Tamiya M04 build week recently.... gave this the once-over, ready for a new home: M04_01.jpg M04_02.jpg and built these up from a big lot of parts I got a little while ago: M04_03.jpg Sadly, I don't have any spare 225mm Mini bodies other than a couple of Protoform SoCal panel wagons.... so they will...
PETG is slightly different from PET. I don't know the exact difference. For sure it's easier to handle than Lexan, because the temperature range for vacuum forming is uncritical. And it's quite easy and cheap to find. Lexan paint seem to work well. I don't know about the durability (especially compa...

Unexpectedly, Pinky's litter mate came available. I really wasn't looking to get a 2nd Top Cat, but thought I should take it in on the off chance that I need one because there's a sudden Schumacher apocalypse. Apparently not everyone is drawn to the extreme level of weirdness that the Top Cat has, a...
A stream of deliveries over the last few days... Some elements for my printing ongoing projects arrived today (printer, post processing station, isopropylique acoohol and resin). This was expected with an accurate tracking... But there was a package incoming from Australia as well, which I did not e...
