Show Us Your Hobby Pics

[warbirdlover]

I make "cyber" aircraft that work in Microsoft's Flight Simulator FS9 and FSX. These PC flight simulators only come with so many planes. I'm a WWII Warbird NUT (father-in-law flew P-38's in WWII Pacific Theatre) and got into this years ago. I've made probably 50 or more planes but joined a couple other guys (painter on isle of Crete, Greece and other designer in Arizona) to create a company that sells "payware" add-ons for the games. Here's some links and pics. Now tell me your hobbies with pics...

Here is one our Arizona buddy is working on...

Here's a link to where we sell them...

simMarket: WARBIRDS DT - F6F HELLCAT

Check out the picture section for the cockpit view. All the levers and buttons work in the cockpit and are mouse "clickable"....

And our team website...

And my website dedicated to my father-in-law. I put a whole lot of work into this...

My hobby is as seen in my most recent thread in the Members Section. To put it in one word...boobies.

Other than that, motorcycle racing, which I won't be able to get to those pics until this weekend...

Oh, and I read...a lot.

I think I have posted before that I work on and drag race my GTO as a hobby. A still picture is in the Avatar.

Here is a pic of me lining up to go against one of the original "old school" GTOs

This is how it looked at the finish. New tech wins.

A short video is at this link. This is me against a supercharged 04 GTO. I was asleep at the starting line; but I managed to pull it out on the top end.

Here's a little something I like to putz around with after a long day of work. I'm not very good yet, but it's still fun to learn.

Thanks WildCat. I wish I could afford a back up. Im actually trying to get rid of a mountain bike right now. Yup that bike is probably worth more than the car I drive. hahaha

Your guess probably only covers the frameset... (I'm actually not kidding)

West Coast - Holy crap that's an awesome looking bike!

Nice work WBL. Very nice.

twogreen, a 12.22 is pretty damned fast. What a sweet little sleeper.

Fitzgerald - here's two of my playthings. Been playing about a year now. I try to play every day, so I starting to get "un-retarded".

Unfortunately, my software only makes planes for M$ Flightsimulators and Combat Flight simulators (certain game "engines"). And it takes 1-3 hours a night for almost a year to make a plane like the Hellcat!! :laugh:<!-- google_ad_section_end -->

I've posted several of my WW projects in other threads, the latest being the garden shed and the masters flag.

Love those, man. My dream guitar is a PRS Custom 24 with the birds in flight inlay. But there are so many other things I could do with $3K.

What sort of amp do you use?
