Hello, Been about a decade or close to it since I have been here. Been away from the hobby for a while and am looking to get back into it. Unfortunately many of my paints and other items are not much good anymore due to long time storage. And to add salt to the wound many of my LFGS's have...

Hi all, This is my first AFV in 1/35 and 4th Model since returning to the hobby in 20 years. Also this is my first time 'basing' or building a little Dio. Please offer any advice or feedback. I know that as I look at the pictures I have found many little things I think I should of done...

When I first came back to Scale Modeling a couple years ago I stumbled across a YouTube video of this crazy guy doing his own rendition of a Star Wars scene, and some how relating it to Scale Modelling. He had a kick ass forum I joined and loved watching his videos. Anyone know what happened to...

Hello, I have a question in regards to what people use to paint "gunmetal", for example particular color choices, brands and application. I am building a Whirbelwind, and am looking to try and get the 3.7cm guns to look as realistic as possible. Any advice on how you achieve a great looking...

Well I have been away for some time from the hobby, and have a couple of shelf queens I need to finish up. But I figured since I have not been able to enjoy the hobby I love doing for so long, I would start off with a BANG! I figured what better than the 1/72 Morser KARL 040/0041 Initial...

OMG :o It seems like forever since i have smelled super glue and styrene. I have been away from the hobby and my friends here at SMA for too long. Real Life has had me very busy. But that was then, and this is now! I look forward to catching up on all the great things everyone has been doing...

So I have watched several painters in videos (oddly it seems to be mostly mini painters). Now mind you I am not referring to a clean brush or a brand new one even. I am watching people load their brushes with paint and pop the brush in their mouth for a quick swirl or a lick? WTH? I don't...

Hi does anyone here or does someone know where i could get a custom figure sculpted? I am looking for a 1/24 1/25 scale baby in a johnny jump up or swing. I am currently building a 1/25 scale wrecker and I am looking to recreate this picture:

I don't have any spare resin to test with, but I was curious if you could heat and bend resin like you could with styrene? I have a resin light bar that I want to put on the headache rack of a towtruck however the light bar is perfectly straight and horizontal and the headache rack has a slight...

Hi folks, I have several mini humbrol pots and too few enamel streaking effects. So I thought, "Hey maybe I can make my own". Tonight I am going to experiment making a few with what I got, but I have a question for those out there that may know more than me. What is a good mix ratio and is there...

Hi folks, so I was starting to build a wish list of things I need/want for some future builds I have planned in the new year. And one thing that I need a few of is "tracks", mostly due to the fact the tracks for at least three kits have horribly warped one piece rubber tracks. And after pricing...

I found this site today and order a few pots of tamiya for $1.66, pretty inexpensive me thinks... They don't have a full line but enough colors that I was able to save about $15 from where I normally order my stuff. www.advantagehobby.com

Hi gang, I am working on a model for my uncle, or should I say, I will be when it gets here. He owns a towing and recovery company and one of his first trucks was an older Chev "hooker" like this one http://www.hobbylinc.com/htm/rmx/rmx857220.htm I am trying to find after market parts, and...

Yo Scott. So I was browsing around for a good diorama vid or two to get some ideas and found this... Star Wars Celebration V Diorama Workshop : HOTH BATTLE Fly By Tests. I remember you saying you had a pretty huge Star Wars themed Dio planned.. Was it anything like this? :o

I chuckled when seeing this, and since our fearless leader of the site is a member of this fine country I thought it appropriate. Canadian Police Chase

Hi all, I am looking for one or more rappelling special forces commando's for a project I am planning. Not having any luck. Wondering if any of you may know of something?

I am sure this has been asked many times before, but I did not have much locating any previous posts with the info i was looking for. So let's "beat that dead horse" So I read Ian's thread on photography for scale modelling and it was a ton of help for stills. My old point and shoot Pentax is...
