Pop Tarts is good. I used to kill for those but I've cut back on them. Can't afford to put on more weight eating those. LOL!Stikpusher wrote:Pop Tarts of course...BlackSheep214 wrote:The meshes more likely netting to store stuff. Like a box of Twinkies or something....

I still love them too. But like you I have to cut back on indulging in them because I no longer have that 18-22 year old's metabolism anymore. And I have worked too hard over the past few years getting back into proper shape to blow it now...

That North Americans build strange cars, civilian and military. Period.
Thomas, good to see your skills playing around on plastic again. Always a pleasure to see!

Re: 4x4 MRAP Kinetic 1/35
Thank you!! 
The vehicle has now got all windows. I must say that adding the clear parts made me say some really bad words... Fit of the windows was just awful; may the clear parts be a fraction too tall, or the recesses a little bit to small, dunno. Maybe the single coat of the sand colour had applied made fitting the clear parts a nightmare?
Whatever. Work now has been continued on handrails and antennae. Lots of stuff has to be cleaned from seams and fine flash, to be added to the roof and upper parts of the MRAP. When I came to the largest antenna part I knew I could not use this part. Instead of being a round structure it had an oval shape and... bonus! ... some mould mismatch. Nice.
I decided to try to make this antenna from scratch. Hope one of you guys could tell me the designation of this one. Well, here is a comparison shot with the kit part and mine. Mine is the brighter one...

That's what you get for cracking on dogs! I really hate it when windows don't fit properly. Nice antenna, though.
