    They all came home

    Well this day has seen a mixed bag of emotions. While I have moved on in my life and have a wonderful lady in my life, the lady who I lost due to some poor choices, but who until this week had remained civil and freindly to me, decided to just plain flip. w While she has been with someone...

    Viper Assault Craft.

    What is the R-F. Id love to see the work on this Viper. It actually looks like a multi platform. Looks like it still has some dogfight ability but more of a heavy bomber type. Realy really cool look. Beastly. Is there a link to watch the process or see it at?

    Found a cool little site.

    Hahahaha. WHEEEEW. I thought for so long that gluing cats to dogs was just my own closet thing. Glad to be in good company. I also discovered that the butter trick works well as revell-fan said. While that was not the intention when placing those same glued cats and dogs in a butter bath, i did...

    Biblical themed paper models

    Hey thank you so much Zathros. Yeah, I kinda left it pretty broad scope on the time frame, hoping that would rake in a few more leaves, as its pretty hard to find anything around the time of Christ and before, in the way of architectural models. Thank you so much for your idea and help. I...

    Biblical themed paper models

    Hello everyone. I have been looking for but not have had much luck finding Biblical themed paper models. By that I mean mostly architectural models of specific buildings like Solomon's temple or temple on the mount,or smaller home type buildings or small villages that reflect the architecture...

    Collection of Racing Sailboats K-16 Class

    Zathros, If you design the Hobie or any kind of Catamaran, do you plan to make it available? I ask because I also really love that double hull type. I'd also be really interested in a trimaran. When I lived in Seattle, doing fiberglass repair on boats and aquatic vehicles, one of the marinas...

    Limited Edition PBY Catalina

    This is going to sound like a nit picky thing to address. While i actually loved the heck out of it and would probably buy it, had i not the terrible misfortune of the money trees and six pence shrubs in my yard burned up this psst summer. one thing that stood out to me was that as big and...

    OmniChrome Foiling for metallic surfaces

    Back in 1990 I was attending the Art Institute of Seattle, for graphic design/commercial art. It didnt pan out..$$$$. That said, one of the things that i had taken away from that, that I always thought was really cool was an application in graphic presentation projects that I had done called...

    Thank you very much. I have the worst luck ever with computers. Heres how badly. My lady's dad had a short stint at doing computer repair and disgnostic related work contracted by NASA back when he was just out of the military. She brought him one of many computers that hsd just dorked out on...

    Solar cells..effective enough.

    Tomorrow Im going to try to create the frame/grid of a solar array, out of strips of very very thinly cut BARE-METAL foil, applied to the face of acetate, following the printed lines. Crossing my fingers. I really want it to work. I know its possible in certain scales. I'll picture log it for...

    Solar cells..effective enough.

    The bare metal foil was actually the stuff you can pick up at local model shops. actually its the aluminum and gold BARE-METAL FOIL (tm). The model is a bit old and has been handled enough to have worn the ink off of the metal foil bits. This was a simple test bed model to try out different...

    3D heads paper models

    Rogerio, that explanation actually made me laugh pretty good. I imagined 2 people having that conversation at work, and someone within earshot in the next office over or in a bathroom stall, overhears just that part you said, and ooohhh what they must be thinking with a horrified look...
