Model Car Builders

[MoparManJim]

Okay guys, I'm looking for two (2) people for model car judges. I'm working on setting a model car contest up over on the Scale Auto Mag model car board. I need 2 people that knows model cars to be judges. The only catch is the people that will be judges can't conpeat in the contest though. heres the link to the thread about the discussing so far
http://www.scaleautomag.com/sca/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=50498   

Anyone is welcome to enter.

Do you guys think I should enter or be a judge?

First I would suggest photography lessons.

Step 1. Keep the camera still

[LL1 1967 Coronet]

Let's review how he's doing so far....posting 1000+ messages on dodgecharger in the past three months,  asking questions of what his Charger is worth to nausea, taking guitar lessons ('caus he's gonna be a famous rock star someday), building plastic car models (TWO IN ONE DAY APPARENTLY), maintaining a website of rotting and forgotton mopars, and finally.... the running commentary of how he's discovering all the rare Muscle Cars in Canada  - the LAST thing he needs is photography lessons!

I built two cars in one WEEK, not one day.

Two in one month would be to many for you....  get your ass outside and work on that Charger thats rusting in your driveway...

I was at my grandma's house and I didnt have anything else to do. And the Charger is safe and sound in the water free built on garage.

I remember that its because of a sort of isolated rural area, not practical for paper route, otherwise he would have one in a second.

   Bronze, I will say, although you don't have a job, you are young, most kids don't, don't worry.  and you seem industrious kid, you will be fine,  you are always doing something on computer or models or whatever, instead of watching 40 hours a week of tv like average kid in U.S., or playing nintendo all day.
   You sit on chargerwebsite most of the time, much better,       (I like quake, NFS Carbon was cool)

I know a fella that might be willing to help out. He is the regional head of the RCCA (Radio Control Combat), and an avid model collector & builder. He litterally has hundreds of models, some on display, some still in the box.
If you'd like, I can mention it to him... and YES he is a huge Mopar fanatic... he has a few of the full scale working models in his garage.

[hemigeno]

Send a PM to DC.com member "wingcar builder" (a/k/a Doug D.).  Doug is a phenomenal craftsman in his own right.  Check out these two threads for just a few examples. 

http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,22913.0.html

http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,23079.0.html

There's also a whole forum dedicated to scale models of old racecars here:

http://randyayersmodeling.com/modelingforum/viewforum.php?f=15&sid=a6d2372e4071fe220484ec0d21fd11fb

Doug ought to be able to give some real expertise to whatever you need, if he's not already entered as a competitor.

Hi Jim

I spoke to my friend the scrutinizing model man and Charger fanatic about judging the contest. He is more than familiar with Scale Auto, and stated that he would be willing to judge the contest. If you'd like to contact him, just let me know, and I'll arrange it.

Mike

P.S. Sent you a PM with contact info, just in case.

[69bronzeT5]

[Khyron]

Ok, well Im one of the judges so theres still another spot open

Hey uh wingy...I dont think your sposed to say if your a judge.

[69bronzeT5]

Im just going with what MoparManJim told me.

[Khyron]

but, did you just not post that you were a judge?

[69bronzeT5]

but, did you just not post that you were a judge?

No

[wingcar builder]

I think it's good that they know. i know what i'll be looking for. so that might heighten the competition. besides, i've built a couple of chargers in my day.

[Khyron]

but, did you just not post that you were a judge?

No

dude, don't go changing your post, why to you think I quoted it. 

I swear, your a freaking idiot.

[pettyfan43]

I have been building Model Cars for 32 years. Jim PM'd me at the CGLFC and asked if I would be a judge, but I HATE judging models! I know how I feel when somebody is picking my stuff apart, so I won't do it anymore. I just don't like picking apart anybody else's work.

I only go to two model shows a year because too many people are way into how many trophies they can score.

I just love to build models to suit me.

I MIGHT build a second gen Charger for this online deal.  I don't know, I have been needing an excuse to build a 440 Daytona!

[69bronzeT5]

but, did you just not post that you were a judge?

No

dude, don't go changing your post, why to you think I quoted it. 

I swear, your a freaking idiot.

