I build models of EVERYTHING !
Cars, trucks, planes, ships, trains, buildings, figures, scenery, you name it.
But for me, it's all about the history of the subject. I can hold history in my hand.
( plus, ... it's just cool ...😎 )
I drive trucks for a living.
It's amazing to me how many people will pass me on a downhill... and then slow down force me to hit the brakes. Your tempting fate if you expect a fully loaded 75,000 pound cement truck to stop before it kills your kids in the backseat.
I have also been cut off by cops ( of all people) turning right from the left lane right in front of me.
I no longer bother trying to stop, I couldn't if I wanted to.
Place your bets, place your bets, and their off and running, lettuce is ahead, rubber band is in the stretch, tomato is trying to ketchup, and mother-in-law is nagging behind !
Do you have any model T ,or model A body's? Or any model T wooden spoked wheels/ tires ?
I have a 65 Chevell wagon body. It's been painted ( badly with a brush ) but it's in good shape .
Not sure how old it is, but it's molded in Yellow plastic.
My approach to building , ...?
I place a kit on my bench, then try to sneak up on it.
Oh, ... you mean do I have a plan.... oh, ok.
No, not really.
I just let the kit tell me what it wants to be, and try to do its bidding.
...... sometimes I even succeed.
Handling, and processing are just buzz words to blind you to the fact that companies are charging you extra for touching your stuff.
