The Czech Model kits can be challenging, but you can get a spectacular result with some patience.

Never tried the Humbrol acrylic but Tamiya is my go-to for airbrushing. Never used it for brush painting.

Thanks JC!

Interesting. Thanks for the information!

You’re making me blush!

Thanks Puck. I used the old hairspray method.

Thank you Stef.

Thank you Paul.

After my one bottle of 12197 by Model Master is gone I’ll probably just avoid schemes using this color.

A real one nearby that is missing a few parts along with my favorite sign of all time:

You’re never going to finish all those kits. #scalemodels

Thank you Brian!

Is that the ESCI MiG-27 Flogger-D?? That brings back some memories.

I’m currently in the midst of an F-16 triple build. If by some miracle I’m able to finish this month I’d be happy to join in. I have a Hasegawa Tony staring at me from the stash…

Because it needed to be done!

Minicraft’s 1:144 Boeing 377 in United Airlines livery. I built this years ago for one of my local club members. #histscalemodels

These cabinets were built into the wall of this room when I purchased the house.

I’m there as well. I have space for 3 more builds in my current cabinets.

Even the Paragon bits! Excellent!

Same here with the old Buccaneer. I have the big Flightpath set and was a bit overwhelmed back then. I should get back to it…

A new tool Jag is a good thing, even though I already have a Buster Gonad from years ago, I’d like to make a second. I like the COD Gannet too…

Feel free to say “it’s not as bad as this guy”. There’s one member in the local club that has an enormous collection that fills an entire garage meant for a tractor trailer, and I use his to show the wife that mine isn’t that bad 😂

I have had building slumps before and moved to other kits and later when I return I often can’t remember why I stopped in the first place. I did stop building for competitions and this greatly improved my joy overall.

My favorite response to the ban:

My only problem is time. #scalemodels

Excellent!

Thank you!
