Re: Proud Dad

Your daughter is a fantastic modeler, Ian --- a chip of the ole block! Glad I don't have ta compete with her at the shows, as with her skills, she'd whip my 50 year old butt! Keep up the good work, Tatijana!! And you, too, Ian! Not easy ta keep a kid away from all the cool electronics these days (as...

Is there such a thing as a "perfect" kit?

Heya, Folks, Have seen various comments on the web about issues with the as-yet-unreleased Tamiya S-35 Somua kit...a subject many have been waiting for since the old Heller (wasn't that a movie...?) release many moons ago. Time and time again, the comments about inaccuracies usually end up outnumber...

Re: Anyone know of a printable masking medium?

Wow, thanks for all the advice, guys!!! Man, that computer-cutter gizmo sounds pretty cool!!! Definitely a hefty price tag though and out of my budget range for a while. Going to have to keep this in mind for the future. Dave, what have you used as the actual masking materiel when you've used this c...

Re: D'oh!

Been there, done that, Gary, even after treating the thing like the Hope Diamond! I now try to keep a couple of spare needles around...

Better than dropping your airbrush, which I have also done! :oops:

Hang in there!

Anyone know of a printable masking medium?

Heya Folks, I'm looking to create masks for a dazzle pattern on a sci-fi APC... Having spent about two months last year masking and painting a digital camo pattern on a tank last year, I'm looking to make this project a little easier by creating the pattern on the computer and then printing it out o...

Re: So....what kits do we still need?

Thanks, Steve!!! Along those lines, I think the only modeler I know with enough time to finish all the kits in the stash is my nine year old son!!! :lol: And of course, he's not nearly as into the hobby as the Old Man! Glad I didn't have the lure of electonics --- but bear in mind, there was "electr...

Re: Greetings from L.A.!

Heya, Mark, Yes, indeed! That would be the Masterpiece Models ASPB kit, which is great! It's a lot of work, for sure, but truly worth it --- I've got mine about 95% done and plan on posting pix here as soon as it is 100% done --- wanting it completely finished (and ready for a dio) is an impetus for...

Re: So....what kits do we still need?

Heya, Oliver, I can't argue with that... I know that I've modified my purchasing habits radically over the years --- I rarely buy kits unless the subject matter is something that I have utterly wanted for years. Cool thing is, many of my favorite subjects have been kitted over the years (T28, M3 75m...

Re: Greetings from L.A.!

Let's face it, Mark --- it ain't really a "Party" until you show up! ;) Outside from the outrageous taxes, it is a grand time ta be livin' on the warm West Coast, given the horrific weather the rest of the country is getting pummeled with! Blech... Been there, done that for many years and my heart g...
