Well I just returned from my usual Sunday outing to my local hobby shop and come to find out they closed down.. :'( it had been a few months since my last visit.
It was just a hobbytown USA, but it was the shop i bought all my paint and supplies at for the last three years, I have definitely been more into buying my "model stuff" online lately just because I can find exactly what im looking for. But as far as paint, glue, knife blades, putty, the occasional "oh that looks like a cool kit, i'll pick that up", etc., etc...all gone now. I guess i'll be buying everything online from now on which doesn't bother me too much except for the paint. buying paint online just seems like a huge hassle
to me. I liked being able to run up to the store if I needed a particular color, just felt like venting this info out cause i was rather disappointed that I couldn't get my supplies today. All I have now is a Micheal's and all they sell are the old school testors enamels which I udderly despise......oh well.....
Anyone else live in a town with no hobby store?
