Evening Ladies, Germs and Children of all ages, No, I'm not sick again. Actually, I feel really great and the Mojo is soaring.

Afternoon world, Thanks Dude 2! Be gentle and the lead wire works fine. Just don't squeeze it with the tweezers when handling it. There is something about Lozenge decals you gotta love!!! Much too Kind Chris! In 1/32, it's a lot easier to do than in your scale. At 1/72, I can't even see half...- Allen Dewire

Afternoon Good People, I've been kind of absent lately due to a Mojo dip and some winter blues too. Weeks of dark dreary days without sunshine and always working under the LED lamp has taken it's toll on the remaining few brain cells in my melon. Playing in plastic wasn't cutting it (pun...- Allen Dewire
