Kevin is an old friend and local boy here in Northern California.  He was a regular contributor on the 'drome and wwimodels.org.  He is a brilliant artist and I admire his work greatly.  Sadly, he was diagnosed with congestive heart failure a few years back and has slowed down quite a bit.  I haven't heard from him in quite a while and was beginning to worry about him, but it seems that this article was just updated, so that's good news.  I'll try to get in touch with him and encourage him to join up here.
Cheers,
Bud

Yeah, Scott, good memories.  Kevin, Des, Rowan, you, me and a few others were in the first round of 'drome exiles.  I reckon our tolerance for trolls was far too low.  I'm so glad that Des created this great home for us.  I just hope we hear from Kevin again.
Cheers,
Bud

I remember Kevin's Builds . His last one on the Drome was the Lohner T . Still jaw dropping !

yeah bud, great memories. the drome used to be a great place. cept des used to be beeza,lol. i am also glad that des was able to create this new site for us which is better than all the others out there for this genre. all the top modellers ,writers and artists are here. hell we had ray rimell as featured modeller month before last. without him we would be all building oob aurora and revell stuff. he has made it possible for us to have accurate kits with his documentation, obviously his writers are also the reason but he is the guy that put them all together in one place and 40 years ago was scratching stuff like his amazing lvg.i'm addicted.

Perfect works!
The process meters...  therefore so much models are stuck between start and finish
