Hummvee - Age 6

[Sherman 18]

This is my daughters newest project. Academy Hummvee in 1/35 scale. She cuts the parts out and files them, find where the go then I add the glue.

She is really sharp when comes to models. Here she is working away the other night.

Re: Hummvee

That is fantastic! Exactly what I was hoping for, to see kids involved. My son, 7, has his own non-toxic liquid glue to use from Plastruct. No more tube for him.

I will try to take some photos of the T-62 he is working on and start a new thread. Unlike me, he does finish all he starts!

:yipee Glad to see the young'un's taking an interest. :yipee Has the dreaded carpet monster struck yet??

 

[Sherman 18]

Thanks guys.

It is the only way now to keep her out of my stuff

Nope no carpet monsters yet Gene.

I'll be watching this one with great interest. My son is getting his first kit from Santa Clause this year (He really wanted that sharkmouth P40 so I got him one) and I want to see how you handle it. He is also 6

Jeff,

That is sooooo cool Probably she will remember this for the rest of her life. IN 1945, my dad came home from the Pacific, took me to a hobby shop and bought one of those stick and paper jobs, an F4F Wildcat. (No plastic back then!) That was burned into my memory like nothing else and I was only 4. I can remember us sitting at that table like it was yesterday! I thought he was God!

Good for you man!

She did some assembly and painting today

She uses a lot of colors and tells you why with every color.

Too Cute! Of course there's a reason for all the colors.

I can see her take a ride in a colorfull humvee,when she is a grown up young woman.

At age 17;'Dad,do you remember the Humvee when I was 6 years old?Well,I have seen it in town the other day,would be cool if you buy it for me,for my upcoming birthday!'

Greetings,Ron.

And in 10 years they may be relatively cheep, one thing for sure, you wouldn't have to worry about her being in a wreck!
