Hey Everybody!

I need someone in or around Missouri to build some armor kits for me. I will supply the kits and compensate you for your time and efforts.

I need someone who can build a kit fairly fast (1 week tops) , nothing fancy, just put together the kit.

I just dont have that much time to build them and the kits will be used to sculpt masters to fit the kits.

If this is something you would be interested in doing without charging an arm and a leg let me know and maybe we can work something out.

Thanks in advance!

Anders, that sounds like a pretty good deal Joe is offering you, just charging postage. Most of the time a model can be shipped across the US for less then five dollars, unless you got a lot of resin in it, then the weight will cost more.

Joe should have some models for you to look at so you can see his work, I believe he does pretty good work, and doing it for shipping cost, now that is something I couldn't do. As a matter of fact he has a scratch Mortor in 1/16 scale he just posted, you can look at, plus a lot of other scratch building he done in the past, his scratch work really has impressed me.

Besides I'm way to slow for your time schdule. I believe His offer is something to think about. Take a look, and decide for yourself.

Anders,

I'm willing to help you out. I've got a few models I've built here in my gallery. I consider myself a fairly good model builder.

Have two pluses going for me. One is that I live in Yukon, (Texas county) Missouri. about 45 miles south if Rolla, 20 miles north of Cabol and about 100 east of Springfield. Tow is that I only work about 25 hours a week.

i'd gladly build. It's one of my favorite parts of making a model. I'd pay shipping (if it was reasonable- $3-5) and just tape an envelope of spare parts to it

Hey Guys!

Thanks again for all your offers! I have talked to Mother and we came up with a deal, since he was first I gave him priority and it has nothing to do with all of your building skills (it really dont matter as they will never be painted, just props).

Thanks again guys, very appreciated, great to see so many helpful folks here!

No problem. The way I look at it nothing to lose by offering. If in the future you need another or more help just drop me a line.
