whatever P-man says, follow it to the letter. Seriously. My most recent work looks an easy five fold of my last job.

hey i agree with him, just keep practicing, and dont be afraid to try stuff. if u keep buying models and just painting them, u will never get good at mods.

Just remember that somewhere along the line, even P-man or Flyonthewall made a mistake. Right?

If u dont have time to practice often, like me, a good way to keep urself from rusting is to review the FAQ every now and then. Write down step by step instructions in your own words on a piece of paper and read it and review it often. I finished my ITR like 2 months ago, my next project (hopefully a EVO VI Zerofighter) will be in November.
