hi cosmo greetings from the philippines! just some tips on where to get kits. here's a list of places to check out when you get here:
*Lil's hobby shop in SM MegaMall and Makati Park Square 2 *Special Toys Center in Greenhills Virra Mall, Alabang Festival Mall and SM North Edsa *Hobby shop in Harrison Plaza (sorry forgot the name) *Hobby shop in Makati Cinema Square (sorry forgot the name again) That's pretty much where I get most of my kits. If you're looking for mainly tamiya kits then Lil's is the place to go. HTH! Bri |

Try either small emery boards or a small modeler's file. they're usually small and strong enough to help you get the shape you want

>BTW Fly what is styrene and were can i get it??? (now i know how kilrs >feels askin stupid questions).
Styrene is what most model kits are made of. It is plastic useally white. It can be bought at hobby stores, it comes in sheets (flat) and round solid tube sizes. I believe you can get squere shapes too. You can get it at good hobby stores. Sorry I don't know any good online stores. |
