[@KABModels]

Dad and Daughter builds, needs to be a channel of its own mate, you're on to something there!

[@fenrismodels]

Hey, that's an idea! I need to get her up to the bench more, it's been a while since the last one

[@laurenwestmoreland9182]

I CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED THIS PREMIERE

[@fenrismodels]

Haha no worries! Luckily, the video is up to be watched whenever with KZbin ;)

[@Simon_Nonymous]

I missed it too - sorry real life got in the way but... I hope you are both very proud. I have never had kids, but watching this makes me wish I had 🙂EDIT shared with my sister who is into hobbies, and has a grandaughter about the same age as MiniFen who likes making things with granny.

[@fenrismodels]

No worries! We are exceptionally proud, she did such a great job!

[@MannsModelMoments]

This is absolutely awesome! Definitely something you should both be proud of!

[@fenrismodels]

Thanks! She's really picking up the hobby fast!

[@WayneWelly]

Very nicely done and mini fenris did a good job too

[@fenrismodels]

She really did! I am QUITE proud of her on this one.

[@ModelMinutes]

That was a fun build :D

[@fenrismodels]

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! It's been a lot of fun doing these up with her, I think she's starting to get the hang of it!

[@foszasty]

Oh, and I have a question. If I'd try to interest a 5yo niece into scale modeling, which Tamiya dinosaur would You recommend as a first kit?

[@fenrismodels]

Hrmmm... The ones I have built have all been relatively comparative. If she has a favorite dino, I'd say go with that; loving the subject goes a long way with modeling I think. Otherwise, I'd say start with some of the non-diorama sets and work your way up from there. The stegosaurus stenops, for example, was a really solid build (even if it *was* somewhat inaccurate)

[@foszasty]

@@fenrismodels I think that the accuracy won't be an issue with 5yo. She has Her birthday soon, so Stegosaurus it is. 😊

[@RobertHunt-tn4jz]

Like your one-horned dinosaur I had triceratops and Sytracosaurus hope I spelled it right

[@fenrismodels]

Which one-horned dinosaur? Chasmosaurus has three, it's just a little hard to see on the baby one lol

[@RobertHunt-tn4jz]

@@fenrismodels I can't remember the name of the book I had that I found in the school library I showed it to my aunt and she got it for me by ordering it it had a lot of dinosaurs but they were in black and white this was in the days before Middle School keep doing that modeling I can't afford to do it nowadays.

[@RobertHunt-tn4jz]

I don't have this company's prehistoric creatures but I used to have Aurora's never had the T-Rex my second youngest best friend I had the Allosaurus & some others. Some were mammals especially the woolly mammoth and the saber-toothed cat I also had the three cavemen one of the a woman.

[@fenrismodels]

I've yet to build some of Aurora's old stuff, part of me wants to and part of me is terrified of those molds haha!

[@foszasty]

That is ultimately impressive! Sorry Fenris but I think it's time for You to step aside, retire and cede the channel to the younger generation. She'll definitely manage on Her own. 😊

[@foszasty]

I am 1 000 000% impressed with the brush control there. 🤩

[@fenrismodels]

Haha there's certainly nothing to worry about, the hobby is going to be in good hands!

[@fenrismodels]

Right???

[@foszasty]

@@fenrismodels Definitely!
