Hi gang, It's been a long and boring day here at the office - I didn't get a whole lot done and that always depresses me. Oh well since Fergie's buying I'll go whole-hog: Filet mignon, baked potato w/sour creme, buttered asparagus tips, and strawberry cheescake for dessert. (Oh yeah, mustn't forget the wildcherry Pepsi...) derJohn , I think you posted your progress pix immediately before I did my most recent submission - looks great, can't wait to see it all painted! Is that a case of Diovan I see at the bottom of the 2nd photo? I could sure use that, the monthly $25 co-pay cuts into my MRR budget... Thanx alot everybody for the kind feedback on the photos, but I used mostly store-bought stuff so I think you guys can do it too! T-Rob - [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by trolleyboy... Nice bash on the KFC as well screams a how to article to me [tup][swg][/quote] Thanx, except I think the guy from Sweden (Pele Soelborg) has already covered that territory... PC - [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by pcarrellThe stream looks great. I actually like that it's backwards! It looks real good. The KFC looks good too. How hard was that update to do? Looks like plastistruct came in handy![/quote]Thanx Phillip, now if I could only figure out how to age backwards...[:D] For the KFC conversion I used scraps of Evergreen (much cheaper than Plastruct!) The most challenging part was cutting out 4 isosceles(sp?) triangles (the kind that are the same length on all 3 sides) and having them line up properly for the rooftop pyramid.

[swg] There'll be time enough for fishin' when the work is done... Don - good to see you here in the Shop again!

[quote]QUOTE: How did you get the ripples in there?[/quote] I used Woodland Scenics Water Effects paste on top of their "Realistic Water" - spread the Water Effects paste on like peanut butter after the Realistic Water solidified. But first, I experimented on a scrap piece of clear styrene. Ozzie-Jim - nice little cop-car graphic, I probably need to get one of those in 1:87 for my Seven-Eleven scene![;)] Inch - always look forward to seeing your CSX r-o-w pix Ryan - Phillip lives within walking distance of that museum, is that a primo neighborhood or what? BTW have you decided what you'll be doing with your new pike in the attic? Attaboy - Your secret is safe with us Steve, we won't tell [:D] . . . Well it's time for me to join the aggressive masses on the overcrowded highways, C-ya later!
