It's amazing how hard it is to see things when the tape's still on.

OK, so where are the pics, you airbrushing fiend? Has your GF regretted the day you bought it yet? Looks like you're making excellent use of it, Neo. The silver finish is looking impeccable.

Looking good Neo! That big blue hand's gotta create ALOT of drag on those workbench fly-by's!

Stripes look GREAT! Isn't that just the way it goes?! Do some nice detail work like different shaded panels only to have them get covered up by D-stripes later?

Tony le tigre dit Ils sont géniaux!

Great effort Brian - but I think the problem is not language, but Neo's young age... Here is what a contemporary box of Kellogs' Frosted Flakes looks like in Quebec. My wife remembers seeing Tony's catch-phrase on boxes when she was young - but it's strangely absent now.

In any case, little Max things Neo is doing a great job - just look at his reaction!

Looking good Neo. It's amazing ho just a little bit of colour really adds to the overall effect and breaks up the monotony of the silver. I'm looking forward to more photos. Keep it up.

HAHA did you just google translate that !!

Actually ALF since i grew up in the caribeen we only had the english USA box with the slogan on it and i do remember the commercial on the cartoon network but I didnt see the link between the D-Day stripes and Tony the tiger!

And BTW Max is so cute like that !! Good to know he closes his eyes when hes suntanning!!

Uhhh, no.Why? You didn't know I was fluent in Canadian, er, I mean French?!

Yes of course I googled it. I took two years of French in High School and pretty much only remember Oui, and mais non. Je m'appelle something 'er other.

I think that was just Hammm's way of saying it looked great.

All the decals are shatering #@%^#@#^%#(^!R#^(%@^*#%^%@&@^#)@^#&(^#&)^#&^@ :bandhead2:

Since im not in a habit of quitting of loosing to Hasegawa, this will call for some improvisation. found another set of decals that will match my current paint job (red nose yellow tail)

Bon courage, mon ami!

Don't give up NEO!

I know you'll salvage this.

+1. A little patience is all you need. Take a break and wander around your beautiful city but try not to get caught up in the student silliness. Go down to the Vieux Port and watch the world go by or find a nice restaurant at or near Place Jacques Cartier and enjoy some fine dining with a nice glass of wine. Or you can go clubbing and get your frustration out of your system! :woot.gif: All is not lost, brother. As ALF said, you'll get it right.
