Guys, please be careful as to what questions you ask of Chris in open forum. By all means ask his advice, it will be top drawer, but please try not to ask questions that will lead him to offer products or services on the public board. Please be good enough to ask these by PM.
Although we all know Chris sprays shells, he cannot be seen in public (well on here at least) to be offering this service, these are the house rules and to be fair to the other traders on here, must be applied fairly to all sections.
I hope you all understand this difficult position...
Thanks
Marcus

thanks marcus. it does leave me in a difficult position when people ask things like this... by all means, pm or e-mail Ginga related topics, but i will try and remain 100% impartial in the forum.
i've been fortunate enough to be offered this post, and intend to fulfil it by abiding by the rules.
please make things simple for me!!
in the future, any posts which may lead into biased responses WILL be deleted and answered by PM.
Thanks.

Chris, I have one question for you, Why is it that when anybody mentions me(Kolors by Kropy) or my service you delete the post? Are you afraid of a little competition?
Thanks,
Dale "Kropy" Kropaczewski

I can't speak for Chris, but I can tell you why I would edit or delete posts similar to your last.
Links to commercial wedsites are not allowed.

It's better, but repeated unnecessary name dropping is also not allowed.
7: Advertising: This can be a particularly problematic one and does rely on the sensibility of the posters and the stance taken by the local moderator. That said, this forum is provided, at great expense, free of charge to you all and the owner does not have to provide free advertising as well! This is a UK based forum, provided primarily for UK members and as such we would prefer that you support the UK model shops at all times. The general rule is that while the inclusion of the name of a model related company is acceptable, be it a shop, dealer, distributor or importer, the name is all that will be allowed. This will only be tolerated where it is a genuine attempt to assist or guide someone. You should refrain from supplying any contact info, address, or web site info, you can of course send this information if you feel inclined to, by the PM system - do not post it in the public forums! - You MAY NOT however make a post like "Please PM me for details of where to buy etc." If the person is interested enough they will do their own research following your pointer.
However any post containing blatant and/or repeated advertising or just trying to be 'smart' will result in that post being 'corrected' accordingly, as will any person who appears to be repeatedly posting company names.
I have underlined the pertinent part.

Hi Dale, Sorry to dissapoint, but i've been neglecting my forum duties of late, and i've not deleted/edited/mooved a post in about 4 months.... a similar amount of time since i've been able to paint commercially.... :rolleyes:
Unfortunatly, a full time job and, more fortunatly a wedding (on sat just passed...) i've been a bit behind the time, and not even looked at a computer. I'm afraid it has been another mod who has been responsible for the editing etc etc....
However, my position would have been the same, advertising is not allowed, on the forums, and i've also had posts removed, where i should have known better!!
However, your website adress is on your profile, and people can acess through that, i've had a look myself, and would reccomend that other people do to, some of your work looks fantastic.
I for one am glad you are on the forum, it's another pro painter who people can bounce ideas off, and encourage making our sport a more colourfull and better presented place!

its good to see different ideas for shells and when i get myself a digicam i'll let you guys see some nutty designs. i prefer to work with paintbrush and go freehand rather than an airbrush. but then i always have to be different.
current fave is the charger on my lst, black with flames and the poster for freddy vs jason on the roof. although the gt40 with pennywise the clown was cool. anyone spotting the link here.
