So, I kinda wish I had a better name for this last group. Because this makes it sound like it’s just a bunch of lesser-valued tools. But there are some good items in this group for sure! Now, not all of these are tools for everyone, and I didn’t end up using each and every […]

Review Build: B-24 Liberator
Big. This model is big. It’s technically not an ICONX / Premium Series model, but it might as well be. I don’t quite know how they managed to make something this big with only 3 classic-size Metal Earth sheets. It’s quite impressive. And it’s gorgeous, too. The camera did not do a great job of […]

Tools Review: Pliers from 3DMetalTools
So here’s something a little different. Instead of reviewing a model, I’m reviewing a bunch of tools. I didn’t come up with this idea on my own, but it will be the first in a series. I was contacted by Brian Gray, who runs 3DMetalTools.com, about whether I would be interested in reviewing some of […]
