April 2013


Ever since I started selling my N scale kits on eBay, I've noticed a dramatic uptick in the amount of competition. Today for instance, there are 18 listings for built-up DPM kits in N scale, vs. 4 in HO, even though HO scale has 4 times more modelers. It's like people realized how much money "someone" was making, and decided to suddenly copy him. Well, guess I know where to refocus my efforts. At least until others catch up with me there too.
 
I'm also contemplating going smaller and making some Z scale buildings; part of me wants to try making Sea Monkey habitats, tiny little towns perhaps with animation and lighting.....something novel, different.

I received my second 'pre-fab' kit in the mail yesterday and have started construction there, and will post pictures shortly. I think I still have to catch-up on my progress from the first as well. Hmm.
