This is a little 1:87 scratch build I’ve been slowly working on, it’s based off a sketch of mine, can’t find the notebook the sketch is in. The windows and doors are Tichy Train and the basswood lap siding is from Northeastern Scale Lumber. The purple paint is cheap craft paint over...

This build came out great, nice job on the weathering.

My day is going well … I just realized how long it’s been since I’ve been out here … wow! Things went a bit sideways so the building kinda sputtered out … but I’m getting back at it. Happy to spring here in NW Ohio Erik

Welcome back to the hobby. I have to admit I’ve stepped away for a bit and I’m also slowly creeping back. That build came out really nice, I’ve thought about trying planes but just haven’t taken the plunge. Erik

I've all but given up on Facebook and Instagram, I won't rant on about those here, but I am happy this place is still around :) . Anyways, because I'm not using FB and IG I'm finding that I'm not holding my phone so much, which is good. I'm also reading a lot more, which is really good, and I'm...

Thank you sir!

YouTube makes everything look easy! I just posted my thoughts on using Elmer's washable glue in the paint, weathering, and decal section. That might be another option for ya. But again, I can't stress enough, practice practice practice!

I've used 99% isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush to remove Vallejo paint. I just dabbed some on the model with the toothbrush then started scrubbing, that was on a 1:35 Sherman build, took it all off. It's a little slow going though. As you do this some clumps of paint may get left behind...

Thank you! It's a nice kit for being such an affordable price point.

Can’t have dinky doughnuts, doughnuts must be big!

Thank you.

What’s everyone reading these days? I just finished The Rising Tide, great novel on WW2 focusing on the conflicts and battles in Africa. And I’m now half way thru the Drifter comic series. It’s a 4 volume set, fantastic artwork in this one.

Looking great!

If we’re talking little spaces this is my work space. All the tools and paints are in bins under the table top. When I’m painting art the easel goes more in the center of the room. There is a doorway immediately to the left that goes into the living room so everything has to be kept tidy...
