sobra ka naman :-)

ill try to attend the next meeting which is on feb what? ill be bringing some of my works para malason ko pag-iisip nyo na gumawa na ng kotse hehehehe

honestly, gusto ko talaga sumali kaso baka ma-out-of-place ako kasi i really prefer doing cars pero ive tried military subjects na and i really did enjoy it too naman

hopefully ill be able to come sa next meet



Hi Crismag,

I know what you mean. Many potential members actually hesitate joining because they THINK they will be out-of-place for a number of reasons. In my case I thought I wouldn't fit in because puro magagaling and mga taga IPMS. Now I know better.

Many new members in fact feel being one-of-the-guys on their first day. Ask your fellow Armorama buddies like Jeepney, Fritz & LaTtex (who are now members) or even those who we have met in Operation JiMiNy Cricket (GIBeregovoy, Flex, Shonen Red, Lonewolf, Jomz).

I was like you when I joined in 1994. I was a car modeler then I was brainwashed into becoming an aircraft modeler. Kidding aside, guys like you & Jomz will give me inspiration to finally build my collection of cars & trucks. Seriously, the hobby of modeling is made more fun if you are amongst fellow modelers, regardless of preferred modeling subjects, di ba?

The next meeting is on the 3rd Sunday, Feb. 15 at 2:00 pm, UP Diliman Colelge of Fine Arts.

Shall we see you there?

Hunter

Okay! Puro kalog kami doon. Bring some of your work (I like to see your diorama of the airborne rally car). This is one sure way of meeting the members. They will gravitate to you like flies to honey:)

Cheers,

Hunter

DITTO.

When I finish my THESIS I'm going to make sure I drop by every meeting! Haha! It kinda gets boring when me and my exacto blade, plus the occasional drop-ins of the girlfriend -- are the only people I get to discuss modelling with. Haha!

Alright Jomz & Crismag! I'll look forward to welcoming both of you to the Club. I'm really serious in finishing all my collection of car models, so I need tips & suggestions from you guys.

Hello Crismag,
I've seen your work in the galleries and believe me, I already see the "Car Boss" of IPMS Phils. BAC. Your presence along with Lattex and Jomz will definitely spark an interest in cars. Ganun lang naman sa club. When enough guys start building a certain subject, nahahawa lahat. So I look forward to meeting you soon. I have 1/12 cars that I would like to see built in this lifetime.

Cris has a following at AF, too, so the guys on the phorum know! Haha! Binugaw ba! I've seen threads at AF wherein even the moderators who are seasoned car-modellers have their jaws floored by cris' works.

I'm looking forward to meeting you, too! Although, I hope my quirks on you being Fritz' dad don't get in the way, to the point na may dala ka na na TREBUCHET! Haha! I'm going to bring some stuff to, if I find the time to make some mufflers, I'd be more than happy to give some to you! and to byron, as well!

I've been able to spot a 1:10 ata na Veilside S15 Sylvia by FUJIMI (they also make a 1:24 counterpart) at STC Greenhills, it was going for around Php 3,500 last time I was there. Though it being FUJIMI, I'm pretty sure it's curbside -- plus I've seen the 1:24 kit, nothing really special about it, just the Veilside decals and a body-kit to boot. Mas sulit yung race-cars nila na merong tuner-decals.

lakas ko naman sayo jomz, wala ako pambayad nyan hehehe
jomz ive seen your scratchbuild mufflers and its really impressive 1:10?! laki nun a! kaya lang baka nga curbside lang yung kit kaya hindi rin sulit, hanap ko nga sa big scale cars e yung oppurtunity to superdetail the engine. anyway sana nga makaatend tayo sa next meet, dont worry bout the Fritz issue, la yun

Mwahaha! RE: the 1:10 scale car, yeah 1:10 yung tingin ko eh, don't worry this Sat dadaan ako dun I'll try to verify, and maybe get some old-stock cars sa Nova Fontana which are attractively priced at 300 below, per car! Haha! Though, medyo steep pa ren kasi wala na yung decals sa set -- it's pretty rare to find a FUJIMI car kit to be priced at around that range -- then again, there's the FUJIMI issue again.

the mufflers I made I patterned after the HKS line of mufflers, I have a new idea brewing up a muffler with a curled tip -- I'll post pics of it when I finish it.

Tama ka dun sa pwedeng i-super detail yung makina nang 1:10, IMO the whole engine could be another kit in itself, too. Right?

I'll try to procure the 4000 grit sand-paper, and maybe bring it when I finish my thesis, and finalize my IPMS: BAC membership.

I have the Tamiya Porsche 934 and 935, the old classics. I also have an Otaki BMW 3 series. I know Ihave a Doyusha MBenz 450 SLC but I can't seem to find it. When I had my store I let a 1/12th Tamiya Tyrell 6-wheeler slip by. Should have kept it but I guess business is business.

Thanks Jomz for the kind offer. I know I can use that in one of my car models.

Just curious...Have you or Crismag participated in any of the previous Motorex shows? The annual Moterex show had a model car contest. Nakasali ba kayo doon?

AFAIK, the most recent Motorex exhibit was in 2002 October, after the September exhibit at Harrisons which you (crismag), Jeep, and I participated (as well as the rest of IPMS). The October exhibit was solely on civilian cars, with the exception of military softskins and, I quote from the rules, "... no offensive weapons installed." That means anything bigger than a peashooter is bad. To be serious, I think the weapon was limited to 12.7mm and below, hence Humvees would be accepted.

I wish I could pero hard to find na mga 'to! Hopefully Tamiya re-issues it someday. They re-issued the old BMW 320i so baka! Both kits do come with engine detail. Actually it's one of their more complete kits in terms of interior and engine. But I'm sure someone like you would do wonders to the kit.

In my recollection, the October 2002 Motorex was the last one.

Crismag, once you & Jomz become members I'm going to push for an Internal Car contest for a start. Let's see where it goes from there.

If you guys know of other car modelers out there, invite them to join also, para mas masaya. We'll give the aircraft & armor modelers of IPMS Philippines Bert Anido a run for their money

Cheers,

Hunter

thanks a lot hunter for opening your doors to us car modellers

Hey Guys,

I hope this announcement is not too late.

If you would like to meet a real live Filipino Aerobatic pilot (he flew 2 demonstration displays in Clark recently) please come to the Sunday meeting.

He cannot stay long because he has another meeting to attend to but he agreed to pass by UP. So be early!

At the very least, this might give you a chance for another EB.

Cheers,

Hunter
