Red face Modeling....its like a sickness at times!

Had to go to the LHS today to get some Tamiya masking tape.

At least you're not scouring the globe for 10-year-old long-out-of-production super-expensive 1/12 kits.


...yet.

Sadly, yes. It is a sickness that can never be cured! Imagine how hard it is to work in the hobby store... Every day I work I have to arrange the shelves and make sure things are in the right place. Can you fathom what kind of willpower it takes to stare those beautiful Tamiya and Revell kits and say, "I can't buy you all! In fact, I only make minimum wage, so right now I can't buy any of you! Stop looking at me like that..."

It isn't fair.

Re: Modeling....its like a sickness at times!

I know what you mean... The last time I went to a hobby shop I spent 2 1/2 hours there just staring at the kits... Lucky me I don't have a hobby shop in town (at least none that I know of) or I would sleep there if it were possible

Hobby shop clerk: "Here's your change."
Me: "No, wait, I gave you two twenties, I need a five back, too."
Hsc: "Oops, sorry man, here you go."
Me: "Not that it matters. You're going to get it eventually, anyway."
Hsc: "Ha ha."
Me: "Oh, wait, I need some detail wire...."
