Post by: prallplatte on October 24, 2014, 05:18:08 PM: Do not be surprised if its here hopping in the near future, i have at this time 7 - in words: seven - projects going.

Anyway:

I need drivers!

Therefore i could recruit new prospects in some clubs for my steam-project. Here they are still relaxing:

But the patches are almost done:

Off course they need vehicles. One of them I show you here in Genesis, and if that sounds familiar: right, here its going surgically:

Initiating the entry on Wall Street of my AG iG at the end of the year, my 50-member agitprop department has been working for days in the red zone.

First result:

My cars need more eye-catching. Based on the Girls on the bombers in the last century EVA04 was committed. Here are the first shots from the set. Do you want more?

Post by: prallplatte on January 22, 2015, 06:52:01 PM: Varzi, my brave engineer, is working again. He told me something about "way out of the desaster" or something like this, i dont remember exactly. The sheltered workshop looks alike:

After performing my daily silly walk, next coup attempt:

Wolves in Germany? Pfff, nothing against tiger attacks in da house. Here is a rare snapshot immediately above.
Varzi was so proud that the central unit of the machine was finally finished. Now the reconstruction begins, meanwhile, Varzi has come to the intensive care. Get Well Soon!

Post by: prallplatte on February 04, 2015, 01:10:16 PM: Thank you! I have also attached two impressions of the first outdoor use: the machine is frost-proof. Which I can not tell from my steam engines.

Soon the first function test will begin - as soon as I have found the escaped Varzi and the stolen crystal knob.

I've looked up more of your work on youtube. It makes me laugh and smile. I'm particularly smitten by the steam tanks.

DO MORE!

Yup, a great marketing design feature, male owners will always lose the first one and then have to buy another one to cover up their stupidity. BOGAFTSP (Buy-one-get-another-one-for-the-same-price).

Utterly brilliant. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Are they going on sale sometime soon?

Post by: prallplatte on February 13, 2015, 09:39:45 AM: Thank you very much! But after the terrible loss of my time machine it came to a dispute.

I was outvoted again. The boys want time-travelling, finito.

(http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o115/voltax1/CIMG6633_zps0e70de07.jpg)

I just buy a new time machine. In the catalog there is also a two-seater. At the outrageous prices only slightly more expensive.

Maybe I could use this to search machine no. 1?
Title: Re: Steam Electro Hybrid
Post by: dsquire on February 13, 2015, 11:41:46 AM: Kurt

I think the larger time travelling machine #2 would help in the search and recovery of time travelling machine #1. It would also help to boost the moral of your faithfull ~~boys~~ men. Keep up the good work Kurt. :D :)

Post by: vtsteam on February 15, 2015, 11:34:24 AM: I was shocked to find the following construction in my daughter's room this morning. Photographed here exactly as it appeared. She called it her "Cat Mania", and said the silvery object in the front was her "most valuable bead".

However, I am noticing an obfuscated asynchronicity in this device. I think she's covering for somebody.....

Two-seater series "Blue Time", with leather seat covers in engine color, cup holders, audio system, extra large copper plate and that natural lowered. Who can afford this?

Here, meanwhile, run the travel preparations in full swing. Since no one knows how long the search takes after the time machine, take care of my boys before: used, but noble and good, the steamer trunk!

And even more precious is the sound system. The first three pilot plants arrived.Without manual, grmpfh!

It may be reproduced in any medium and freely copied and distributed. It may be displayed in public places and enacted for profit by amateur or professional drama groups. Electronic broadcasting and hardcopy distribution is permitted in any form.

Sound system manual text:
