It is an art, for sure. You can practice on all sorts of stuff, though.
I’ve got a few older models I think I’ll practice on.

Are you familiar with Micromark?
No. But I’ll check it out.

LOL. Believe it or not this is an issue on Facebook in some of the model groups. Every so often someone reports a post or the Facebook police notice it, delete it, and send a warning. Some manufacturers have even stopped including swastika decals. I’m a stickler for historic accuracy though so I have a sheet of aftermarket decals for kits that don’t come with them.

Nice work Darth ;)
I’m currently finishing up a Tamiya 1/12 Williams FW14B, and have a 1/12 Ducati on deck, along with a Master Grade Gundam RX-78-2. Four or so projects in the pipeline.

They have a huge selection of all sorts of hobby tools and supplies. You can look at their website or request a catalog. They will send catalogs if you order something. They are good because they have catalog-exclusive sales. They have everything you need for anything small-scale hobby related.

Very nice work, Mr Thompson.

Where do you get the kits??
Posted on 1/10/21 at 8:38 pm to Darth_Vader

I’m between replying to this thread I’ve been checking them out. Looks really good. Thanks for the heads up.

There is a scale model show every year in Huntsville that alot of military model builders go to. They have a show/judged competition. Some of the dioramas they build are amazing. There used to be a good one in the Vestavia Hills area, too, but it didn't happen for a year or two and I don't know if it ever came back.

I prefer to buy them locally at places like The Model Box, Homewood Toy & Hobby, and Oak Mountian Hobby. I also order some from Amazon or other online hobby sites that can’t find locally.

No problem. They're good. I even have some of their actual tools. I needed a smaller arbor press, and ended up buying theirs. Good customer service and shipping times, too. Though, I haven't bought much from them in "Covid Times".

I wish they’d start the one up on Vestavia again. I don’t think any of my work is worthy or on the same level of what some guys do. But I enjoy doing it.

If you ever get up to Huntsville check out RC Hobbies. They have alot of military kits.
