Club Business

We had 4 “pillars” of scale modeling for the November 12th meeting. Entirely new corporate structures and group policies were passed with no opposition. JUST KIDDING! We had a nice pow-wow about the next group build and subject suggestions while also discussing paint stencils. Danny mentioned the next group build should be from a sealed kit.

Show and Tell – IMAGES OPEN IN NEW TAB

Brad showed his Ape Honda bike. He finished it in 5 coats of white Tamiya to match his Guerilla Bike. It is in 1/12 scale.

Danny was able to bring his Truck Build so we can see it in person. It is a beautifully done AMT Ford Race Truck with sponsorship decals by Slixx. He had some fit issues with the kit and the decals but turned in a solid, respectable build.

Robert, always showing his political bias, brought his newly completed JD Vance HMMWV with tow missile. It was an Academy kit and he doesn’t want to work on an Academy kit again! The model was finished in patriotic colors done with craft paint and featured political signs. He also brough his Trump Tank from years past.
