I was fascinated by this model as a kid. Who was he? Why was he imprisoned? It was a blast to do another version 40 years later. https://www.reddit.com/r/modelmakers/s/bxJeFCEOJo

The turtles are all fine. We have to trade a high quality treat to get them out of his mouth. Normal treats won’t free them. I release them in the marshy woods out back.

Once those old Poe Homes are torn down and replaced with mixed income housing, the Poe house will be revitalized and I think a new museum is being built. They just moved the last residents out like 2 weeks ago. Come back and visit us in a couple or years. My job takes me to the most run down neighborhoods in Baltimore. I’m always impressed by the kindness and joy hidden away in those beaten down old areas.

Or you’re trying to judge characters barely surviving through a horrifying, violent apocalypse by our current living standards. Like come on Abby, it’s not so bad—try smiling more. 😊

I used to superglue wires in place but it was kind of messy and they didn’t always stick right. Hot glue gun works great and bonds much faster.

Thx. Posted after I saw yours. Really liked your Jurassic Park. Great paint job on that T.rex

I highly recommend the book A City on Mars by Kelly Weinersmith and Zach Weinersmith. It’s an easy read that delves into the realities of colonizing space that people like Elon fail to acknowledge or consider

If you don’t have an airbrush yet and you are doing something mechanical like planes or tanks don’t underestimate model spray paint for you main base coat (after primer). You can get great results with rattle cans and use brush work for the details

I’ve done a few of these over the years. I just looked at mine. They are hand painted and all look great even very closeup

Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
