The local drugstore had the whole series and nobody else was buying them, so over the next year I bought the rest. Then I acquired a few of the Aurora 1/48 kits and the Revell 1/28 Fokker Dr. 1.

Ah...I wonder if I can buy it 'raw' here, then. I just assumed I could and was planning to do so as I'm not impressed even a little bit by the two attempts that I've made towards buying "modeler" liquid cement. I think I'm going to use the MicroScale stuff as an air freshener as it's "lemony fresh" but it doesn't do much to plastic :-) The other stuff I've got is bottled by a company in Ontario and it smells for all the world like a chloroform/methanol solution and doesn't work much better than the lemon stuff.

I have an article half-written for FSM modeler about this. Basically I see 3D painting, like Mark Miller's, being "plotted" in solid form eventually. I expect you'll buy a CD (or it's equivalent) and paint it in 3D space inside the computer. Then you send it to the 3D plotter. Then you straffe the dog with it on your way to the display shelf. The steroe lithography, or 3D plotter, is here. At the moment it is hideously expensive to the private consumer. I figure that will change as the technology grows. All they need to do then is incorporate coloring the model as it is "printed". It may seem far-fetched, but the technology is already half-way there. In the future modelers like me will just stack the model CD's in the closet after taking the wrapping off. Also, my apologies about the on-list Tom Atkins kit post. Later! Brent PS: I am still working on producing my first kit. (You may have noticed I am not posting as much lately.) It is taking advantage of modern technology too. But that's still a secret.

A present I recieved on my 6th birthday. (I got 8 models on my birthday that year). Dad helped me build it, so it was relatively glue spooge and fingerprint free, though unpainted. Hey why paint it? It came with black and red parts, all you needed were the decals and they had those super helpful raised markings so you could get them in exactly the correct locations. I also got a set of books that included one on Medal of Honor winners that had Frank Luke's story in it. I had been "building" kits for several years mostly, (the ones that got completed anyway), with Dad's help. As any parent of an egar young modeler knows, youthful enthusiasm often leads to rough handling of half dry styrene assemblies. Dad's constant reminders on the subject led to me referring to plastic kits in my pre-school days as "Be Delicates". A few years later, (parents had split up), my Stepfather told me a story about making models out of balsa and tissue or carving them out of balsa blocks. I pestered until I was taken to a hobbyshop from which I left the proud owner of a Comet J-3 Cub in the yellow and orange box. Three weeks later I went to the 5 & 10 store to buy a baseball glove I had been saving allownce for. I left with a Guillows SE.5a :-) In the mid 60s we used to spread newspapers on the kitchen table and build plastic kits at least one evening a week. Robert had his own stash of kits. A few years back the old packrat dredges out an Airfix Albatros, purchased for 29 cents. You can count the rivets on the propeller sheathing. Try that on a 90s release of the same mold. I did it as von Hipple's dragon ship. It was the first one where I used an aftermarket engine,(Engines & Things), and a brass interior, (Rosemont). It was destroyed in a fit of spousal pique and then repared. It now resides in the display case. A tangable link to fond modeling memories. What kind of kits will our Grandkids be building? Irrelavent considering the fun they will be having and the basis for the enjoyment of a lifelong hobby they will be building as they slop gluie fingerprints on styrene and wipe the resultant mess on the legs of their pants. sp ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 May 2002 23:14:39 +0200 From: "Hans Trauner" To: Subject: Re: models of the future Message-ID: <009601c208e8$2d2aa6c0$c4ab72d4@FRITZweb> I am convinced that the multi media kit will be the future.

I have the Polish version (sent in error by an internet hobby store after I ordered the German kit, and now not able to be swapped) but I really want the German version. The Polish version has markings for 13 different aircraft - but all from the 1919-1920 war between Poland and Russia (not a Balken Kreuze anywhere!). Two schemes are for Latvian aircraft with big red swastikas on white circles, and two are for LVG CVs flown by the British including one with "Kaiser Bill" in big letters on the fuselage and British roundels. I would be happy to trade something for the LVG decals (I have quite a lot of OT decals including the recent Delta set for German aircraft including Menckhof's Alb DV, two SSW DIIIs) or pay reasonable costs. If you can help (or know someone who might be able to help) I would really appreciate it.

No, there is no reason to buy the MAC kit. It's way overpriced for what you get, and actually *worse* than the Revell kit.
