Lawyer dad in Marshall, Texas, mostly federal courts & patent litigation. Interested in WW II, scale modeling, history, books, & learning. Scale fundamentalist - only 1/700, 1/200 & 1/72. Extremely fond of the rule of law and almost as fond of Canadians.
Would that be “Semi” OOTB? If so, I am stealing the abbreviation. Very useful!

Oh yeah. I might move Benham to Enterprise later, but Hammann will stay with the Old Lady.

I keep a broom and black dustpan handy and find all kinds of useful parts!

I like clearing the clutter out regularly, especially at the end of a build. But it never lasts long.

Okay, that’s way more patience than I have! I built an old Frog Ju88 last year, but went for aftermarket decals, so I didn’t pay much attention to how much the yellow bleached out. The ones that did were not as told, now that I think about it.

I have had luck putting decals in the sun in a bright window for a few days to eliminate the yellowing.

Great job! I just did that one earlier this year - about to start on a Tamiya Hammann.
