Home from the show and associated road (flights) trip which included spending time at Sprue Brothers Models. I hope the staff there is enjoying the little project we completed yesterday based on a suggestion I made to enhance their quality of life. Hey guys, are you chill’in yet? LOL
Even though I didn’t enter a model at the Nats it was a rewarding visit. I caught up with old friends, met new ones and laid eyes on folks that were just a voice on the phone, screen name or an email addressee.
It also gave me the opportunity to chat with modelers, vendors, IPMS & industry reps to which I discussed various topics effecting this hobby. Communications is crucial at times like this. We’re all seeing the effects of the economy regardless of where you call home, domestically or abroad…its a global economy.
I shot several short videos which will allow some of the vendors to tell about themselves and their products, which as soon as I can I’ll be uploading and posting here.
I’m looking forward to the 2011 Nationals in Omaha. Hope to see you there. Oh and before you ask…yes we are planning on vending in Omaha as part of the Sprue Brothers contingent.
Who knows, maybe I’ll even enter a model or two…my contributions to EAA’s Little Wings-Big Dreams exhibit should be returned by then.
The two models pictured according to their entry form used our products!


What is the best masking tape to use to prevent leaking, and, ridges? And, how do I go about repairing a major screw-up on a 1/48 Blue Angels Hornet? I left the top stripe for last, and, sure enough, I ruined a beautiful paint job!
