buy him a tamiya kit..

I have made the shelby.. ok this is a good model, but revell is'nt fun to make for a newbee cos the result is crap when you dont take a lot of time.

Buy a Tamiya kit and some tamiya spray can... he should love this

If he is interested in cars, it shouldn't be hard to get him into modeling.

Get his favourite car and assist him to build it.. I am sure he will slowly love it.

hold him down and flick him in the forehead until he says he'll take up modeling.

Show him this forum! This is EXACTLY what got be back into modeling. Which is a good/bad thing. I've actually never finished a model in my life, well maybe one when I wasnt even a teenager and my dad helped me on it or something. I'm getting back into it, but they demand so many hours and I want to get one done so I sometimes become too dedicated it and want and will want to spend more time on modeling when I should be working on my 1:1 car or working on other important things lol.