I just changed it back

[SeattleCharger]

  bronze kid, I respect a lot that you admited that you might have forgetton what you said and changed your post back,     

       

[LL1 1967 Coronet]

He's nuttier than a shithouse rat.

[MoparManJim]

Im just going with what MoparManJim told me.

I could just say somthing stupid here an make him look bad but I won't though, I did tell him that, this way people can't email the judges and try to get there way to the top and 1st place which I'm not saying that these Judges are that way which i do belive they are on the way up and up list as thats why I contested Wingcar also as I heard from a friend of his that he knows his stuff about chargers reall well so I'm glad to have him onboard the judges table with the other few judges that was pick out. After the contest starts its all up to them and not me on who in the heck wins!

      Jim

[69bronzeT5]

Ya, its up me and the other judges . And Im deffintley not a crooked judge. If anybody trys to get their way to first place by emailing me with a bribe or begging....that will make you lose marks. Not go up marks.

this isn;t even a joke. I checked the SMF forums and was looking for a mod that Troy can limit a user to X amount of posts in a day.... it's still being coded

I tried.

this thread isn't about him, its just we're talking with and about him for alittle being is all like anyone would do when in a group of people how the subject goes to one person for alittle time being then goes to some one else after that. To answer your question about his posts, I can't really say for sure but maybe he's trying to catch up on the stuff he's mist for the past few days  .

why do you want a limit on the number of posts per user per day for? that sounds stupid in my book all togother.

Wish i had time. I won first when i was a kid at a local mall contest. I had a copper 53 ford pu. I took one of my moms old 14k gold chains an used it for the steering wheel and hinges on the tail gate. I haven't did one in years though. Over the last few years did a few diescast - stripped and repainted and decaled some vintage stockers.

[69bronzeT5]

I won 1st place with my 70 GSX that I built

[Khyron]

well, back on subject, I'm done giving attention.

I used to be fairly good at models, But mainly did planes, old WW2 aircraft. The airbrushing and rust was run. I enjoyed the attention to each rivet. but as I get older, I don't have the confidence in my steadiness of my hands.

and I should be working on my Charger instead of a smaller model.

[Bandit72]

He's nuttier than a shithouse rat.

Thats funny!

i always heard it as "nuttier than squirrel shit"

[SeattleCharger]

How about,  More full of it than a shit house rat?   

[MoparManJim]

hey, uh, guys CAN we get back on topice here, man its not about Bronze69 Charger now, we haven't even stated his name in the replys so it could be for anyone now LOL. 

I just updated the Entry list over at the other board so check that thread back out again to see if your name is on the list if you wanted to enter it. I also left a note also about a shertin orange car  .

[69bronzeT5]

Ok, so if somebody enters a General Lee without a flag, I'll know why. Instead of leaving the roof empty, they could add a Canadian or US flag?

All GL entry's should sport the confedrate flag....DAMN IT!

well its okay, as I stated over there that you can cover the flag up for the photo taking of the model, heres a tip, put the flag on the model, place somthing over the flag that will cover it up, but leave like a hair line of the white border of one of the outside edges out in the open with nothing else showing this way the judges will know that it has the flag, also email me or one of the judges with the photo of the flag on the car without it covered up along with you screen name so that I can show the photo to  the judges with out it "going on the board" BUT put the photo with the flag covered up "On the board" for the others to see. This way the judges will see the car in whole and the folks on the board will only see the other photo with the flag covered up.

I also agree with The70RT about the flag, the General should have his flag, with out it hes just another car with #s on his doors. But its you the model car builders to decided which way you want to build the cars, not me! Have fun building them when the contest starts.

That is one reason I don't really visit the Scale Auto board much, the whole pansy politically correct crap.
I quit visiting that board when they started that crap.

hey man, don't blame me for it, I didn't do that stuff or come up with it, I just figure i would let the others know about it in case they built a General Lee model that they couldn't really show the flag on the car [] .

BTW how many people that is entering this contest would like to have a TV and Movie Car Cat added?

that is correct sir, the Race Version shares the spot with Tv and Movie Chargers, the change was a last minute thing. I also just started another thread just for the Charger Build Off also.
