If you have a Hobby Lobby near you go to their web site and print out the 40% off coupon they almost always have. I did and got a 28.00 discount on the kit.

Sounds like you may be building a Bettie Page special.

Is the tube a little above the bottom of bottle ? I had some tube once that was too long and hit the bottom of the bottle so it could not be sucked up. Will it spray thinner or water ? if it does then it's a paint problem.

Nice ! Those colors look good together.

Could catch on that hose. I didn't notice that but the man is sure correct.

Very sharp !

Trim looks good. Did you mask or do it free hand ?

What am I missing here ?

I like it. I too have messed up a window or two in my time.

Very nice. I like the job you did on the vinyl roof.

That is going to be so cool when it's finished. I wish I had the talent to dream up and create something like that.

That is going to be so..................nice. I have used BMF both over and under the clear. Some I hear prefer to clear over the BMF so there is no chance of it letting it go later. I had some old BMF at one time that would not adhear good so I cleared over it and that worked prety good.

Does anyone know if any hobby shops still have model contests in house ? When I was younger most hobby shops I went to had contests every so often. They would also have a "workshop" about once a month. I know that drew in some younger builders at least back in the day.

That is going to be very nice.

I have been a model builder on and off for over 50 years. I have seen it in good times and bad. I felt in was dying several years ago but look at it now. Now is the best time that I can recall. Choices of not only kits but glues, paints not to mention the aftermarket has never been better. I do have my doubts that as us older builders either pass on or get to the point that building becomes difficult the hobby will suffer. I doubt it will ever go away but I do think the decline will begin in the not too distant future. I myself don't know of any kids or young adults building models. They seem to prefer the video games to building. We are all sad about the closing of Slixx which may not have anything to do about a decline in model building but unless someone picks up the slack on decals it will soon be hard to build a lot of the replicas we enjoy building.

That wedge ia awesome !

You gots some skills. Your builds are very nice. Thanks for posting.

Love the Falcon.

That does look like a beautiful model kit. You did a very good job with it.

Love that Pontiac wagon.

Thats a nice looking print.

Doesn't someone make some minature V8 's that really work and that can be put in an R/C car ? I think the name was Connely or something like that.

I missed that. Thanks,

Very, very nice.

Darn it ! I live close by and it slipped my mind. Must have been a senior moment.
