Re: Subject matter

Perhaps I'm one of the few, but I fondly view the original doom monsters. Sadly I have only two of the four kits from Skyhook; the spider demon and the pumpkin (Caco Demon?) I also have the re-released white metal mini sets from whichever mini vendor did it back in about 2012. In decades past there...

Re: Subject matter

After toying with the idea of what to sculpt as I reenter kit production, I just didn’t want to do something that has been done many times before, and I think the hobby would benefit from a new focus from some of the producers (but there is still certainly a demand for the garage kit classics) I’m r...

Re: Subject matter

Reviving an old thread…… been very busy with my new job and renovating our condo myself, so I’ve had little to no time to focus on my next sculpt. But the itch to do my next piece is getting stronger Given my love of his creations, I am still contemplating the idea of doing another Harryhausen piece...

Re: Model Club TV

I think we have to acknowledge that digital sculpting / 3D printing is where the future of creating and producing is going

I think it’s amazing the possibilities this new technology offers.

To me, that’s going to be a good thing

Re: Model Club TV

Scott has quite a bit of knowledge of the 3-D file purchasing industry, and I learn more every time I listen to the show. I pay special attention when he addresses the ethical view of purchasing a file and printing models. Buying and printing them at a time, instead of purchasing castings from someo...

Re: Monsters in motion garbage

Faye sassy satellite and Fitton of MIM were both known to be re-casters in many instances over the years… too numerous to list them all

I thought it was common knowledge to most of the hobby, but some people don’t want to be controversial and dont come out and say it. But I’ll say it

Re: Monsters in motion garbage

Years ago, I was offered for Fitton to sell a few of my pieces through MIM. With the agreement he has to buy a minimum of five, I think it was. It was agreed. Next, he would not buy ANY He’d First take your pictures from your site/ auction, and list your pieces on the site, as if he had stock He’d t...

Re: Model Club TV

Another good episode

I really enjoy the interview with Terry


once he starts his dialogue rolling, you just can’t stop listening, as he’s a very good, informative, battle-worn spokesman for the hobby

another great episode. Much credit to Jason and Scott both….. bravo

Yes, the bottom pic, Doom Hunter, is among the two I’d narrowed it down to.

Subject matter

Contemplating my “return” sculpt, after being out of the swing for a few years I am leaning towards a character from the game Doom. Certainly not a gaming sized miniature (although doom is not a board game, anyway) , but garage kit scale; around 1/6. I’m hoping being a character from an iconic, 30 y...

Re: Model Club TV

After watching the show regularly I’ve noticed Scott and Jason play off each other very well obviously Jason is a Abbot/straight man and Scott is the Costello/ comedic/ loose cannon aspect of the team. It’s a good blend and their personalities work well together As for the new episode, a really enjo...

This “visual effect” that was the brunette babe (the one that Kong crushed in the ship ) was especially well done.

Re: Model Club TV

Glad to hear the surgery went well. Praying for your full recovery, Scott. They say “you can’t keep a good man down”, and you can’t keep Scott down, either

Re: KONG GODZILLA

Watched it last night. Liked the fight scenes, but we'd need 4 hours sitting around on a nice warm evening, drinking and smoking, to properly rag over the rest of this. To be fair, I think the CGI effects and the sound to the film was incredibly impressive you really got the feel of these were enor...

Re: KONG GODZILLA

I realize it wasnt especially geared towards me at my age of 56, but as a lifelong fan of the King Kong movies, I took this film as being a bit too sci-fi, excess, and hard to “believe/get behind” as it had soooo many elements and scenes that were too 15yr old teen-ish . It was taking the Kong chara...
