I’ve bought a couple of kits after decades of not fooling with scale models.

Next month I hope to get an airbrush rig. I never had one before.

"I've bought a couple of kits after decades of not fooling with scale models."

My son got back into it about 10 years ago. Besides science-fiction models, he does WWII vehicles, planes, tanks, etc...mostly German as that is his field of interest. He goes to Germany at least once a year, and is heading over there next weekend. He picks up models there every now and then. I visited him this past weekend, and he showed me a new model of the Millenium Falcon. This specific model is only available for purchase from Japan, and has many, many detail parts. There's even sitting and standing character figures of Finn, Chewbacca, Han, and Rey. There's also a BB-8. As well, he recently purchased a new model of a German Jagdpanther tank destroyer that he plans to make. His a pretty serious model builder, and builds his own dioramas to put the finished models in.
