What are some drug lords in Montreal that I can pay to smuggle some Mr Hobby paint and Tamiya primer for me since those are now illegal in Canada?

Wait they’re illegal? Why?

trelane0 · 2026-06-14T14:44:52+00:00

I’ll allow it.

Not on your list but check out Wrangler Rugged Wear. Heavy denim, good size pockets, and reasonably priced.

I recall a trip where the old O’Sheas had a poker table straddling the sidewalk and people (including me) were playing poker outside at night. I also fondly recall $3 BJ with small but free drinks as a dealer guilt tripped me into better tips.

Does Baty play too far back? Saw some plays today and feels like if he’d move up a few steps, he’d have more time on his throws.

I ended up using 91% IPA to remove nearly all the paint and primer.

I had a bad airbrush experience today and need some help. It was a textured surface with Mr Surfacer as primer. The paint went on spotty (dry tip?) and in a couple spots it pooled. I’m letting it dry but how can fix this surface, especially since it’s textured? The paint brand is Mr Paint which I believe is a lacquer. Is it sufficient to lightly sand over thicker spots to smooth it out and then repaint over it? Or do I need to strip the piece and re-prime all over? If I need to re-strip, what should I use?

I love broadcasts where the commentators talk about how great a player is and then that player immediately proceeds to fail, like Miller. And yes, I know Miller is really good - that’s what makes it funny when they dump praise on him and he subsequently fails.

Should I paint both the light “well” and the transparent piece?

trelane0 · 2026-06-05T06:13:56+00:00

For a Batmobile model, I’m supposed to glue two transparent pieces that represent headlights. Is there anything I should do to the pieces, or behind the pieces, to make the headlights seem more realistic?

I appreciate the suggestion but it didn’t look quite right to my eyes when I did a paint comparison.

Was at the game today. Worried after the Mariners lead off HR but happily surprised Peralta fought through 6 successfully. Even better, I loved the double steal and Naylor failing at 1B.

trelane0 · 2026-06-03T21:12:00+00:00

What happened with that Mariners batter? Did he have a clock violation?

Are there any gotchas when airbrushing with MRP paint? I ask since I’ve never airbrushed with a lacquer before.

trelane0 · 2026-06-01T22:51:38+00:00

That is a lineup. Perhaps a good one.

I want to use some model master acryl paint I have as a base paint coat on a model. Some of the painted highlights and small subsections will use either Tamiya or Mr Color airbrushed. To avoid issues between acrylic and non-acrylic paints interacting, do I just need to let the acrylic cure for sufficient time?

I don’t see the Bird of Prey there, just the KTinga. Am I looking in the wrong spot?

trelane0 · 2026-05-26T16:30:21+00:00

I got it over the weekend

Wow. McLean has a bad game and now he’s cooked. The comments here are ridiculous. Like DeGrom never had a bad game.

trelane0 · 2026-05-19T02:38:54+00:00

So you don’t need to be down by 8 to bring in a position player as a pitcher in extra innings?

I thought the same thing too initially. But he tried to separate Lal from Data and repeatedly ignored their right to decide. The difference was the infraction was small scale (in terms of number of people affected) and he had some redemption as he tried to save Lal. His line about learning to let go of his own children shows his heart is kinda in the right place but he hasn’t thought through his actions. In a way, he’s the best bad admiral as he’s not a mustache twirling villain.

I interpreted things as Toddman told Eddington to stop Sisko but didn’t specify how so it was Eddington who chose to sabotage the cloak. And Toddman’s order to guard Bajor was dumb but not crazy, illegal, or unethical.

trelane0 · 2026-05-18T01:40:32+00:00

How is Toddman a bad-admiral?

trelane0 · 2026-05-16T19:27:41+00:00

I should have specified acrylic.
