Thanks for sharing the link, Mario. Truly impressive modelling. I love the random squirting of the white glue for the redrock base! Isn't it a joy working in different scales?!

All the best, Mike Hamer

I'm happy to see all the progress you've made.
Try not to stress about finishing.
I know I stress about way too many things and have made it a priority to control my stress.
Quietly working on all those details must be a great stress reliever.

Thanks guys for your kind comments.

I've updates the web page with some better happy snappy's.

It maybe hard to see at the moment, but I have started using Corn Husk for weeds. Another great natural material I discovered while enjoy one of my favourite meals.

Hi Doug. I cannot believe we talked for over 2 hours on the phone the other day, and hardly mentioned modeling. Maybe we will next time

Randy. Opening day is a long way off, but there will be a SALE 50% off everything ( after I add 50% to normal price )

Mike. At times I wonder why rubber gauger's get into various scales. Maybe our attention span is limited to work on one thing at a time. [:-apple]


John & Wes... thanks guys

Rick. How ya doing mate. I study the work of many modelers including chuck D, Nolan, Revelia etc. The list is too long. On days when I feel like crap, I pickup a detail part and see what I can do with it. The work by Anders in recent times, finally inspired me to try the sponge painting method on my 1:24 jerry cans and then I had to put them somewhere. This old project was perfect to give them a home. In hindsight, I would have been better to enjoy my holidays with a beer and meat pie in hand , in front of the telly, relaxing and watching Dr Phil

That's really cool! I like the placement of the building at an angle to the fencing ... the conversion to 1:24 ... all the stuff ... and junk ... and other junk and so forth. Please let us know as there are updates! [:-thumbu]

Thanks guys.

Dallas.
The whole thing is a piece of junk [:-jester].
I probably add updates and photos quicker on facebook, if you ever visit that part of the cyberspace [:-hypnotized]

General Note:

Some of the bad links on this web page have been FIXED. Some more of my junk

Hey M

You mentioned the sponge technique on the jerry cans. Could elaborate a bit more or perhaps steer me to a website showing the technique.

Thanks alot.

Regards
Wes.
