I had another request for this one.

[heppnerguy]

This is the third one of these I have cut. I struggle  with the detailed models/toys but I have found that I always enjoy the challenges of them when I am making them. I originally made it with no painting because I do not  have the talent for doing so. After I gave it to my friend, he said it needed to be painted so it would pop on the shelf. So then that project became even more challenging then if I would  have painted it before assembly. Considering that, I have to say I am  about 85 percent satisfied with the end results.

I  forgot the picture and as soon as I posted it, I tried to edit it in. The program said it was too soon after the post and would not let me post it, so I came back an  hour or so later and was able to do so

Yes it looks better painted.  The more you do the better you will become.  Looks great.

very nice

That's nice Dick.
I love making toys and painting is a bit of a challenge at 1st, but as Marg says, it gets easier and better as time goes by.

Cool combine! Double tough to paint that one after assembly.   

[barb.j.enders]

You keep saying you can't paint.  Proof is in the picture - you can and it looks great!!

that is exactly right.. it is difficult enough for me just to paint one.

that is so  nice of you to say. It did come out better than I thought it  would, especially under the conditions I had to work with, that being that is was already assembled

Great job, Dick. It may have been challenging but you "harvested" a great piece.

Hopefully I can obtain a place in my mind where things look in real as they do in my head, as far as painting  and finishing goes

I have not seen the link yet but I will go back and check it out, I seem to get distracted often when I am on my computer and  often overlook things. Thank  you for the heads up.
