and really windy. I had a lot of work to do with all of the animals and no help cause my dad was still at work. Got it done ethoughApprove [^]Big Smile [:D]

It sucks cause now its gonna be real muggy, you now, like what you guys have all summerWink [;)] Thats gotta suck!

This thread has a bit of history straying too far off, so let's point it back to discussing the group build so we can keep it going.

nope, fraid i dont tanky, tha was never really my cp of tea, or tequila, if you catch my driftWink [;)]

HERE THEY ARE.....









here're the pics. i know they're abit fuzzy, but i did um freehand. most of the ground work is done. i need to touch up around the barbed wire poles, the signpsot, and the to-be shrub. also along the edging. i need to finish putting on the veneer, then touch that up. im not sure what im gonna use for barbed wire. i need something on hand, but i cant think of anything good for that small scale. the best i can think up is using unraveled mesh screening. the figures are being finished as well. ill cut off their bases before i attach them. btw- anybody have any good suggestions for some small scale camo netting also? i dont have anything that will keep a shape well. NEway, thats it so far

wow, thats a lot! btw, what do you use to attach them? I have a PE set for a 234...
Reb I hate that feeling. I had 3 packages coming, all nice kits, and they arrived in entirely seperate weeks (the last one was from Die Nederlande) I would open the mailbox EVERY DAY right when the mail came, and nothing.
Anyone catch Lost tonight? I like it, but its a weird show

lol, I saw the preview commercial. It looked like an ok show until they find out they are on an Island with a Gov. quarentine facilty. Well, thats what it looked like on the commercial.

gash dang tanky! (harshBig Smile [:D]) PE is small enough! 1/72 is just a death sentence.
scer, I use CA glue for attatching pe. However I heard a product called bindex is the best to use.

looks good gringe. For some 1/72 scale nettingyou could try really fine cheese cloth. Ive got some that looks like it would work. Or maybe some really small mesh or wedding veil.
