Toshi - 

Outstanding paint job. I swear Toshi you are one heck of a modeling machine. Your builds just keep getting better and better and better. As always I enjoy watching your builds and again, great job sir.

 

Thank you Hunter.  You know, you're skills on your first build far surpasses my skills on my first build.  I can only eagerly await what your future projects will look like!

Wow....that was fast. Looks great too...
 

Thanks lawdog114.  This was a tough build as it was a older mold but I was able to get by with what I learned here on FSM forum and it's members.  Thanks for the visit!

Toshi,

That looks really good and gives me inspiration when I get around to building my 1/72 Airfix kit. Sorry to hear you've been battling more health issues. If I miss a week visting this site, I come back to find you've completed three kits! Keep up the great work as always my friend.

 

Thank you for the compliments as well as your concerns for my situation.  It is greatly appreciated.  I'll keep working for as long as I can.  Thank you for the read and reply.

Bravisimo Toshi!!!

You made that kit sing with beauty. I personally like 1/32nd scale even though I now build all the majors 1/72 and 148 because my son can't quite handle 1/32nd yet.

Every major WW2 nation has a particular character to its aircraft and the British are no exception. I too really like the Mossie and in 1/32nd it's a beauty!!!

Today being Valentine's Day I hope there were nice treats waiting for the Mrs.

My wife has always been supportive even more so now that I buy and build with one of the kids. I am forever fighting against him going over to the "Dark Side" of video games so I spend a lot of free time building with him which I love anyway.

Congrats on the Mossie can't wait for the FW-190. I just love Revell Germany and Airfix for that matter too!!

 

Have a great day

 

I just love the detail of a 1:32 aircraft.  The FW 190 is no exception.  Just the radial engine has several detailed pieces to it.  It's a kit in itself.  I must appolagize as I have to back track and finish my Trumpeter 1:32 Stuka build.  That's on another thread, come by for a visit.  I just painted part of it today.

Everyday is Valentine's Day for Mrs. Toshi, I treat her like a Queen.  As for you sir, your the best kind of dad!  Building kits and spending time with your son is key to his life.  When he gets older he will always remember and never forget these precious moments in his life with the bond he created with you.  This is something that lasts forever, he will never forget.  Thumbs up to you my friend.  I did the same thing with my son twenty years ago.

Thank you for the read and reply!
