  1. Hey gang, Got my hands on my first aftermarket conversion/detail kits for a build I'm working on, but I'm wondering what glues are best to: Glue resin to plastic? Glue metal to plastic? Pretty sure my liquid cement will only get me so far :P Thanks for your guidance in advance!!
  2. You bet! Also, in my very humble and unimportant opinion: Modly is your run-of-the-mill POS and he'll get his
  3. I get what you're saying about only 2.8% of the crew being infected, but look at ANY of the other cruise liners that had outbreaks of COVID-19 and you can see why his fears about an outbreak on his ship was justified. This thing spreads exponentially. Naval leadership apparently wanted to review his conduct and not necessarily remove him from command (yet), but the acting SecNav decided to flex and dismiss him from command. Modly also threw out melodramatic terms like "betrayal" in his address, which is causing grief because statements like that are grounds for court martial... Cro
  4. Unfortunately I couldn't find any swatches of Mr. Color or Gunze, but here is how Humbrol and Vallejo compare.
  5. Geeze, this is a great reminder why we should always model in well ventilated areas and lay off the glue sniffing lol
  6. Completely completely agree. My brother and I work in healthcare (he in Ohio, me in California): the industry is flooding, but only for critical departments like Emergency Medicine and Intensive Care. Elective-surgeries and non-critical procedures/appointments are being cancelled and rescheduled because they are wishing those patients to stay home to also practice social distancing. It's damn terrifying when we're discharging patients with pneumonia (normally hospitalized) from hospitals to make space for more critically ill, COVID19-positive patients. Our colleagues in NY are unfortunately on
  7. Thanks for your help looking into this Scooby!! Much appreciated!
  8. Amen to that brother, I was just surprised that COs allowed their units to wear ears/scalps as necklaces. Then again, there were some COs that literally took Hueys into LZs only to get back onto them again so that they could qualify for their CIBs... what some people did for chest candy I guess
  9. Getting back into the hobby after a ~5 year hiatus and I seem to have misplaced my hose for my Aztek A470. Does anyone know what size air hose couples with the A470? I tried searching for the hoses online, but I can't find any distributors that really stock Aztek/Testors supplies anymore. Did they also go belly up? 😞 TIA!
  10. Interesting indeed. There is a book out called Tiger Force by Michael Sallah and Mitch Weiss -- it's a good read, but it really chronicles some pretty nasty war atrocities by some members of the 101st during Nam.
  11. Have you guys heard of the game War Thunder? It's free to play, though there are "premium" account upgrades that cost money. The gameplay is pretty realistic and the details are superb. I was just wondering if there are any ARC members on the game that I might be playing with/against :P Here's a link to the trailer of the game: http://store.steampowered.com/app/236390/
  12. His eyes, when you see him watch the crash footage, gave me goosebumps. The entire interview was done with such humility. Thank you for sharing this. LTCOL J.S. Blyth
  13. Looking great!!! Bump for progress update? I'm excited to see the final product :D
  14. Thanks guys for the input! I stained them in diluted wood stain and now my house doesn't stick out as much in the neighborhood :P Happy Holidays, everyone!!!
  15. Hey everyone, Have you guys seen the newer LED "white" Christmas lights? They look almost blue. I'm trying to figure out if there is a sure-fire way to dye/tint these LEDs so they look a little warmer. If you don't know what I mean, here's the difference (my lights look like the one on the right side of this video, boooo). I was thinkin, maybe the ARC guys would have a trick up their sleeves to help me with this predicament. I imagined diluted brown shoe polish? It needs to be able to last against the elements/weather because these lights are our outdoor ones. Thank you guys so much i
  16. [i understand not all ARC members are American, but please bear with me] We've always said that we'll never forget, but as I look back now, I can't believe that it has been 10 years since the horrible events of 9/11 took place. The events of that day united a country within an instant, but has that unity lasted? Have we forgotten? In recent months, I've noticed much hostility among Americans -- Democrat vs Republican, Tea Party vs America, Left vs Right... the list goes on. I remember that on that fateful morning, I was only in the 6th grade, my classmates and I were glued to the TV. Young,
  17. i really love this logo tbh, it's very clean and i hope they have a jersey with this as a main crest. this design left as a shoulder patch seems like a waste!
  18. How abouttt, we do the 2nd option first. Then commence the 1st option. I really hope they can resolve this though. Our hero deserves better than this..
  19. Man, I turned the tube off last night after the Cup ceremonies ended and read about small scuffles breaking out around the arena... I never thought it'd turn into a full blown, war-scene riot. I hope everyone in Vancouver is safe, especially those stabbing victims. I can't believe this happened after a loss -- yes, most of the anarchists aren't even hockey fans, but many people in blue and white jerseys participated in the rioting and looting. I guess they jumped on the rioting bandwagon just as easily as they jumped onto the Vancouver hockey bandwagon because it's evident they aren't true fan
  20. +1 Congrats, Boston! Hopefully you guys out there celebrate with a little more restraint than the fans in Vancouver right now.. Great season everyone, can't wait for next year!
  21. LOLuongo !!!!! LuonGOAL !!!!! GO BRUINS !! Take it to those Vancouver CanNOTS >:]
  22. YEAH BRUINS!! LETS GO! ONE MORE Time for Bawston to show these Canucks what it's about! Game 7 is going to be soo intense I can already feel it hahaha
  23. Hehehe +1 And Luongo is gone. Tonight is a good night.
  24. Who else here is really happy that the Bruins are up 3-0 right now :D I can't help but feel a bit elated, both at the fact that Tim Thomas is playing some terrific hockey and that Luongo is finally showing that he's immortal (and very susceptible and deserving of the criticisms of seasons past). I dislike many players on Vancouver's team simply because their hitters always leave their feet when they check. It gets annoying after awhile but meh what can you do.. What do you guys think about those Winnipeg Jets!?
  25. Oh wow, where are my Sharks fans at?! :[ I feel like we're certainly underrepresented here in these forums :P Mmm, it's been awhile since I've last posted but I'm rooting for Boston!!! WHOO GO BRUINS, GIVE THEM HELL BOYS!!!
