BRZN Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Ok. I was fooled. Twice. Thought it was Photo Shopped. Now find out it's a model. I rescind my "slick paint" post ! Unless you coated it... Knowing BRZN, he probably did coat it! Paint is slick with no ceramic coatings, two coats of Patriot with a base layer of Brilliant Glaze, a second layer of Brilliant Glaze is sandwiched between the layers of Patriot, and one final layer of Brilliant Glaze as a top coat. That's on the real BRZN, the GMP 1:18 scale model in the picture just has some Detail Spray on it. LOL! falcaineer, mc2hill and Firebuff17 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be darned if I get fooled 3 times. BRZN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SumBeach35 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 (edited) Official total is 26.3" and counting at the national weather service station about 15minutes south of my location. I probably had 30"+ in my driveway. I'm 5'7" and I was walking thought snow waist high or higher with the drifting. Angle of the picture is from the landing of my stairs between 1st and 2nd floor. Have another 3-6 inches expected today Edited March 15, 2017 by SumBeach35 TheWolf, ocdrifter, falcaineer and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorsager Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I just got home today after being stuck at work the past two days. We got 21+ inches where I live in Pennsylvania. I was lucky enough to get a parking spot in the parking garage. These cars were not so lucky. falcaineer and TheWolf 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have another 3-6 inches expected today IMG_20170315_092157.jpg Just imagine it's foam from a Foam Canon and you may sleep a little better. Have fun shoveling/snow blowing/digging....... I just got home today after being stuck at work the past two days. We got 21+ inches where I live in Pennsylvania. I was lucky enough to get a parking spot in the parking garage. These cars were not so lucky. 009.jpg I can only imagine how the owners will clean those cars off. <Insert cringe here> Maybe throw an Adam's sticker under their windshield wiper...if you can find it...and your work number. Good Samaritan thing. Keep the pics coming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 We didn't get as much as you eastern PA guys did, only about 2 inches here from the initial storm. BUT yesterday and today brought lake effect snow and dumped a good 6 inches on top. So while it's still not as much, it's still a pain. At least it was light and fluffy stuff so easy to snow blow, but the drifting has been an issue. Keep optimistic everyone..........Spring comes on Monday and it's all downhill from here. falcaineer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariner Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) I walked out on the barge tonight for the first time in 3 days and immediately ate s**t on a patch of ice. I decided that was enough and crawled back to my warm engine room. Edited March 16, 2017 by Mariner Captain Slow and falcaineer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRZN Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I'd ventured out around 1:30 Tuesday afternoon to start cleaning up. Snow didn't look too bad until I got a shovel into it. The snow started to mix with sleet around 4:00am and smashed down, the probably, 20" we had to what you can see here, then the Hellish wind picked up with gusts up to 40mph. This stuff was back breakingly heavy, and obnoxious where there were drifts to move. I didn't finish until 5:00. I was smart enough to go out for necessary supplies Monday evening; gas for the snow blower and two six packs of beer! mc2hill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Looks like it warmed up enough to melt whatever was left behind by the shovel and snowblower Dave. I've been there and worse. Snow just plain sucks no matter if it's a little bit or a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LT1xL82 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Mine is the one with the silver surrounds on the kidney grilles. Yeah, right. Just another diversionary tactic. We all know this is a picture of two models...of different scales no less! Don't be surprised if I fire up Twitter about 3 AM and expose this bad scheme to defraud. Very bad. Very, very bad. Bad scheme. Yoshi and BRZN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcaineer Posted March 17, 2017 Author Share Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) You sure? Look at the size difference... I was going to ask how you found such a small rear view mirror ornament.

falcaineer Posted March 18, 2017 Author Share Posted March 18, 2017 So, I'm going to let Dave (BRZN) off the hook...for now ... Any more pics of the storm? Or maybe of Dustin (Mariner) falling?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariner Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Or maybe of Dustin (Mariner) falling?! I really wanted to get y'all some pictures but I went out on the barge today and was sweating!
