Tony's Scale Model Making

Tony has been model making since childhood when he and his father constructed models together. After an interval of many years, Tony's interest was re-ingnited and resumed this very intricate hobby. He found that by buying set lots of model packages online cheaply, he could select the ones he wanted to build, keep some and sell others.

So we could experience the organisation needed to construct a model Tony and Nicole have brought models, paints, glues and tools for members to make their own piece.Tony explained some of the techniques of giving realism to items.

There were many models and each has its own challenge. Members were given a pre-packed try of items and given 30 minutes to put together their own model.

Like kids in a lolly shop members selected a tray and some could be seen biting their lip in concentration and re-checking instructions to get their masterpiece together.

Eric gave a vote of thanks to Tony and Nicole for a very interesting experience of the intricate world of model making.
