Haha. what were you cleaning them with?
I’ve never really cleaned the parts prior to assembly, just a wipe down with watered down isopropyl alcohol before priming/ painting.
This is incredible. I love dioramas that tell a story and make you think. I’ve yet to do a diorama myself (still trying get the basics down) but I can imagine getting pretty immersed in such a build…on a deeper level than usual. Nice work.
If it’s anything like their 1:48 kit, it’ll be an absolute treat to build. I had all but glued the canopy to a finished kit (one of my best up to that point) and fumbled it walking down the basement stairs. It shattered into it’s original state. Found all but two pieces and now it’s on a...
Wandered into Michaels with my wife. Certainly didn’t expect to pick up any kits, but it looks like I’m working on….

I experimented with hairspray chipping which I now prefer over other the chipping fluids I’ve tried, in case anyone is wondering about what...
Oh man you’re in great company. I wouldn’t list anything on here if I was worried about being judged. I’m a hack in training, but would’ve thrown in the towel a long time ago if it weren’t for folks in this forum giving some encouragement and advice. No Olympics here…just a shared desire to...
Haven't posted in a while, but have been busy working on this Tamiya Pony which was going spectacularly until an attempt to add some exhaust staining turned into what appeared to be a full on engine fire.
Fortunately someone gave me the same exact Tamiya P-51 for my birthday so the extra...
