frosty's ersatz m10 progress report UPDATE

Reminds me of my month in Belgium. The building anyway.

Bill:
thanx 4 the link !

that's the one i was trying 2 display ...
i just can't seem to figure out how to copy the URL from the page,
& typing in the address doesn't seem 2 work anymore.
there's another pic of the dio also, a closer shot...
and a pic of the rear end w/ the lights installed also.
i redid the spare trax, and added another circle star decal up top.
also did a bit of 'muddying up'...

still have 2 add chalk weathering, but i'm happy w/ the way it's turning out !

thanx again 4 ur help !

Frosty,

Go to the gallery, double click on the thumnail picture to bring up the full sized one, right click on the picture and click on properties. Left drag your mouse over the address shown (make sure you include the http:// all the way through the .jpg. Let go of the button, the address should be highlighted, do a copy (I do it by holding down the CTRL key and pressing the C key, then go back to the window that has the forum in it. Open a new message (don't use quick reply), and paste the link you just copied into the message. Highlight the link and click on the insert image icon at the top. That should put the [ i m g ] and [ / i m g ] characters at the front and end of the link.

This is all assuming you're using a PC and not a MAC. Not sure exactly how you do it with a MAC!

(I can't remember how to upload the pics to Ron's site, so you are ahead of me!! I need to look for the page of instructions I have at home!)

That's terrible. I didn't think they still had burned out buildings in Belgium! lol

Bill

Bill & Chris:
thanx 4 the kind words !
i'm trying 2 upload as many pix as i can while my camera battery lasts
& while i'm on the terminal w/ the USB port...
gotta maximize my upload time !

frosty

Bill:
thanx, thanx, & thanx again !
u r a true pal !

& 2 upload, i go to the gen modeleing discussion forum, click on the upload photos sticky post, login w/ 'newfsm' & 'models' (no quotes), click on admin options to get the upload function... then i check my pic files 2 get the address of the pic i want 2 upload, & use the browse function of the upload page 2 find the file ...click on the file u want ... then click 'open' & the file will be entered in the file name section.... enter a caption, then click on 'upload now' grey box at bottom...
there's probably an easier way, but that works 4 me...

thanks again 4 ur help !!!

frosty

Looks righteous Frosty... I like it. See you have been playing in the mud with your kitty since the last time I saw it... I am still impressed with the conversion work... it looks factory done... great job.

Kennethc[:

Nice Job Frosty!

Thanks for the update

Ron

Sweet job Frosty. You've been busy. I like the building and of course the scratchbuilt kitty.

Great stuff, Frosty! Real nice stuff! You are developping your skills very rapidly. Scary!

Very nice Frosty. Good job on the ruins and of course on the M10 Ersatz. DJ should indeed be scared as you are doing a great job on Braille Scale that he might find his customers ordering from you instead. Isn't that right DJ? LOL.

hiya, gang !
thanx 2 u all 4 the kind words !
i still have 2 put the floor section in on the left side of the ruined building,
and do a lot of weathering...
debating whether 2 add a few figures, got a set of hasegawa US infantry on the
shelf that would do just fine...
just have 2 add some blue scarves 2 the uniform (recognition code so the Germans would know these were their guys disguised as US troops)
i'll keep at it, but going 2 switch over 2 the sherman project full force
over the next month or so or i'll never get it done in time
(petbat was definitely rite on that score !)

DT: i'd never want 2 swipe business from Domi (even if i did have the skills)...
he's got a family 2 feed !
but thanx 4 believeing in me !

best wishes 2 all,

frosty

Very nice Frosty.

Looks great frosty!!!!!!!!


I hope someday mine come out that well!!!!


Can't wait to see more!!

Frosty, that is looking great!!! Excellent work on the tank and the dio. I can't wait to see the finished product with the weathering and figures. Keep up the good work! You're doing us Eric's (and Erica's) proud!

Eric

Nice tank and dio setting, Frosty!

Regards, Dan

Real nice Frosty. Nothing like trying to park your tank in the garage...backwards.

Last time my wife tried that with her car, I had to replace the garage door slider, do some panel work and replace the rear tail light.

petbat:
LOL !
maybe i should title the dio 'small parking mishap near Malmedy, 12/21/44'...

question 4 everyone:
does the dio need some snow ? i'm thinking maybe it does...

frosty

Frosty, I think it looks fine the way it is, but it would also look good with some snow. So do it how ever you'd like.

How's that for being non commital??

Eric

nice work frosty!
