Thanks Todd!!
Great to hear from you 👍 
 

^ Good to be heard, thanks! For many reasons I have been largely inactive in the hobby for several months. I'm trying to pull myself back up and in, so I'll try to bring my two favorite threads up to speed this weekend. I'm trying to remember where I left off, and I think I figured it to my last shared "What did I do" was the XB Mad Bull and my last shared "Mail man" was the Dark Impact I think. I can't remember if I shared my two NXGEN tribute projects (they might be buried in another thread). I think I'll need to go back to March / April, and then there's a pretty big void until September.

Been busier doing a couple bodies for a customer than my own stuff but I did finish this cute little microbus. Always wanted one when I was little and thought that they are worth nothing and will always be around for a couple of hundred dollars. LOL

I do wish that when Tamiya decides to create a decal for a surface, that surface would not be raised. Decals look so much better on a flat surface, raised features are usually for paint. This kits decals were less than desirable and really well thought out. This one is just destined for the driveway so I didn't really get very picky...

I'm fan of the bully. The first one was made by hpi for the mchassis. I made 1 or 2 tamiya bodies for a friend. And they are really nice.
