@@makoajohnson2341 me too! Lots of opportunities to create something unique

@@scalemodelsnail Oh, you're welcome. I'm glad I could help. If you haven't seen my video on something called spru, goo, check that out.It may help you out in filling these gaps

@@smithgroove945 I have a diorama plan for this That sounds fun, stay tuned.

@@snchilders would love to see the pictures. b24ploesti@gmail.com

@@willt9172 agreed, these are really nice. Thanks for watching.

@@ronandanne1 Thanks, I appreciate it. Yeah, that's the thing is, as you get old.You never know what little ailment's gonna crop up next

@@smithgroove945 Yeah, the last 2 out of 3 times I've been to O'Hare It's been a crap fest.

@@390WagonMaster Yeah, I enjoy it a lot more than the snow.That's for sure

@@dmwiggy7661 Thanks for watching and I had planned on doing something like that as well. But they are just so horrible, and if they were a little bit smaller, they would work great for a board game,

@@JustBelowAverageModelCars that is a nice color

@@Bubbasmodelcarshop Thanks this ought to be fun

@@ronandanne1 Thanks for responding. That is definitely in the top 3 of colors. I'm looking at and ultimately might wind up that color depending on how the body work goes.

@@m.e.9974 My very first car was a beautiful gold color and I'm not against that. I just think there's some other ones that I would much prefer to the factory gold that year. But gold is definitely in my top ten

@@c.d.scalemodels9198 Thanks. I know. This is going to take a while to get this project where I want it But, at least we are making slow progress.

@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 That black cherry is a color I've always wanted to try.

@@Dirks_NUMA_Files Thanks for the input. I appreciate it. For many years, I've wanted to do that. Chrysler minivan black cherry. When you get up close to it, it just looks so neat and I think it would be a fun color on a Mustang. And the power for purple is really my leading choice so far. The body is going to be straight, but not perfect for sure. So we'll see where I wind up. That's saturing gold. It's nice when it's new and shiny. But then it fades to kind of a crappy lime gold that I really don't like. A long way to go to we get there, but at least give me some things to think about on the way

@@ronandanne1 Unfortunately, no super glue is far too brittle and has no sheer strength. Whatsoever, the best thing to do is use tamia.Ultra thin cement.And if that doesn't do it, then you have to heat it up and melt it like the instructions say

​@@maddogmervThanks!

@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 Thanks, Pete. I hope so too. It is going to be a real barn burner of a week.

@@makoajohnson2341 Saterday July 20th from 1-5, the kitlinx wharehouse will be open. They are not far from MRS. Check the kitlinx website for more details.

@maddogmerv I'm not able to find any information on theor website, but yeah I've never heard of then I'd love to stop by If they don't generally don't sell put of their warehouse.

@@makoajohnson2341 They are usually online only. However, during the summer months, he is picking 1 day a month. Which is usually the third or fourth Saturday, from 1 until 5 to open his doors and let people come check out the warehouse. I'll have to try and look up the address and post it for you

@@maddogmerv your awesome

@@Bubbasmodelcarshop You're very welcome. Yes, there was some very inspirational pieces there.

@@JustBelowAverageModelCars check the ipms salt lake city group or the northern Utan modelers, both on facebook.

@@maddogmerv Thanks!

@@m.e.9974 Oh, thank you. I appreciate it. It's gonna be fun when I have all six of them together and a diarrhoma.I think

@@maddogmerv yes,that will be extraordinary and cool to see what you do.

@@brianfoley3925 Thanks for commenting. Yes, it really does take a whole new skill. Level and mindset, but once you master how to use these parts. They are superior to pretty much everything, including most scratch building.

@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 So there are 4 good sources. I've found one is the Tamiya. M4A3 kit, another is an Azuka kit ( Although I'm not sure which one I have several, but i don't usually like to build the azuka kits, so they're more sitting in my collection than anything else.) Dragon has an M4A3 late. It says ETO on the box. And finally, the one that I'm using is the Academy M4A2 Pacific Sherman. It is a late model M4A2 and has a high bustle turret in it. It even has the split commander's hatch, which is what I need.

@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 You probably already know this, but you will need an M4A1 Hull with the small hatches that have the dome in them. That coupled with the high bustle, turret, with the split commander's hatch, and you'll be able to properly replicate aunt Jemima one And 2.

@@maddogmerv I must admit I've done no research yet,apart from looking for the roller kit. I've been trying to remember if any cheap old italeri or tamiya kits had turret. I haven't thought seriously about Sherman's for years and do have loads of books and articles on them, mainly Zaloga and imperial war museum. I just bought a neat kit of Stuart radial engine and two fitters

I did wonder about italeri kit with deep waders,but it meant moving about 20 other kits to get to it🤣🤣.

@@smithgroove945 Spokennoise.I definitely have a fun one in mind for this new figure

@@felixculpa6240 Yeah, I think it'll look pretty interesting in front of the proper Sherman. I'm assembling the parts for the correct version of the Sherman right now.

@@smithgroove945 That Vette ought to be real awesome. I plan on doing the correct version of this tank and am currently getting the pieces in order that I need for the build.

@@aaronbegay7159 Thank you. I hope you had a great fourth. As well, it was pretty much off the hook here at my place.

@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 So as I was picking up the kit.I needed for the Correct turret on this build, I found a box of figures from some company that I can't even pronounce the name. But they are British driver figures and one of the figures is a standing woman that looks suspiciously like princess Elizabeth when she served during W. W2.

@@maddogmerv I've seen the figure set👍😃 . I haven't been able to find the mineroller here yet😟

Well, thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. There were a lot of very good and inspiring models at the show.

Inspires one to try Shadowboxes. Thanks for sharing. Arrr where's my coffee ye scurvy dogs.

It's tough to have to work in a warehouse like that. Because when you're not helping somebody find something you're snooping around and looking at new things that you've never seen or even new existed before it makes it A real adventure to see what I'm going to come out of there with.

@@smithgroove945 Shadow boxes are so much fun to put together And plan. So many fun things you can do with them. You know, I wound up Never getting my coffee yesterday! The trip back from the lake was good, but when I got home it was close to a 100° at the house. The mountains were a much cooler place, very beautiful and the nights were great. We were in an area that with the clear skies, you could see the Milky Way very easily.

Those boxed dioramas are very well thought out. It's an interesting concept👍👍🤔

@@TheMuscleCarModeler Thanks, my friend. I'm going to be reviewing a 3. D printed 1968 Mustang Coupe body here in a week from Thursday that I had gotten off of eBay. Don't know if you've seen any of these or not, but stay tuned.
