A Lot of Small Scale Masterpieces for Your Perusal
Posted by Duke Maddog on Friday, December 27, 2013 5:00 PM

Recently the Missing Lynx Braille Scale Forums held a Softskins Group Build in which approximately twenty people participated. Over fifty models have been completed in that group Build and the moderator of the Forums and Group Build compiled a Gallery of all the finished works from that Group Build. You have seen my submissions to this Group Build in my two Finished Models Threads; now you can see the rest of these incredible works in Braille.

I submit to you now: a link to that post on the Missing Lynx Discussion Boards showing the lengthy Gallery of Softskin Masterpieces:

Thank you for looking in. This is just a small example of how Small Scale is not yet dead! LOL!

Enjoy!

Small scale will outlast larger scales, they always do. Ask railroad modelers, airplane modelers and wargamers!

That is some very impressive work there. Thanks for sharing it with us! (I'll stick with 1/35 though)

Those were killer! I especially liked the old cargo trucks about halfway through, and the 501st PIR bus. Even with magnifiers, there's no way my eyes could handle working at that scale. Those guys got mad skills. Very inspiring!

Thanks for the great replies guys! We do a Group Build like this every quarter; our next one will be "Shelf Queens" or anything that's been sitting for more than six months waiting to be finished. That one should be a good one too.

There's a couple, Robert Yeatman and Dave O'Barr in particular. Neither participated in that Group Build though. Robert had been in one of our previous ones. The only AMPS guy I know of from the AMPS site is Joel Gewirtz, and he's in Chicago I think.
