I agree sometimes less is more but I never gave these a second thought other than I hope I don't break anything. As for the shop I'll have to catch him tomorrow, at least I know he closes at 7 now for next time. I've been sidetracked myself here lately after gearbox announced Borderlands 3 some friends wanted me to get back on BL2 with them so I've been playing that. Give them bands a listen you might find something you really like Metalheads are everywhere.

I actually did something tonight. I was already a bit rusty from taking the time to figure out a strategy for Facebook as well as organize the interviews. Cheers, my friend!

Nice work - it's always a good feeling when you get the main parts together and filled and it actually looks like it's supposed to - rather than just a collection of parts.

I know it really gives you a since of accomplishing something or it does me at least.

Your FW 190 build looks so far really good!
I have been following your build from "day 1" but have not commented or reacted "formally" before.
Must say, very nice build so far!
For me Trimaster is totally a new kit maker, never heard before. Luckily Scalemates exist and I could study more regarding Trimaster.
You learn every day something, that is just so!
I also love a lot the guns there, crispy detail and even if you said you did not paint them in any special way, the end result tells other!
It looks very real all in all

Tri Master is an old company. Along with Gunze (armor kits), they pioneered “multi media” kits decades ago, with PE and white metal detail parts in their kits. Tri Master molds were picked up by Dragon and by Monogram Pro Modeler for some releases.

That’s a great description, Carlos. I found this through Eaglecals, but the model itself is NOS from Old Model Kits.

Well, that means you’re getting the parts from when the molds were at their best, fresh and crisp.

Thanks guys this kit was top of the line at the time and still holds up in look and fit, not as super detailed as the new Eduard kits but great either way.
