Re: Kit Manufacturers

On the subject of father son builds. One of the biggest regrets of my life is that when my son showed an interest in modelling (warhammer and warhammer 40K) I was unable to take a hands off approach. i just couldn't bear to see the models ruined as he learned the craft. I would let him build something and then repaint it properly when he went too bed. I really thought I was helping at the time, but when I look back, all I did was take away his sense of acomplishment. He has no interest in the hobby anymore and concentrates all his energies into sport and video games. I blew it. Word of advice, buy the kit, forget the price, let the youngster stuff it up completely and then pretend it's great and praise the hell out of him for making the effort.
