Okay, I'll get a few more to you and you can choose what you want to showcase.speedgraflex wrote:Would you send me photos, Mark? I would love to showcase the scope of your work. I have the rail gun and the table shots of your collection from 3 years ago. I’d like the Speed Racer car and the other work you have been cranking out since...
Brent, that is a fantastic interview! I like that description too: handiabled. Brilliant! I also love the B-52; I have one of those in the stash that I want to build in that scheme, I just don't know how to get that multi-colored metallic appearance down.
Bravo!

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Nice work on the B-52. Not only the impressive multi tone NMF, but also the changes to modify from the tall tail D to a later short tail H. Bravo Brent!

Oh my God! I completely forgot about the Jacque Cousteau boat kit! I had that too! Talk about a true blast from the past! That’s definitely a rare kit to find nowadays. Another great interview! A shout out to Brent for mentioning the Jacque Cousteau Calypso kit! You’ve sparked even more great memories of my modeling days as a kid.

Re: SPA Modeler Member Interviews.
Good memories indeed. My friend had the Calypso and I had the Cousteau PBY. Good times.

Great interview. Hey, I'm from Minnesota too, East Bethel. If I'm not mistaken you're only maybe 60 miles from me. Isn't clear lake out by St. Cloud?
