Here is a German site for modeling, very professional builds.

Look at the models on this page.  It takes modeling to another level.  These models are very detailed.  Look at the guys face on the LunaDiver Stingray half down the page.  Amazing!

R/C sailplanes

I was looking for more blogs about flying and found this one on Blogspot.  Sailplanes are always a great choice for R/C flying.

Model training, building, finishing, designing

Something I haven't found is a place to go to learn more about model building.  I'm not talking about on the web, I'm talking somewhere local to me to attend in person.  Wouldn't that be cool to go get more instruction from professional model builders.  That would make a cool small business.

Any ideas from all of you readers would be beneficial to all of us.  Does anyone want to send me stuff to post?

Another cool model site

I am always amazed at the sites that pop up on the net.  This makes modeling a lot more fun.
Check it out.

This site is excellent for R/C Jet Planes. I went through it and want several planes including the SR-71 and Stealth jets. Very cool stuff, terribly affordable also.
Check out this site and buy something. We need to keep the modeling sites in business.
Here are some examples.

Tammies Hobbies Beaverton Oregon

I live next to one of the best hobby shops in the world. If there was one complaint about them it would be the prices. They jack their prices on models. I can't speak about the trains, and R/C stuff because I haven't researched it yet. But I have looked into the models they sell and I can get them cheaper from other websites I have listed on my blog. Disappointing because they are so close and handy.
