2 Finding Kitbashing Opportunities Thank you Richard Hendrickson Stan Rydarowicz Mark Feddersen Clark Propst Bill Welch John Nehrich Jeff English Tony Thompson Ed Hawkins Pat Wider
3 Finding Kitbashing Opportunities Start with what you know, e.g. a car design, a road s specific cars, a type of specialty Ask questions or search for answers. Good resources are the various Yahoo! Groups lists, e.g. STMFC Learn more. Look for articles and reference material. Articles by Richard Hendrickson, Stan Rydarowicz, Clark Propst, and Mark Feddersen, to name a few Be observant
4 Finding Kitbashing Opportunities Look at and for photos, particularly at meets when Bob s, Mike Gruber, Jay Williams, etc., are present Check and reinforce what you know so that differences become apparent. Even the best miss things. When you go back to things you ve looked at before and look again for the first time things that you missed become apparent
5 Finding Kitbashing Opportunities What follows is not meant to be a checklist of projects to do It is not meant to be a how-to for projects. You know best what works for you It is merely meant to highlight variety and inspire you to do the projects that interest you
6 Finding Kitbashing Opportunities Start small Develop your skills Move on to more difficult projects Attempt to incorporate a different challenge paint or letter matching airbrushing working with a new material such as brass, resin, vinyl, even styrene expanding technical capabilities such cutting and reassembling, filling and surface repair, bonding dissimilar materials, scratchbuilding details, etc.
7 Finding Kitbashing Opportunities Tools & Supplies Calipers True Sander (Northwest ShortLine) The Chopper (Northwest ShortLine) A GOOD mitre box and saw RP Toolz punch and die (also Waldron) Chiseling blades Saw handle and blades from UMM-USA (not for the mitre box)
8 Finding Kitbashing Opportunities Tools Go to UMM-USA, RP Toolz ( and look around Visit hyperscale.com regularly Learn!!! Buy cheap junk to learn to cut things up and reassemble them
