                        great sites great sites!!!!

                        I have to constantly remind myself to slowly build the skills up not go at them all out... last attempt to throw everything together resulted in a total loss of the motivation to build a model, and that's like the worst thing a modeler can come across...Dead [xx(]

                        Bud,

                           I think this is a great idea.  Any chance you can edit your first post and include all the links in one post?  I would say that would just about get it stickied for sure.  

                         

                        Great Idea!

                        Things could be worse. Suppose your errors were counted and published every day, like those of a baseball player. Life will always throw you curves, just keep fouling them off... the right pitch will come, but when it does, be prepared to run the bases.

                        Picked up this neat paint stand idea over on the Hyperscale forum. Quick, cheap and functional! I made mine to short, will redo it so I can fully rotate the model. Would also work great when applying decals and other detail work.
