movies to model by

i live alone, so i use the telly as background noise to almost everything. dish just sent me a dvr for free so i'm in hog heaven.

I have the TV on when I model but only if it's something I am interested in slightly. If it's a show I like, I can't concentrate on my modeling. Same with movies, that's why I never model with one on. Eric There is never enough time to do all the nothing you want. Calvin and Hobbs 1990

News junkie. That and cop shows. History shows. Wings channel.

This may all change when I get the VCR set up in the office. I have about forty aircraft videos that may just get worn out.

I like it right now in the summer (in NZ) because then I can model while watching cricket. The two just seem to work together.

Usually 50s sci-fi or a war movie.The Thing, Them and Body Snatchers are favorites along with Tora Tora Tora and They Were Expendable. There's a real sleeper called The Flying Saucer I use as background while doing some tedious. Saturday morning I used to work to Mystery Science theater.

I just tune to the Sci Fi channel. They always have something on that makes for great muzak!

putney swope is good, and killer klowns from outer space. (the dickies soundtrack rules.)

I must have been the last one to know that The Blue Max is out on DVD. "It's a cruel world, Stachel . . . "

That'll be it!! :)

Thanks to Comcast, they just put the Sci-fi channel on my cable system up to digital cable. Screw em, I'm not going to pay em just to watch

1 channel on their new line up.

50's SF is always good... especially the cheap (>$9) DVDs with 3 or 4 movies on them. All but the worst movies are fun to build to.

I built a Tamiya T-72 tank while watching the MST3K episode of "Lost Continent".

You God-Damnned poor bastard, how the hell do you model with the flying bats attacking you?

Here, take some ether.

Killer Klowns was filmed in the hometown here. (Capitola, CA., down in the village at the beach). Cool movie.

What the hell ARE these goddamn animals? I need to switch to acrylics! There is nothing more pathetic than to see someone in the throes of a Xylene binge.
