New Semi from Showcase Miniatures.

Define "comprehensive package."

Something discussed between a potential customer and a vendor in say... oh the last 2-3 years?

That's not a definition of the "comprehensive package" mentioned. I guess what I was hoping for was what the individual (who wrote this) was expecting.

Now if I take the "winking eyeball" personally, I would think that this was a slight dig at me for mentioning a new truck line awhile back. I don't think it was 2-3 years ago, however. If you want a progress report, I will say that three of Showcase Miniature's latest releases were (coincidentally) the exact models I was nearing completion on. That was somewhat of a setback.

Since I don't have the talents of the legendary Walter Vail at my disposal, I have to figure all of this out myself through trial and error. Let's just say that it's been a learning experience. Since I will not put anything out that isn't (at least) close to top notch, development has not been anywhere near rapid.

Yeah, but not everybody can design and print their own.    It is nice to have those in photoetched metal.

And that's is why Husker is my hero due to his ShapeWays shop.  I have more single and twin screws that Liberty City would could have more tractor dealers than car dealers.

I do like the white metal for working with. Shapeways quality keeps me from buying more from that site. It takes me hours of work sanding to get everything to a useable point, and I hate paying more for that level material. I'm hoping they get some better printers soon, because Huskers designs are awesome!
