    That's great you shared your tips!,to often i see people complaining of poor fit on kits,without test fitting,and primer and paint add thickness to parts and i don't think they realize that.

    The Muscle Car Modeler - yeah you oughta do a video of that , I believe everyone wouldn’t mind! I was 42 when my youngest daughter came along, so I know what you mean, but cherish them while their little because they grow up quick, seems like! I’ve got 5 kids and everyone of them are grown, my youngest 3 are 25 and younger but My two oldest boys are 38 and 39 now, pretty soon they’ll be having grandkids of their own and I’ll be a great grandpa! Geez! Oh well, it’s life! Take care buddy and stay safe! Peace ✌🏻
