Thank you Cobra - I especially enjoyed the section with different tips and tricks. Well illustrated with photos and easy to understand. I'll definitely be checking back here for ideas!

While we're adding websites to check, what about:

http://www.finescale.com

It's the page for "Fine Scale Modeler", and also includes a help and tips section, discussion forums, etc. I subscribe to this magazine - they almost always discuss WWII aircraft kits, as well as GV's, etc.

If we get a special forum for modelling, we should have stickies with modelling tips and such!

By the way, here's a model I made:

I make minicraft models, { 1/177th scale } i like them for the small size,but still great detail "i guess"

Only planes i dont have, is the temp "bah" and the p40e.
They only cost like 10 bucks a kit,and are so small you can place them just about anywhere,right now i have a p51 and 47 "taped" to the top of my monitor.

I never realy liked big models, could never play with them without brakeing them,im a hands on guy.

Pluss the planes are so small,you can glue a straw to them,and show people combat menuvers and such, without hanveing a 2 pound plastic model hanging off the front.

and they double as a dog chokeing device "that will teach you to eat my p40e yah bastage, Rip muttly" ...now to find another p40e 1/177 scale at long's,no luck so far,and that was like 8 years ago,sighs.
Guess i should order a catalog.

What size P-38? I'm working on a 1/6th scale P-47D, for the
last 2 years, its in paint and final assembly now, expect the 1st
flight in the fall. Gonna take some time to work up the nerve
to put that baby in the air

I've also got a F4U in 1/5th scale that I am working on a little
at a time (saving up for retracts and engine)

Why? This is not a modeling webpage. While we may be interested in models (I know I sure am), this isn't the best place. I find ARC (aircraftresourcecenter.com) to be one of the best forum-oriented places for discussing models and the world thereof.
