  1. i'm just getting socks & underwear . . .
  2. great attention to details here. Q: are the (2) silver & black buttons on the steering wheel spokes "kill" switches? thanks
  3. it all seems to be tied together, and in this case i am trying to isolate the localized application to variegate the surface. almost a "dot-filter" procedure but with smaller dots and not distributing the residual quite so far & wide. edit: the sponge trick is one i had forgotten. must give that a go next time the paints are open. thanks
  4. anyone have a preferred technique for spatter painting? also, for stippling the spattered paint? i tried an internet search but most demonstrations are geared towards big painting projects. specifically interested in: type of brush type of tool to spray bristles how thin to make the paint (acrylic vallejo) how much of any additives (flow enhancer?) how to stipple & blend the larger spatters to add a mottled look anything else that will mke it work for me! i'm hitting about 50% of my desired result just by "doing" - but cannot help think there's a more predictable way to get consistent random (!!!) results. thanks ps: cannot bring myself to use the term spLatter - seems all too icky.
  5. the youtubes are entertaining, but no matter the quaint of propulsion i can only watch grown people bouncing up & down for so long. appreciate the clarification on types of events. had no idea road surface material held a condition of the sport(s).
  6. well done. i trust the detail will not be obliterated with a gaiter!
  7. after all is done, consider making poster size plans available. great décor for the shop.
  8. sorry if your feelings were hurt. i don't think i saw a reply (i usually get an email synopsis of the threads i watch). well, i guess it's like holding a door open for someone and they don't say 'thank you.' sometimes they are preoccupied, and some just plain rude. does that mean YOU should stop being polite?
  9. #2 wife had the same perspective. her previous husband had a sailboat & they would attempt to motor in on occasion - when the %#@* thing would actually start!
  10. been there, well 'duckduck go' is my search engine of choice, but was hoping for a specific reference from someone in the know rather than the ubiquitous shotgun approach
  11. you may find something applicable here: Wires, Cables, Hoses etc | Model Cars and Bike Kits | Accessories | Hiroboy www.hiroboy.com wires,cables,hoses - page 3
