very cool i was big into trains and layouts back in england.moved too much to set up a large layout.would love to do the same.as for car model kits,one has to paint and assembly,but i did collect since i was a teenager so i literally had hundreds,i used to super detail them with cloth interiors,engine wiring etc and use parts from different kits like bigger/different wheels/engines to build accurate 60s drag race car replicas and such.still do that today,only not as much as i would like to..now a kit takes a while as i use auto paint and scratch build some parts from styrene stock..most hobby shops still stock them and there has been a big resurgence in the last 10 years or so,photo etched metal parts etc.mostly adult builders that started out as kids.cool hobby .

thank you Matt..our local pier burned down last night adding creosote smoke to the already thick forest fire smoke coming up the west coast..i wish it were fog..
Impressive. I used to enjoy model car building but I never did anything so intricate. Just built them from stock kits. A little paint and decals is as detailed as I ever got.
very cool.simple is good and most kits build up into cool models from the start.no question.i just do my own thing.as a builder of real hot rods and a mechanic i was inclined to go further with them..
Yours look to be of exceptional build quality. I'd love to see a few more detailed pictures. I have a few cars from my Grandfathers collection. Most were prebuilt that I have of his including a few Franklin Mint models. I think I have a few he built though. Unfortunately they are stored away at the moment for lack of a good place in my current house to display them. I look forward to getting an area to display them properly and maybe add a few to that collection.
very cool.i have been building kits since my early teens and am now 52,collecting as well.most of mine i built then rebuilt then scrapped for different ideas.i have sold hundreds off in the last 5 years and kept favorites to build.mostly 30s to 60s fords.i presently have builder's block and haven't done much lately..will resume shortly i hope.You are? i am Gary.would love to call you by your prefered name.
Tue 15th Sept. Stirling Syn. 26mm Stirling Baker Street Occams-Hiam Commander / Dot 2 FeatherPro [ 2 ] Alcolado Glacial A/S Splash I am finding it hard to put this Razor down as it so good, and I should really revert to my Razor rotation. Second Shave with The Feather blade was good, but think the Schick Proline is a bit more forgiving.

Tabac Tuesday's Shave Cold Water Rinse Tabac Shave Soap Jayaruh #18 Gem Micromatic Flying Wing Personna GEM SS PTFE CWR Tabac ASB Today is Day 15 of SEptember. Up for the challenge today is my Gem Micromatic Flying Wing. The Tabac Shave Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #18 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem Micromatic Flying Wing razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

My name is Greg. Nice to officially make your cyber-acquaintance. Have you ever done a Salt Flat racer inspired model?
