I'm not married.

I've never even had a girl friend.

All in all, im going to try the plaster method first. I assume I can make about 30+ bricks a pop with little effort. I'll try both though.

After hours of stone carving, the walls are up!!!!

You know what, as much as I fantasize about that... I almost don't think I want that. I mean, if I meet a girl into RC, we would probably have to share.

LOL

Who knows, maybe one day!

Yeah, he'll be distracted and MIA in the next decade or so, then he'll be back here to hang out... just like the rest of us

Hey at least you'll both go shopping in RC stores, or would you rather be waiting around outside changing rooms in the girly boutiques?

"Yes dear... that fits you very well, no you don't look fat in it"
"I think the other black top looks better"
"Sure honey, I'll buy you that pair of shoes, its been more then a week since I bought you anything"

Whoops... hey Flyboy don't worry bout it, I was just kidding, my own experiences are just an illustration, your results may vary. Consult board members if fear symptoms persists...

Stick to your RC-Girl of your dreams and ya'll be fine, just buy 2 of everything and you won't have to share

Or just make a lot of money.

I think the price you start the auction was perfect.With the great amount of details you put in to it,it is a fair starting point,and it may keep going up.You are facing the same problem Germans had in WWII.The complexity of the product and amount of hours invested make the production cost higher . keep up the good work

No kidding. :L

That's is just so amazingly (if that's a word) cool!!! I've ALWAYS wanted to make a big Normandy Town (Carentan) diorama! I just don't have the skills yet. What do you use for carving the walls?

P.S. How old are you? Are you in College?

flyboy_fx · Post by **flyboy_fx** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 7:55 am

I just use a #11 razor.

I'm 17, not in college yet.

Getting math tutoring and will probably be registering or what ever next year.

AJWW2 · Post by **AJWW2** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 8:08 am

woah! 17 is just 4 years away for me. I hope I'm as good at modeling etc. as you are by then.

Everybody knows the air force is where the cool people go

flyboy_fx · Post by **flyboy_fx** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 12:23 pm

Not sure on military yet. I know I want to do it... Hard choice.

College first.

As much as I love planes I might not do airfarce, probably the navy. Still unsure. My mom was in the airforce.

The auction on the building close pretty good.This shows how much the 1/18 community is in need of buildings.I bid on it,but i lost.Well at least i know the guy who made this building

I am looking forward to your next build.

pickelhaube · Post by **pickelhaube** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 6:39 pm

I tell you FlyBoy. These look just great.

That first ruin looks like a real bombed out building.

The white plaster build looks like it will be another winner as well.
