Hey, don't go too hard on us "young'uns" you little whipper-snapper. Like Moses, I turn 30 in April, and I have to shave my head to hide the increasing acreage of my bald spot, not to mention my greying gotee. Kids (and old, persnikity people) will do that to you.

Hey Erush, remind me never to get in a debate with you like I did with Leopold. [:0] LOL . You look like you were probably a pretty good football player at one time before model building took over. Do you have any little ones?

Erock, you have a very cute lttle charmer there, your a lucky guy. Have any others?

Hey Muzzle, I like the 1:1 P-38 your standing next to. Where are you and can you give a little lowdown on the plane?

Yeah, its my 1:1 scratchbuild, took a few days to make :P


August, 2003 in Frederick Maryland there was an airshow (private, non military sponsored) and mostly warbirds! I have gazillions of pics from different shows from each year (different aircraft fly in).

That P-38 is one of the very rare P-38's still flying. It is one of my favorites and I FINALLY got to see one :) I posted in the aircraft forum in august, here's the post http://www.finescale.com/fsm/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6462

Moses,
don't sweat 30. with any luck, you'll get a lot older than that. after all, there is only one thing known that halts the aging process! and i have too many kits i need to build first. :-)

i am 37 in a month, receding, greying, and not caring a bit.
as my grandpa (87) says - "It's a good life if you don't weaken."
:-)

i just can't figure out:
is our hair falling out, or do these kits make us pull it out?
:-)

Tigerman, I played a little ball in highschool but I was actually 5'8" 130lbs when I graduated Tongue [:P] Now I'm 5'11" and around 225-230 Tongue [:P] Big Smile [:D] Don't worry though, I can take a civil discussion wether it's in agreement or not so don't worry about me trackin ya down Big Smile [:D] Big Smile [:D] Tongue [:P] I don't have any kids...yet? That's still to be determined at a future date. I think that's why my hair's not gray yet Wink [;)]

Moses, 3 day's after your child is born you will feel 10 years older than you do now, Big Smile [:D] but it's worth it. I've got 10 nieces and nephews, 2 grandnieces (twins and cuter than a speckeled puppy) and have had step kids in my previous marrige so I've had plenty of dealings with them.

Sherm,

Yep, I'm a NASCAR fan. It doesn't seem the same without Dale Earnhardt though. I was a fan of his, when he won his first Championship. I go to 2 races a year: Michigan in June and Bristol in August.

Tiger,

I have two other children (stepchildren really) Stephanie who is 11 and Adam who is 14 (and is discovering that girls aren't yucky anymore Wink [;)] )

Nice to put a face to a tag guys- didn't realise so many of us were of "indeterminate age"[:0].

Don't worry about children eating into your modelling time.....Worry about them when they become teenagers and either eat into into your kit buying funds or just nag you to let them have that special kit you've been holding onto for just the right momentBig Smile [:D]

By the way, kids are the fastest way to lose your hair...not modelling armour. Trust me, I have a 15 year old, 14 year old and 3 year old. All boys though, so no need to buy a shotgon for intimidating prospective boyfriendsTongue [:P]

No offence Sherm, but guys, if they moulded Robert in 1/35th scale, do you think the belly would fit in the tiger turret anywayBig Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D] (I'm not exactly wisp thin either shermTongue [:P])

Happy Modelling

Peter - No offence taken. Funny thing is, I have determined through exhaustive testing and research, that it is actually easier for short round people to get in and out through the hatches of a tank than it is for a person who is over 5'11".
Of course after doing the field testing, I compiled the data at a table at my local all-you-can-eat Chinese Buffet.

SF, Erush & Erock,

Now that's hysterical !

Renarts, - see what happens when you reach out and expose just a little of your intellectual and creative side.


You guys can rest assured, I'll never put my picture up here. ( that and the witness relocation program doesn't allow me to do it)

Renarts- Shiver me timbers matey, it takes some balls to post a pic like that, it does. No pun intended. LOL Big Smile [:D] At least you had the balls to post your pic. Oh, there I go again. LOL I'd think of posting mine, but I don't want Leopold to use my picture as a dartboard. [:0]
