As I grow ever closer to finnishing one project,I will be cracking this one out to get it going. It's to be a mild kustom,using AMT's kit and Jimmy Flintstone'd resin body...   Hope to get going on this one by week's end ;D |

This will make a "KILLER" custom. I will be watching for the build of it.

Got the body washed (Westley's Bleach-White) and deflashed today (a purdy big undertakin' with JF bodies,LOL!),and it's currently soaking for the next 12 hours or so. It's a little rough around the edges,but every JF body I've seen has been,but hey,killer subject matter resin body for under 15 bucks? Well worth it ;D   |

Any updates on this one? I just got that kit back out to start working on it. I starting building it back in the late '80's for my brother as he was born in '56...

I thought I had updated this earlier...sorry  (that's the embarrassed smilie,LOL). It's not been touched since that last post. Been so much going on around here,I haven't had opportunity to work on anything model related. It will most likely go into the "will build this one over many months" pile too...besides that I want to take my time and get all the details just right,I received a grail kit for Christmas,so...LMBO! Sorry,but I will try and get back on this one soon,but not till next year (um...that's next week  ) when the kids are back in school...between snow dayz and winter vacation,the've been home every day but 2 for over a month |

Thanks for the update and I'll be watching for it!! If I have time today I'll post the one I'm working on, that is if I get done with moving my work area from one side of the loft to the other side!!!
