Terry Love Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Hello, I use to post here several years ago so some of you my remember me but the reason I am posting now is I purchased a 1/16 Lindberg Stutz off Ebay several months back. There were a few things already done that indicated the builder was going to be doing a lot of detail to the model. So I thought I would try to find out who the builder was and what their style of building was. I contact the seller who was the daughter and found out that the builder was Harry Pristovnik. I'm sure I have seen some of his work over the years but I just can't remember. Amy, his daughter told me he was on this board so I thought maybe some of you could lead me in a direction to see some of his work to get an idea of what he did. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Terry Love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree. Some of his work bordered on the unbelievable. You had to look hard to see that it was a model. If there's such a credential, I would say he was a Master Modeler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miatatom Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Don't put pressure on yourself. Just be happy knowing you've got a small piece of his excellence. Your appreciation would be his satisfaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbowser Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I've been lucky enough to obtain one of his models from Amy as well. No pressure, its yours now - do what you want. Harry was always trying to help the rest of us do better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
