  1. Will do, I spent a couple hours looking thru RB motion and bought a bunch of odds and ends to detail out a Tamiya 1/12 935 as well as a Nunu 1/24 935 k3, my wife would go crazy if she knew how much I spend on my little hobbies as she calls them. About to finish out a Tamiya 1/24 956 but the body paint didn't turn out like I wanted and the PE kit was pretty hard to use as well, so it's my practice and learn kit for now. I'll order another kit or body and re build later. I really want one of the MFH 1/12 scale kits but $600 to $1,000 for a kit is a lot to swing but wow they look beautiful Many thanks Casey
  2. Thanks Casey, They have pretty much everything I'm looking for and more. Plus they are in the states and wont take weeks to get and appear to be even better detail than the resin parts
  3. Saw a you tube video of a 1/12 scale Porsche 934 build and there were some fittings he added along with nuts and bolts to detail the kit out even further. I finally found them from Top Studio but cant seem to find them in the U.S. Does anyone know where to source these kind of detail parts. So far it looks like Top Studio is the only place. Have some of the Detail Master hoses and braided line but they dont seem to have the AN style fittings
  4. Welcome Joey, I just joined myself as well. Also just moved from Al to Montana in April, didn't live to far from you and worked really near to Leeds at the Porsche dealer in Irondale.
  5. Like many of you I started as a pre-teen building pretty much any model I could get my hands on, hacking kits together and adding stuff like brake lines and whatever else I could using whatever I could get my hands on that looked the part. As I got older and I got into military aircraft and some cars. When I got working with Porsche North America I started pretty much focusing on that particular line of cars and mostly their race cars as I've built a few in real life. 1/24 stuff is getting hard for me to detail out and my hands don't have that kind of dexterity any longer but I've been trying and some of the problems I have are down to tools and tricks to make some of that really small photo etch stuff. Hi to Joey from Leeds Al, I moved from Alabama to Montana in April where I worked at the Porsche dealer just outside of Leeds. My latest project is a Tamiya 956 with the engine detail and a 1/12 Tamiya 935 that I'm desperately looking for a photo etch kit for as the only one I can find is in Belgium and claimed shipping is 3-10 weeks. I'm thinking it might be better to buy one of the new 935 kits that comes with the PE and put the other away as its an original release model that I got really cheap and I'm seeing the originals listed for crazy money.
