Thanks so much, Mark.

I’ve been away, managing two broken teeth. Actually, I know you know that because we texted about this. Contact with you, and the promise of spending a hobby day at the hall keep the flame of modeling alive when the winds of time begin to blow.

This and the MPC X-Wing are sitting on the shelves right now. Not forgotten. Just waiting for a certain spark or sparks to fly again.

Bring them to Hobby Day tomorrow; I'm certain a spark will light up there!

We know it too well Bruce; It’s not always easy, not just to find the spark, but to keep it sparkling as well!

Time helps!

Yes it is, but we also have them every Monday afternoon from 1:00PM to 10:00PM. It is a tremendous help for me in getting things done.

I wonder when the figures I have sent might arrive at yours Bruce....
Hoping further one of them might fit or if you can make them fit. Let's see.

Greetings from Yorkshire, England.

Gentlemen, Thank you for your replies and support here which mean so much to me! Not simply this place, our little forum clubhouse here, but for all of your messages online, too. And yes, yesterday was a Hobby Day. I wasn’t there but the Saints did release a video starring the Duke who yesterday hit a major milestone.

1800 completions.

1800 built kits, not counting what he built as a wee lad by the side of a ditch or wherever Wee Lad Duke built models.

That’s a sum worth celebrating.

I’d settle for one this year. Just one.

Lets see.

Marius, I’m collecting image reference for painting the pilot figure you are so graciously sending my way. I can’t wait to begin. Greetings to you from the United States.

Thanks to one and all.

Happy Tax Deadline to all U.S. citizens.
