I can’t imagine how unhealthy it would be to have a relationship with someone who shares your super glue with you. I glue the lid on enough myself and don’t need to be mid build when I find she had done the same. Glued lids cost me more in glue than running out does.
This is a very old thread but I will jump in anyway. I see nothing wrong with girls doing plastic modeling. Heck I wish my wife was a model builder too so she can help me bring down the stash count. She is very supportive of my hobbies so there is no issue there as I see some guys that have to hide from their wives what they buy so not to upset them. She says my modeling is VERY complicated specially all the scratchwork I do. I also tried to get her involved in cycling since I own 7 vintage Schwinns and a Chicago Welding Company 1948 Roadmaster, but to her is too much work lol.
I do believe Keyda is the only girl in this group. For those that have seen her builds will agree she is a very talented young lady and one heck of a car mechanic/body repair dudette. I think Elizabeth is a model builder too but not sure.
Yes, I belive you’re right about Elizabeth. There’s also Peaches and one other I think.
My better half likes to build Gundam models. This is half of her collection. Shelf is really dusty it’s just a pain to move everything.
She’s built over a hundred kits so far. She’s happy snapping them together from time to time I’ll do some detail painting if she asks. She doesn’t have much of an interest in gluing or painting them. She does have her own set of tools and works at the computer desk. So neither one of us gets in our way if we are working on something at the same time.
My daughter built some Tamiya dinosaurs back in the 1990’s. I taught her how to use the Badger airbrush I had. She was 12 years old then. She caught on quick, and she is very artistic. She entered IPMS show and won Best Junior model with it. She realy P.O. some boys with it! I had nothing to do with it. She is a very talented modeler. She did Artwork in High School. We talk about it all the time, but she hasn’t built a model since. I guess she hit the imaginary wall.
