Recommended Posts

Year 2 of my return to modeling. Every build was another step along the way. Thanx to everyone on the MCM board for lookin’, for the great builds, the stimulating discussion, the super tips and information, and the encouragement and camaraderie. And all the best to you and yours this holiday season!

Thanx for all the kind words everyone. :P:lol: I especially appreciate the fact that your favorites range over such a variety of styles. So far I'm building in a solidly Old School vein but it's still surprising what a varied selection of subjects and types of builds can be gotten out of this seemingly narrow area. Maybe for 2010 I can move into more contemporary themes! But I gotta have my hot rods and diggers....
