Me and my bright ideas. I decided one "part" of one of my contest projects needed to be in another position. So, I chopped it off, moved it, glued it and filled it with Zap-a-Gap, then after much sanding and more filling, followed up with some filler putty to smooth out the works, and I'm still sanding on this darned thing! I HATE SANDING! Between this, and the new bike project which is also being filled and smoothed out the ying-yang because of grafting the brass to the styrene, it is just aggravating as all getout...I WANNA' BUILD SOMETHING!! Contest project #2 is going to be another aweful lot of sanding since I'm basically going to make the entire body for it.....SIGH...... Sometimes I'm not sure it's worth it....

I don't know how you do it Tim ! .. Without seeing what your artwork will be .. ha ! ... I know a project should be about the build and NOT the artwork of the Decals .. but in MY case .. I have to wait for 'em before I even start 'cause "I ain't got no magination" ....lol..... Chuck D. Me and my bright ideas.

Anyone ever tell you guys your nuts?!! LOL. Love that cat picture. My son loves those pugs, my neighbors have one. So ugly they're cute.... Chuck, I got a name that was made for me! (at least one of them was....) Of course, I got another totally off-the-wall one that will require more imagination, but the wheels are turnin'!!!
