    Art of Modelling iOS app?

    Does anyone happen to use the iOS "Art of Modelling" app? And if so, do you have copies of Issue 37 and 38? I know the app seems to be dead, but I'm working on a way to 'archive' previous digital issues. :)

    So there's this... ...which I'm hoping will turn into this... ...except 10 years after Return of the Jedi. Essentially a forgotten ruin.

    SHAKE DAT PAINT (but not too much!)

    So this happened... I added a ball bearing to a bunch of my AK, Tamiya and Alclad bottles for mixing, and I'm now reconsidering the Alclad bottles! A little too much for that size I think and boy it made a mess. Amazingly I managed to save the nice jeans I was wearing, as I immediately...
