I just wanted to let you know that you became a million billion times cooler because now I know you collect scale models of airplanes I'm pretty sure I've favorited your entire gallery at this point...sorry for continued spam, but I FREAKING LOVE THE STUFF YOU DO XD

Mahalo for the support.
Been awhiile since i have completed a model, and still have over 100+ of them to do.
One thats at the top for the planes is the 'Enemy Ace' WWII story line of the ME-109 and the ME-262 all bright Red like the story had.

You're quite welcome!
Oh man, well, you have options when you want to start building again
Oh! I think I've heard about that before. The German Aces had such differently painted plans to clearly show the enemy what they were up against, and that they weren't a pushover. That's exciting to hear that an actual line is out there for those birds

Ha, i sure do, cars and planes, but as of my last big build i got in to tanks....im thinking tanks might be my thing next.

Yeah the 'Enemy Ace' Comic is of a WWI ace AKA the Red Baron-eqe pilot, this story line puts him in WWII as the government pushes him in to it.
It shows his mastery of the air and of the planes he flys but also gives him demons in his life he has to face. Its 'ENEMY ACE: War in Heaven by Garth Ennis'

It also a great read with amazing art.

I just went to a meet up for TF fans, and one of the guys there was talking about the 1:6 scale model tanks he used to collect. XD Tanks are awesome too! I'm sure whichever one you decide to dig into next will end up looking epic! Ā 

I'll have to check to see if that's at my library because just looking at that cover makes me want to read it now. XDĀ 

Thanks for mentioning this. Ā
