You can order from the Internet from any of the big hobby shops like Micromark, Squadron, Great Models etc. but you can also try NM Hobbies at Harrison Plaza 2nd Floor. Sometimes Natalie has the popular imported items like Alclad II, brass tubing and sculpey, or you could try ordering it from her.

Great works, sir!

 

You make scratch-built models, are you an architect or interior designer, by any chance?

Went to Lil's last weekend. They had a whole slew of DML/Dragon 1/35 armor 'premium' kits. These are reissued kits with photoetch, magic tracks and sometimes even aluminum barrels, and at a very reasonable price too. They also had some interesting Italeri 1/35 armored cars on hand as well as AFV Club's Centurion NATO version (with the 105 gun). There goes my wallet again.

I'm sorry for posting a rather late reply regarding this topic, but I just wanted to share something lang. I have used both 'Future' and the local 'Wipe and Shine', and except for the initial milkiness of WnS, parang Future na nga - even smeels great too. What I would like to share though is that, even if both leave a gloss coat, should you want to make the finish matte, you can do so by adding Tamiya's Flat Base. You can read about this sa other websites on Future and modelling. I experimented at the start na trial and error and proportions ng Future/WnS with the Flat Base so be careful sa too much ng flat base or your kit will end up as if it had a winter camo pattern (powdery white overcoat). Luckilly, this may be remedied by overcoating with a better proportioned mix. FYI

Hi! :cool:

 

Could I join the group? I'm into building 1/24 scale model japanese cars and Zoids.

Anybody here is also into building these models? I previously accomplished building

the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution V Rally WRC (The one driven by Tommy Makinen),

a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI Street Version, a Liger Zero Phoenix (NJR), and an

Energy Liger (NJR).

 

I'm hoping that I can enter these models in a competetion. Anybody here knows where

I can join?

 

Thanks :mtc:
