Title: LUAZ 967M
Post by: Rich H on April 16, 2022, 09:38:50 PM: Been a little pre occupied with one thing and another (Charlotte - born on Tuesday!) but managed a commission for Empress: LUAZ-967M
Its a ridiculously tiny Soviet jeep thing: 4x4 and fully amphibious (If you are brave) with seats for 3 or driver +2 stretchers.

Nice work on the motorised skateboard as well.

Does more sleepless nights mean more odd projects?

Post by: Rich H on April 18, 2022, 10:47:14 PM: Thanks all ;D

Er... all my projects are completely sane and rational...
Although I admit my judgement me be impaired lol
(Not sure what my excuse was previously though!)

I mean this is perfectly reasonable:

Post by: FramFramson on April 23, 2022, 06:23:34 PM: The first print's the first photo and the second one's the second photo, right?

I wouldn't say the first print's bad at all. Sure the eyebrow's drooped a bit, but that just gives her character. :D lol

Its the smell and leakage that's the problem!

Post by: carlos marighela on April 23, 2022, 09:30:11 PM: I found that the passage of time and a small fortune in booze made such issues largely disappear. ;)

By the by if you think the smell is bad now just wait until they get to teenage years. There’s a funk that emanates from my son’s bedroom that would probably alarm UN weapons inspectors. My daughter is little better, she’s going through a weird phase where she’s aiming for a personal best for days spent without bathing. She thinks it hilarious. Pity the weather has turned cool, I’ve been wanting to try the spray nozzle on the garden hose.
