I just had to add one thing…a “mule kit” that’s freaking brilliant. Im still pretty new in the hobby, and I’ve built some kits that frustrated me or I hit a mental block on, or a still sealed kit that I wonder why i bought it in the first place…that’s probably the most valuable advice I’ve ever...

Yes, you are correct. It’s a 1/48. That is awesomely sound advice and exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you, blacksheep!

Or will that look horrible?

Okay. I’m building a 1:35 jet right now, it’s my first plane. Can I use a fine-tip Sharpie black, to add depth, which will then get a light Navy Grey coat? Is that okay to pre-shade?

This a very old thread, I have a question in this stage of painting. Is this the proper venue for a pre-shading question? The thread is 15 years old at this point.

I’m fully paused on this build…I needed a break. I’ve been working on something different, and I’ll post a new thread for that when I’m ready to. I fell in a trap where I felt like I had to be working on something, completely forgetting that modeling is a hobby, and meant to be enjoyed when...

Any admin, @Pantherman, or anyone. Can we please close this thread? Not to hide or misrepresent any exchanges, but just to get back to normal modeling subjects? I feel like this thread could devolve. I will post to a new thread when I can for the sake of our combined hobby. Just, this...

Urumomo, that issue has been addressed and put to bed

I agree

Wow, this got long. I don’t have much to update on. It was a busy week and I got hammered at work. I like to look for builds done by other modelers on projects I’m close to starting, with this one I am coming up dry. Apparently not a hugely popular kit given it’s aged subject matter, the SaturnV...

Ok. Thank you. I’m sorry that I misread your post. Not that this is an excuse, but I’ve been torn to shreds on other sites for ridiculous reasons, just bring up Hobby Lobby once and people start calling you racist and rooting for your demise. Such instances happen on the internet everyday...

Then why isn’t he saying this? He should say so, not someone else.

If this isn’t addressed by admin…I take back my praise for this site. I really hoped this wasn’t like Reddit…but it’s just the same old bully-bullshit that holds back potential hobbyists. I’ll keep building models, but with this nonsense on this site, I won’t be bullied anymore. I honestly...

Actually, I’m out. I’m better than to get into an online argument with a moron. Enjoy your modeling everyone. I’m officially turned off to the hobby.

Where does that number come from? I seriously just joined here maybe a week ago. I have two threads, this one, and one where I said hello. Please provide some evidence. I’ve never been here before a few days ago, and now I might not ever come back. Bye scalemodeladdict.com. I won’t participate...

Thanks for your advice and patience for beginner level questions, Pantherman!

So, I guess my question is in the area of how to switch colors. Like if I’ve just used “Hull Red” and want to apply “Warship Grey”, these are incompatible colors. Can I just do a quick flush with some thinner, or do I need to do a full breakdown cleaning? For reference, I have one Master...

Will do. My trepidation towards my airbrush is that I want to be better versed in how to clean it, over how to use it. If it isn’t clean, its usefulness quickly diminishes. Kind of a “chicken-and-egg” argument. But, you’ll never learn to swim if you don’t get in the water. Obviously, I’ve way...

Please forgive the useless screenshot at the bottom. I thought I deleted that, but I was wrong.

I picked up this kit several months ago while it was on Clearance for a great price at $8 US. I’ve had an airbrush for a while, and can’t explain why I haven’t even attempted to use it. So, I’m thinking about my next project as a lesson in airbrushing and I was wondering if this would be a good...
