i'm glad your learned how to resist attaching yet another boring pic of your almost finished alfa'g'. it's really quite uninteresting to see every progression you make on it. most people just post the final product with a few smaller pics. better yet, why dont you provide a link to your photo album and you can show us your whole life.

The decals for that kit SUCK. Watch how much you handle them.

it was a little challenging, but it turned out nice. I will post a pict tonight.
you have to use a heat gun (or hair dryer) to shape the decals and form
them onto the body gently. kinda oldskool trick. Not sure if it's even a
trick.

These two responses are EXACTLY what he's after. He's trolling for attention to assuage some area of his heretofore sad existence.

Do the thread a favor. Go to his most recent post and click the "report" button in the upper right corner. Describe that pretty much every one of his eight posts to date have been nothing BUT rude and harrassing...violating forum rules. Also identify, if you believe it to be true, that he's probably got multiple ID's...unless you think this is the only ID he's got. If everybody would do that this morning I'd guess someone would instruct him to cease...possibly even kill the ID.

Don't rely on someone else to do it--take 30 seconds and report him.

Finally, if we ignore him it won't be fun and he'll bugger off.

Done...

As was said earlier, just ignore the posts until something is done. And, keep the pics coming! It looks great so far...

Needless but got to have hop-up #53681 Titanium wheel axle for assembly universals! Got them in my mini and very smooth indeed! Don't think I'll ever have to replace them again.
