This clinic will teach the beginner in modeling the basics in working with a HO Craftsman Modeling Kits. Or maybe you are just in the mood to relax on a Friday evening and make a building, right? This is also a refresher for more skilled hobbyist with a chance to practice and learn some new techniques. The goal is that you will leave the clinic with a completed kit suitable for judging as well at completing a building for your layout. Instructions or lack thereof can be intimidating, but will demonstrate though a preview PowerPoint how the parts go together and in proper sequence. We’ll work on bracing, creating solid corners, painting and weathering techniques. We’ll also discuss how to finish off your diorama with the proper placement and scenery, as well as a discussion on forced perspective. I encourage you to bring some of your favorite standard kit building supplies, but we will attempt to supplement your tool box. Bring along an X-Acto knife or a similar cutting tool, some sort of square to hold walls at a 90-degree angle, mini plastic or metal clamps, and a variety of paint brushes and glue.
