Here is a way to make grab handles. I bought a sheet of evergreen 2037 - Freight Car Siding .020" HO which comes with grooves. I then glued the sheet to some backing for rigidity. The picture shows the result. It does work but, it would be easier if the grooves were a little deeper. I will make...

This is the first figure I have completed. I have played with figures, but never completed one. This looks like a first figure, but for one thing. I got the face. The face is not bad. I have painted a 1/35 face and it's not to bad. Pop quiz. What college major has the highest drop out rate...

Here is my DAK Panzer I. You noticed I didn’t say finished. I may get back to it.This was a real learning experience. First hair spray technique and first track link. The hair spray technique is good for larger areas. I have more control using a sponge. The assembly of the tracks went quickly...

I am looking for a good acrylic putty. I have tried squadron, modeling paste and always come back to Tamiya. Tamiya is not bad but it dries to quick and using nail polish remover also removes the tape I put on both sides of the seam. I see that some people use automotive putty. Thanks in advance.

I have glue left from mask. The best I have come up with is Bestine (a solvent/thinner). This does loosen it, but just pushes it around. I have tried tooth pick, q-tip, etc. I just can't get the residue to stick to anything to remove it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I was really looking forward to this: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/107759-miniart-35075-totenkopf-division and now it is not on the Miniart web page. How often does this happen? I don't think Miniart is going to release it.

Just got my Meng Tiger II (without interior) today and the time line is reasonable. I think that there should be some further considerations for all campaigns though. These are my ideas: 1) 60 or older; bonus time to completion 2) Any Dragon kit finished with all the parts where they should be...

This is my first model in 25-30 years. Just getting back into it. Pictures are not good. Constructive criticism needed.

When I click on the FAQ Link I get a 404 error.

Before I try Micro set I would like to get some feed back. According to what I have read, you can add Micro set to continue working with the decal should it begin to set up. Is this true? How much working time do I have? I need something to really stick the decals on. Are there other products...

I am trying to put together the dragon 250 magic tracks and have really had enough. Were the 250 and 251 tracks the same? AFV club sells the 251 in rubber band. Thanks in advance.

I have 2 of the 1/72 EagleCals 135 decals JG 54, JG 53 and JG 3. I would trade for anything not 1/72 WWII axis.
