Yep, I noticed that, too. Google's image search has become pretty useless, even if you are looking for paper models. You are taken almost immediately to Pinterest and then, after scrolling a bit, it asks you to register. WHY? What's the reason for that? I simply don't get it.

Anyone who signs up for Pinterest gives them ownership of pictures they don't own. Even in Google's non image search I click the space bar and put in -pinterest. You must have a space between the last letter or number and -pinterest. That removes it from the results. 
Same here!!! as well as with search for meshes -Turbosquid -blabla -blabla add them on and get back to what you are really searching for... and you can also add INTEXT: Phrase -pinterest on a web wide search and pull up web references before you switch to an image search and get a deeper more focused search!I always type -pinterest, with a space, before the last word of the phrase or word, when using Google Images search, it takes you deeper inside of websites. It seems that Pinterest has taken over Google Images.
Focused...gives me

That must have been like driving an EZ Bake Oven, with all that glass!
That's an interesting point.
ompus: Some of the scenes they made with this in the desert in OtherWorld must have been fun to make!Sky Seeker

Gandolf,
That's a nice shot of the LR car!
Where did you find it?Sky Seeker

What's making these shots special is that you can clearly see different markings at the sides. I'm so grateful to have them because that allows me to add these markings to the final kit.

That'll be neat! That's the thing I love about cardstock modeling is the easy adaptability.

Great idea for models, R-Fan. I've always had an a sort of fond thing for Logan's Run, not as much because I love the film, but because I watched them film some scenes at the Ft Worth Water Gardens. I actually hung around near Ustinov, York and Auutter quite a bit, though I didn't actually meet them. Then a couple of decades later I spend 8 years working in the office building used as Sandman HQ. Part of my job was surveying the conference rooms on all 17 stories every morning and I got a good workout running the stairs. Come to think of it, I left my Logan's Run DVD in the media room over there.
@paper hollywood : That sounds awesome! I love these stories from the good ol' days. Cherish them these times will never come back.

Hey RF - in between renovations on your flat & living between boxes
- anything new on the Sandman Car?Just wondering....
Still on the bench. However, "CUTTI" showed me that my approach of tackling the curves might work in real life. So that's a good sign.
Small update!
After the care center build I have been suffering from a severe case of sinusitis again for the first time in three years (yes, the face masks helped a lot to prevent this ). I'm unable to glue anything together till my nose is fine, so I thought it would not be a bad idea to continue with some CG work. And here we are again! The Sandman car finally has gotten its interior. Granted, it is fairly simple, but it was fairly simple in the show. Here are some renders of the actual thing:
