Well, I'm still not Johnny on the Spot about anything to do with modeling these days, so I'll just post what I've got. Building the old Monogram kit right along side the newer HobbyBoss is interesting. Lots of detail on the HB..... that gets covered up when you're done. :)
And a little history... Here's a pic of the little Model Whisperer in his dungeon back in the 70s. You can see a 1/32 Corsair to the left, on the table is the yellow lightning bolts of a 4 plane Blue Angel Display WIP and the USS Arizona on the shelf. Bean bag, G.I. Joes, Legos and maroon pants are a dead give away pretaining to the time period.
