DRG Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 For the past week or so I have been admiring the work that I have witnessed in this forum. I was going to start building a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner and detailing it as I have seen on other models. Common sense tells me that perhaps I should just paint and build a couple of models and then start detailing in stages. For instance wiring the engine compartment, then move on to brake lines, gas lines and so forth. The quality of craftmanship that I am seeing simply boggles my mind right now. If I hope to ever get to your level it must be through steps taken one at a time.
