10/08 The contest entry page and first two entries are posted now.

10/07 AGHHHH! I got so involved in setting up contest pages that I forgot to upload the calendar! Sorry about that - October's free, downloadable wallpaper is a based on David Hanners' 1/48 card model of X-15A-2 ser.no. 66671.

Speaking of contest pages --- I have a number of entries already (and keep 'em coming!). The first is posted today - the "Entries" page is not yet done, but I'm working on it.

Forgot also to update the "New in the Store" page --- Lots of new stuff I should post there - including new Cryusher joe kits, detail sets for the Discoprise, a nifty set of lighted magnifiers, and lots more. Have a look!

09/01 September's free, downloadable wallpaper is a based on Doug Stewart's build of a resin model of Thunderbird 1 by UNCL in the UK.

08/13 Thursday the Thirteenth seems like a good day to launch our 24th Online Model Contest - especially since the IRL versions are being cancelled right and left.
