  1. I'm sure you will, Peng, you are a wiz at this!
  2. If you have some Tamiya Smoke, you could try using that to shade some selective panels. And mask and spray some other ones with the same silver from the wing flaps, or even mix the MC8 with MCSF2 for a third shade. Cool seeing the guns on her... except they look a little oversized IMO. Do you have any thin metal tubes? If not, most hardware stores carry some, like K&S brand, that are not that expensive. This is just an example. https://www.acehardware.com/departments/hardware/metal-sheets-and-rods/brass-rods/5172721?store=04731&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIw96Bzpm1hQMVEUVHAR34QQbCEAQYASABEgIFFfD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Loving the progress on the Lady!
  3. That's means Caitlyn is flying! Weeee! I totally missed this post. Looks so cool with the rotor going,.
  4. Many newbies died that day...😢
  5. It looks like Jenny Wright has not acted since 1998, so probably not.
  6. Got that theme song reverberating in my brain, @pengbuzz!
  7. Love the additions to it! It looks great.
  8. That's crossing over into art right there!
  9. There is precedent for the character, and they did introduce Silver Surfer in FF2, now whether you liked it or not..? I'm interested to see if they are merely doing a gender flip (which really doesn't bother me in the least) or if they will take from the character's actual past and use that in the story. To tell the truth, my one draw back so far is Pedro Pascal. I like him enough as an actor, but I never pictured him as Reed. I'll have to see it in action.
  10. @Rock Wow, great lookingf -19! Love the colors on it. @pengbuzz Airwolf is looking great! Bring us moar! As for me, suffering from some paint scullduggery, but it's still moving along.
  11. She's playing Shalla Bal, Immortal Empress of Zenn-la and the lover to Norrin Rad (in the comics.) I wonder if they'll hold to the comics to explain her as being a Silver Surfer, seeing as at one time she also had the Power Cosmic?
  12. I'd be interested to see where they go with it. They did The One and revolutions, so I think it would need to be something different. Staying true to what made it a success is good, bu they could just end up retreading. I was fine with it ending with 4. Heck, I was fine with it ending with 1.
  13. @Rock Don't have that glue, but I'll look into getting some. I put some clear Gator glue into it, then followed that with some PPP. Hopefully that'll 'fix' it. And your light box looks very light!
  14. Will be well worth the effort @Urashiman. As for canopies, I'm finally getting mine in place. Not the most perfect fit, but it's what I got And since my kit is missing the PE fret it left the factory with, I had to make the DF loop and repurpose some unused inner framing as an antenna. I think I can get to masking and paint tomorrow! Happy times with plastic torture devices! Thom
  15. I liked it too. Could have used a bit more with the Big Bad, but I liked it overall, though I feel it does miss some of the 'quipyness' of Afterlife. And yes, less Kumall, or at least someone else playing the part.
  16. Now this looks like restoration work of actual old toys, with clear metal stressing.
  17. It seams like they start out slightly damaged/used but maybe get a little bit 'more weathered' before he starts to clean them. Admitedly, I don't watch these vids, but the few I have seen (posted on here usually) I don't see any body damage work. Just a quick bath and BAM, ready for paint.
  18. IMO, it looks like it may look worse than it is to start. So maybe just a slightly dirty/cracked toy that is 'weathered' a bit more before the cleaning. I admit, I do not watch these, but I think it would take more than just soaping off parts to fix something that's been abandoned/abused.
  19. Chappy, Jeriba, Foley, the most memorable of his roles for me. Looks like I'll be rewatching Enemy Mine soon. Rest in Peace, good sir!
  20. @SteveTheFish Interested to see how that turns out.
  21. Definitely not! If anything, I might suggest doing a little more. From what I recall, Zentradi mechs are very old or/either very well used.
  22. @Urashiman I remember! It may have subconsciously helped in deciding to build this one. I actually wanted a quick build for a model show coming up in a week. And, except for some fiddly construction, it has been. That snow speeder is looking real nice, but don't poo-poo the VF-1 too much. She looks like she'll be a nice shelf queen.
  23. I think it's a little clearer when we put some wings on it. I think, I might know what it's turning into...🤔
