Hey Bobby,
thanks for the interest! We could use some tips for the sept. issue. At any time you can write your own artilces, anything having to do with models! Send in a pic of a model w/ a brief write up.
We are looking for some feature articles to, this is basicly a step by step process of your build from start to finish, with pics, text captions, and a small article. Just like they do in the other model magazines! lol except in the Modelers Choice Magazine.......EVERYONE GETS IN!!!! No pickyness and no favorites!!!

ive always got it adam! lol I know what you mean and i hear it all the time from people, on the internet, at shows and contests, swapmeets etc etc.
for the features, i just say take the best pics you can! I try to clean them up etc too, but they will still be on the cover or in the modelers gallery!!!! maybe someday this will turn into a big magazine like the others. and also in magazine form instead of on line only for right now!
Thanks
Manny

Hmm...sounds interesting. No bias huh? I like that. You interested in a scratchbuild how-to? I converted a Plymouth flathead six over to 1950 Ford truck specs. I also made a late 60s Ford 200 ci six cylinder from plastic scrap. I dont resin cast (yet) so I have to make each one individually, and the next one I do I could document as I go.
