long time ago, many moons back when time was plentiful, I built the models of plastic. Winston Cup Stock cars were my specialty.

Did a few.....
A-10 Thunderbolt II, aka Warthog  ....
B-17 Flying Fortress......that thing was huge.
At that point in my life, I was far too impatient and not as mechanically skilled for that sort of thing....so they ended up with glue showing everywhere and paint not well applicated

Yeah, I got into that over Christmas and did a C-5 Galaxy (USAF Cargo plane) and started on an aircraft carrier. I like doing it, but wish the stickers were easier. I hate the water thingies. I think I'll do a C-130 gunship next or an F-22.

I used to do quite a few plastic models....Then if a part fell off and got lost, I would stuff it full of toilet paper, gasoline and fireworks...and stage a crash
Needless to say, I have one model left....if I even have it somewhere... | |

Hmmmmm maybe I'll get into it again. Unfortunately the winter months are soon over and I won't want to be inside
