And our other girl loves to just look out the window.

That is a good looking stance. Having an 'experienced' body on it doesn't detract from the overall good looks.

I got into Mini-Zs this was probably a mistake, because now i keep printing bodies and I haven't even raced the car yet.

Ok. I have been a Tamiya collector for a long time. I got my first car, the Grasshopper 2, in 87.

Life and a marriage implosion got in the way a few times but I have always come back.

Here are some pics I took.

What I tend to do with pictures is take them from a greater distance then crop them back to make the file smaller , not sure if it's better but it's simpler for me .

My Samsung phone allows you to simply resize the image. 80% usually works fine.

I can weigh in on this issue of printing on clear sticker paper as well. I had terrible results too, as morrisey0 said. The colored/red areas were too transparent and became almost invisible when applied to a dark painted body. I got much better results making my own sticker images with a black back...

Thanks for the visor tips, that's definitely a great idea! Peterson's visor is the hard part to replicate, if the boxart is strictly adhered to, it has the sun visor portion. I've seen a pic of someone having done that properly, and the jacket in cloth too. https://i.imgur.com/n1HJgpb.jpg Depailler ...

Those goggles are ace ! Etsy is full of these, in Steam Punk, and about every other style you can think of: miniature 1:10 scale goggles - and then clicking on images - got me those goggles above, and led me to Etsy. Most seem to be made for 1/6, 1/12, or 1/18. 1/10 seems to be missing unfortunatel...

I find nothing wrong with offering replacement parts.
If they are made using tooling that AE owns and without their permission, then obviously that's a problem.

After being without a dog for nearly two years (accident), we brought this one home yesterday.
He is a 20 month old Dane that was surrendered to the Humaine Society. He is still on the skinny side but is much better than when they received him.

I took this picture because you just can't make this stuff up.

Criminal!

Not in the post but picked this up today, Finally found a lazer zx-r, it has the wrong top plate , battery holders, front shocks are the shorts and a few odd screws here and there but other than its pretty complete, also has some nice upgrades on it too

Those brushes are shot. There probably isn't any spring tension on them.
