Fantom Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) Here is my 13 year old nephews first glue build. The AMTs Super Natural Impala . He’s got a couple snap kits under his belt. He did all the paint and 95% of the assembly with my guidance. Good to see young people with interest in models.

lucky 130 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Most excellent duedlet. If he's already that good at 13, think about what he'll be like ay 23. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosferatu Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Nice! I don't think I was doing that good at that age. It's so nice to see a younger generation getting into model building. Keep up the great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papajohn97 Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Great job, especially on the paint. I’ve always found black shiny paint jobs to be the most difficult to pull off, your nephew nailed it! Careful uncle Fantom, a few more of these and he’ll be hooked and your best tools and supplies will start to mysteriously disappear! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
