This refers to the "Thank You" entry in the Discussion section.

Since pictures can’t be posted in the discussion section I present this here.  On the discussion page under the theme “Thank You” Paul Egre expressed his desire to have windows added to the front, second story of Moochie’s Pawn Shop like those Robert Bruce added in his kitbash of that kit.  Dummy that I am, I just suggested that Paul create his own version, using pieces he has accumulated over years of paper modeling.  Well, I thought I’d let you all think about my comment for a day or so before revealing the tidbit shown in the accompanying picture.  Moochie’s is really Rudy’s, mirrored with a different roof line.  And of course it’s green.  The footprints are identical and you can swap quite a few parts.  As we’ve allways said.  AIN’T PAPER MODELING GREAT.

When you do the Muchies build is there anyway you could do it as a video You Tube build it is so much more rewarding in following along with some of your cuts and folds than just a before and after still photo

Paul, It's a good idea however the build is mostly completed and we cant go back. We also don't have the resource to do it right now.
Let me mention that Jim Gore will be doing a live demo at the upcoming NMRA national convention. Talk about a great opportunity to see a master at work. I woulden't be surprised that he might video tape it as well.
Wile we can't afford to display at the show, we will be there and at Jims demo. we will have models and collections for sale out the back door of the CMRV.

Thom I am not talking about studio quality videos a few quick videos taken with your cell phone would be a great help and post the short videos on the blog page this I think would be received well

You assume i have a smart phone, I do not. Videos are nice but really just build one and you get the skills. There's no mystery that common sense doesn't cover,
