 Re: REVIEW: MINIART - Shed With Wooden Fence
So, Vinnie, when are you going to build one of these things, from the number of pictures you've taken for the review of this one, I think its going to be soon  Gotta admit, the moulding is top notch, especially the wood Andy

 Re: REVIEW: MINIART - Shed With Wooden Fence
I agree with Andy. Their moulding has gotten a lot better. I may actually buy this one. The overall design fits really well with a dio idea I've had for awhile. I was going to cobble together a couple of MiniArt kits to get what I needed; but this one provides about 80% of what I had in mind. In the past, MiniArt has concentrated on structures with a basically rectangular or square footprint. This one shows a favorable new trend in my view. One thing I really like about MiniArt, despite the difficulty in working with vacu-formed sheets, is that the interior surfaces of the walls are modeled. We just need to add furniture or shop equipment. The interior wall surfaces are done for us, and generally done pretty well. In this respect, the MiniArt kits far exceed most plaster or even (forgive me Steve  )....resin structure kits. I think my local hobby dealer may be receiving a special order soon.

 Re: REVIEW: MINIART - Shed With Wooden Fence
This is actually an older kit which I built and have partially painted. They added the fence, tables, and light post in this kit. It was the second one I put together and was hard for me. I have a dio planned for it but it is no way near finished. I was going to use a buch of motorcycles the Miniart Harley kit, the Masterbox kit of a crew reaping them plus the Zevzda R12 w/ sidecar and pig with just the driver holding the pig in the sidecar coming down the road to the garage and call it "Hog Party". I own a Harley (plus my husband has one) and we are HOG members. HOG is Harley Owners Group, a motorcycle club spnsored by Harley dealers world wide, for those that don't know. Pam
