Star Racers - Online Model Race For Kids has a basic model kit that is then raced online. It's a competition meant for kids that allows them to be creative with paint design and introduces them to basic physics principles via weight placement. I thought those in this forum might be interested. The site is StarRacers.com Below is from our "About Us" page: Below is an illustration of how it works.

So, I’ve both black based and preshaded Models... but never both together. I tried blackbasing for the first time recently and liked the effect on my hasegawa F/A-18F.

Then paint over with the thinned top coat. Would this work or

In addition to building models, I also enjoy artwork. While a finished model is a work of art, I would like to augment my collection with some paintings.

Hello all, I know this sounds dumb but, can you use oil washes on models painted with Enamel paints?

I've looked on the internet and forums for anything concerning oil and I couldn't find anything of use. I know that it sounds like a terrible idea but I really like the look of a oil wash and how much time it gives for fixing mistakes. I just wanted to make sure before I ruin the paint job on my Me-262 B-1/U-1 I'm working
