Wolf Creek RC Scale Park

Were you a fan of the HBO series 'True Blood'? You could model a mini scene somewhere in the park.

Nice review on iggy & seb model junkyard. What kind of modeling do you do otherwise? It's always cool to see another scale modeler get some rep on a good site

I'll have to admit, I don't watch TV at all. Not enough time... LOL, people always tell me it looks like I have too much time on my hands, but just the opposite, I just spend what little I have on this. but it sounds like it has potential for a miniature nightmare movie.

Thanks. Yea, I was real pleased to get recognition on modeljunkyard. Those two make some incredible scratch built stuff & then when you consider most of it is 1:25... blows me away.

I did a lot of 1:25 cars & 135 tamiya military as a kid. As of late, I've been into this, wood boats, still like plastic kits, just got a 1:8 Revell Mummy in time for Holloween which prompted me to think "I could put him out in the rock garden" which has led to a scale castle build.... and the list goes on. Pinewood derby with the kids, slot cars, I don't think I ever grew up.

Cool! post it up to the course sticky. I've always wanted to do an indoor micro Moab themed layout with foam. Too many ideas though & not enough time and money. I put a 17' x 8' Carrera digital 132 slot car layout in my basement so thats my indoor project for now.

I had an idea for a detail for the off road course. How about an abandoned rusty hull of a vehicle that didn't survive the trek?

Had a little GTG last weekend. Sellenk came & played. We had a few mechanical failures so it was good that he brought a wrecker. I think he had to tow a few rigs out.

Some exceptionaly cool metal work & scratch built, chassis, suspension parts, exo-cage, etc. on his rigs. Nice co-pilots too

Some new Video. My oldest son, Max, 7, driving the TF2 & Gelande. Me on the Honcho & Highlift. My 5 year old son, Miles, making a guest appearance on the last frame. He really does love playing trucks.

[DieselJC]

Thanks! Go for it! I get the most satisfaction from my scratch built original stuff. Small or large. One of my favorites is a toy deer that I cut the head off of & made a mount board with a little brass plack (in the shelter).

Thanks, Bridge is my favorite as well, stay tuned, I'm working on a jungle outpost to go with the bridge, should be done by next spring season.

Thanks, Hope to keep making it better. Season is almost over & I'll bring the bridge, etc. in for the winter.

Hopefully I'll have one more series of pics. I have a friend finishing up a camper (that needs a campground, right??) and some Holloween themed stuff I'm working on.

Happy Halloween!

[gabehunt]

decorations look awesome!

[DRW-FJ40]

Thanks, I've got some campground pics with the tear drop trailer will post up soon.

Hopefully your incredible off road park didn't get damaged from the storm.
