Hey guys. Hope this isn't out of line on this forum. I was at an old guy's house yesterday helping to clean up, as he's been moved to a nursing home. He has about 200 kits in great condition ... mostly planes and ships which are not my cup of tea. I was wondering if anybody had any advice about shifting these to make some money for his upkeep. I don't want to make a dime on the sale. It's basically pudding money for him!

Your best option is to list them individually or in small batches on Ebay although that can be very time consuming. A trader will give you a small fraction of their value. You could add them to your own stash and list them for sale on Scalemates but it might take years to sell them all. If you are on Facebook, Facebook Marketplace might also be worth considering.
Obviously the value depends a lot on the kits themselves. If they are expensive or rare kits it might be worth the effort.

This is great advice. I think a few of them might have value, but I'll do a bit of research. Thanks so much for replying, Gorby!

Thanks all for your encouraging likes and comments. I had to push myself to finally finish this one, it's a long way from perfect I acknowledge. But it's given me experience if nothing else for a nicer kit version by a different manufacturer in the future. It's niggling me that on the teaser image I didn't seat the canopy properly - I usually leave these loose so anyone can inspect the cockpit - it's just something I did as a child. However I may need to re-take this image just because you can see a small gap, which shouldn't be there... Modellers, we're all so fussy! As the wife will confirm when we talk about my DIY decorating timescales!... Anyway, thanks also to those who've separately liked 👍 You're all very kind 🙂 Next up, finally time to update the Black Bunny F-14 Tomcat album too...

Hats off to you - this kit almost broke me! Same as you, I eventually had to use brass rod to attach the missile tubes to the guns. On what planet are the tiny kit attachment points supposed to actually hold that large assembly in place? Easily one of the most "challenging " armor kits I've built.

Let me know how it works for you. Years ago I read about the salt method in finescale modeler and this kit was my test bed to try it a few years back. I was happy with the result. Just to add here, the areas on the decals, I carefully used the same aluminum undercoat with a brush over the decals so it looked naturally chipped off those areas on the fuselage as well after everything else was done.

I wish eduard would re-release a ton of their out of print masking sets. I search everywhere online and these are nowhere to be found. Very frustrating. Its as bad as old upgrade sets from Cobra company. anyone know where I can get this set? Even cutting edge's version is MIA.

Thank you for comments mates!
It's been a journey ... and it looks like I'm the first to reach the destination, at least in the 48 version.

PHOTO ETCH. Ever since I restarted model building, I've been seeing references to PE parts... and I've been puzzling about that. To me, PE stands for polyethylene, but that cannot be adhered with solvent cement, so my brow has just remained wrinkled. Finally today, seeing build, reading your notes, I realize that PE has all along almost certainly been a reference to brass / copper photo-etched parts.
Thank you for that. 😎
I think your build is beyond both my skill level and my patience level. Probably my budget as well. 😎

this is ridiculous, I am searching for this kit all over the internet and it is impossible to buy it anywhere!

Strange site. You have to start from their homepage, enter your region in de lower centre bit. If you search for 'negev' it's possible to add to cart. I stopped there.
If you follow your link, it states 'start a new shop session'
Hope this helps.

Beautiful. May I ask what paint you used for the bare metal finish? Thanks.

How do we categorize mask sets that come with decals? Or decals that come with mask sets?
For example, Galaxy Model 1/48 F-16AM 50th Tiger Meet 31 Tiger Squadron Mask Decal for Kinetic K48100 Model D48092
I will add it under paint masks like most of their stuff, but I will let the website boss figure this out...

The files for 3d printing are from cults3d, the engine is linked in the project. The company sells this as STL files on cults or from their own shop as printed resin parts. The missiles are from cults as well, they were free files but the modeler seems to set a price to his models after some time. To be fair, a very reasonable price for the quality!

@Spanjaard thanks! Yes, the trunk is wire around a cocktailstick and magic sculpt for texture. The leaves are also made with a wire in the middle, folded crep tape around it, cut the rough leave shape and lastly cut inside the individual "strands". Earlier wip photos might give you the idea.
