Your next one will be a bit better and then the next a bit better yet.

I don't do a lot of cars and even when I do they are usually the really old reboxes of AMT or Monogram kits since I do cars I had and in the condition they were in when I had them. This means no shiny paint but lots of simulated rust!
I was at a hobby shop in Toronto last week because I haven't been able to find the sanding sticks I like even on line so thought I would give them a shot. He told me that many basic items are hard to get right now because the hobby has taken off like crazy since everybody got locked down.
lol, well, this was a cheap kit. I guess I could have used the non-Nismo version which is half the cost, but eh. I gain quite a bit of dos and don'ts from this one, like not using the cement on the headlight covers

But yeah, glad I didn't get the AutoArt 1:18 and try repainting that. Don't think I can do that just yet.
