Hehe, fantastic stuff Polux, very creative. Is that Monica with her power tools again?

Made signs my whole life. Had my own neon shop. I can see the leading edge of your channel letters is not following the rear edge. We would use plastic face with a 1"-2" Trimcap edge on these type of channel letters. Or leave them open faced with exposed neon. Lots of variations. Good work and fun to watch.Lemme know if you require tech input.

Thank you ,Steve

Thank you very much for the advice Steve!!

Will try to do justice at the neon signs! Just allowed me some "artistic license" I'm not an accurate modeller!

Cheers

What letter are we, Polux?Francesco

Errr.....I start the "E" of scale...

I can not build or do modelling all the week, only saturday...and made the Pinkie. Maybe today I found an hour and do something

Don't worry, I don't forget this one

Thanks

Polux

Outstanding job your doing here polux really top stuff

 

[Guest]

Yeah!!

Well.....I finish the "Scale" word.

Seriously, have to write a formal letter to John (Boss), because he must change the name of the forum.....

Better a word with four letters like "Kits" or similar...

I think the last two letters are not equal as the first ones.... will take more care with the next word

Thanks

Polux

Mmmm....na,na

I do it because is more interesting than a simply "Hotel".

I'm really pleased that John give me his permision to build it. The first idea was a thread to build the "forum's pet", but I suppose the members maybe don't like the idea, and don't take part on it....

I know is a joke Si, but here, there isn't money or nothing similar.

Regards

Never entered my head that anything was agreed monetary or otherwise, as you point out, it was just a joke and no offence intended and as you're in the lovely Pyrenees, it is advertising the site over there, as folk will see your wonderful creation. What 'Forum's pet'? Not with you on that one, is that like members would create an animal or something that is a symbol of SMF? Or am I way off, usually am.

BTW, I've heard that John wants to change the name of the forum, something like "international forum for plastic and resin plane, train, car, ships and figures modeling".

In fact I'm really afraid to build the building, well...the superior front part!

Anyway I'm happy because is my first serious attempt at scratch build

Thanks John
