Re: What song caught your attention today?

Only a couple went AWOL, other got moved around, and a few others got added. And yet - we now have mayor absences of meaningful smilies on threads/posts going back 20+ years - just saying dude (* © J. Tucky 2006 *) I know this time of year (the run-up to Wonder-infest) is hectic for you - but I wou...

Re: Kitbash: Nazgul Dragon; rework 2024-05-09

Thanks Vlad. I hope to bring it to Wonderfest. But First trick is to complete the painting phase. Second trick is to figure out how to transport it. I have a 10 hour drive to Wonderfest , so this Dragon has to be loaded in vehicle to survive a long trip with no breaks or scuffs. The spikes look gre...

Love the colours Joe - as you say "leathery".

The trick will be figuring out how much is enough, without going too far (bit like my humour . . . but then I never learn :nuts: ).

They found a really inventive way of announcing (some) of the actors/actresses for season 2 - and they look REALLY interesting :) :thumb2:

Re: Next concert on the calandar

Ian - been meaning to ask. Are you going to see Evanescence and Halestorm on Oct 15th? I was really thinking about trying to do the London show, but alas tickets are mobile only. I got the newsletter, but a combination of Evanescence headlining and (especially) given it's in the local cattle shed t...

To celebrate Joe's ongoing recognition and mentorship in the pages of Amazing Figure Modeler! Something along the lines of ah, "Joe-B-Wan Kenobi"? LOL - ah I see . . . I didn't fully take that in 'cos I don't subscribe since they went digital. I think your line has it covered though :lol: .

The "lighter" thingy isn't helping me for scale, but I get the general idea!

Damn good job you are doing these now before your eyes start to give out on you!

One tip that may be useful to others, I wrote the part numbers on the back of all the spars before I cut them from the sprues - they all look similar but are different and all have specific places to go - it's very easy to put them in the wrong places!
