That's pretty  good. It's one thing to assemble and paint a kit. This sort of thing is another game all together. Very impressive.

That is awesome!  I bet I built 50 model kits when I was a kid and got pretty good at it, but what you've done there is a work of art.  Nice job!

Are you looking to sell them or just display them? How long each do they generally take you to complete?

They look really good, But what I wanna know is how you make them look like they are old and been sitting outside for years. Ive done some extra customizing on models Ive done, but nothing to that extreme.
