    In this episode of "The Model Guy" I don't finish the build :(. It's not because of poor kit fit, or an accident...it's a mystery. Okay maybe it's not. My five year old daughter who's never shown any interest in destroying my models (and treats them respectfully) decided it was a target for her tantrum. A commissioned build at that...
    So, I still owe Mark a MiG-21 and I will deliver. But to make a good will gesture, I'll be starting on the P-38 tonight!

      Daughter is forever, models not so much. It wouldn't be great for her if I blew up over something like this. She'd never forget how I made her feel. Easier to just suck it up and take a few nights off

    For the very short time this MiG-21 existed, it gave me a couple of pointers towards building my own. 1) Reevaluate having kids. 2) Use Gx2 as a base. 3) Weather the dielectric panels instead of the metallic coat. A short life, but well spent...

    Looks (Looked?) great! I've been trying to get my hand on some Eduard kits but by the time you factor in shipping and duty they are so expensive here in Canada. I think I might have to pull the trigger on one of these migs!

    • @TheModelGuy
      @TheModelGuy  Před 3 lety

      It's a little sad that it's cheaper to order the kits from Europe then in Canada. Shipping inside of Canada is about $30.

    • @RobPearlman
      @RobPearlman Před 3 lety

      I was thinking of just ordering a bunch of stuff from their site just to make the shipping worth while even though id end up spending more in the long run!

I can't wait to see what you do with the P-38 I'd love to build it but here its north of $100 NZD. At least you have some additions to spares box.

      Why would I take the blame? My parenting style is the kids are responsible for their own actions. I've been leaving my model stuff out since she was two. She has two older brothers as well who she's seen model behavior of leaving certain things alone.
      She was having a tantrum, this was her outlet being mad at me. I doubt it will happen again.
