I want to thanks you all, I just love this forum, and here's the reason. There's so much ideas here that it gave me the taste of improving  some old and crappy models I have made.
I think particularly about A-6 Intruder and superbug. The former was changed into a British nuclear bomber (Vendetta GR.1) and the latter (this morning) painted in spanish colors (brown ! green camo).
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Let's see some photos then!

Vendetta is here...http://www.whatifmodelers.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=10264&hl=vendetta
not only old models "resurected" there's also daring, incredible things (B-3 Mata, Mitsubishi Hachi, Conorde bomber...)
The Hornet is on the way, waiting its spanish decals. My girlfriend come back this week end, with its digital camera :)
just want to thanks everyone here :) i thought about that while painting the superbug  ;)

Hey man, lets not forget what you add to the mix here. Every nutjob and goomba here, including yerself makes this a wonderful place. Like the song, we are family and your ideas spawn others and so on and so on.

I love this place cause I can occasionally engage in a debate and learn stuff. I have learned more about the real world hear from these debates and it's sparked further learning. I don't have as much time to build, but the guys here inspire me to read more on subjects and I really love that. Plus Baz shows pics of Mrs. Hitler in boots.... rowwwwrrr! A girl in Galoshes, now if she has her own pick up truck!

The difference with Key Punishing Aviation Forum is astonishing... I'm just disgusted of this forum forever!!! I know some of you here are also member of this forum (think about Deino, which is really an exception!!) so I apologize... but I'm really fed up of threads like "MiG-25 Vs SR-71" lasting 50 pages of raging, insulting posts!

I like the nice, relaxed atmosphere here better.  The only time we have problems is when someone mentions...(phantoms)  :ph34r:

Phantoms arrr... what chance have kids today when their pitiful begging to see 'Pirates of the Carribean 2' are met with 'wait until the 19th of September ye scurvvvvvvy daaaags'

However, I am still prepared to see more of Ms Hitler in boots....

Ms. Hitler's suprisingly unabashed about showing pics of the "real" boots but I doubt this forum could handle it.

Maybe I can self-censor a pic...PG rating?  Pretend it's a still from POTC?

And I also love the guys on this forum (and it's not just the booze talkin'...).

This place can cause a quantum-leap in one's modelling aspirations and daring to try new things.

And, from the past few years of reading posts on here, I finally feel like I understand what some of the British folk at work are saying.

Oh yeah, there was that nasty Twiglets ™ issue, however...   :ph34r:  
Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.

JHM,
It is ok if you just PM the pic to me instead of toning it down for the forum.  I understand.  B)

And did you have to bring up the Twiglet debacle... still got that taste in my mouth.

I am untouched by Twiglets...  and I wish to leave it at that.   :P

This is the first place I go to on the web every morning (after my own webpage, which is my homepage).  I get a kick out of everyone on this board (even those with bizarre infatuations with F-14's  :wacko:  ), and have been inspired to build by many a great idea on this site.  Heck, this site was the one that got me back into modelling again.  I blame y'all.

And I like Phantoms.
