Uncle Sweetie's Modelworks
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 28 ม.ค. 2022
This is the beginning of one adventure in Phase 3 of my life. I hope you join me on my journey as I re-enter the world of model building. I want to document my progress and growth from where I am at in my skills and knowledge in model building as well as TH-cam content creation. Hopefully I will encourage myself and others that if you have a dream, just start wherever you're at and just do the damn thing!
Christmas Stash Adds
These are the things I bought for myself for Christmas that got added to my stash. The "Santa Painting Cars" puzzle. I got one for me, one to give away and one just because. The Revell Heavy Duty Trailer kit which I have a plan for, to be pulled by one of my semi tractors, hauling the AMT John Deere 310 backhoe. Finally, I got the Aoshima Pagani Huayra Pachetto Tempesta.

Shop Card Shoutout @modelcar1589 and a Long Story Not Short
I have no tips on getting kits on the cheap....my wallet sometimes dislikes me...but I just keep feeding it. Sometimes you can find a bargain at a flea market...but not every time.
I may have to try the flea markets some time. I often don't spend the time on them because the "hits" are so rare. Thanks for watching!
Plaza Japan are really good also banzai hobby . I'm in New Zealand so freight will be different to tge USA but check it out I find getting 3 or 4 kits and maybe some aoshima wheel sets is the sweet spot for scale of economy on freight .
Thanks for the tip. I'll definitely have to check those 2 out and thanks for watching!
Nice haul Grady thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching, Jeff. I appreciate it!
Nice stash adds Grady, Plaza Japan
Thanks Tom. I've got 2 for Plaza Japan. I'm going to have to check them out.
@unclesweetiesmodelworks Just have to have enough to make the shipping cost make sense
Nice adds Grady and Facebook market place ❤😊
Thanks Shawn. I definitely keep an eye on Marketplace. A lot of the people around me want Ebay prices but I keep looking anyway. LOL
Nice stash adds.👍👍
Thanks! I appreciate you watching.
Great stash adds! Merry Christmas Grady!!
Thanks Larry. Hope you and yours had a great Christmas as well!
🤣 Glad to see you pulled the trigger on the kit!! I did a full unboxing and hopefully I get to it this year 😉 Congrats on all the stash adds 👍
Thanks Mike. Yes, I saw your unboxing. Looks like a fantastic kit!
Nice large scale bike Grady, should look cool with the luggage. I don't have a spectacular Black Friday purchase since I've purchased sporadically throughout the year.😊
I feel like it's going to be a great looking model when built.
Cool stuff. Opening a large scale kit can be shocking when you are used to a normal scale. And for your question .. I know I have gotten black Friday deals in the past, but I can't remember what they were, so I guess they were not terribly noteworthy. I did use a 10% off code this year on two used cameras from one of the large used camera dealers.
That sounds like a good deal to me. Hard to get discounts on used and we all need more camera gear sooner or later!
great video.
Thanks for watching, Leon. I appreciate it!
Awesome bike kit and luggage, that will be an awesome build Grady, for me it would be a laptop, Merry Christmas buddy, ⛄🎄👍🎁
Thanks for watching, Tom. I think a laptop is moving up my list fast. I've never had one and my PC is ancient. Making videos is getting harder and harder. :)
cool stash adds. Have a Merry Christmas.
Thanks Rick. I did have a great Christmas and I hope you and yours did as well!
You can never buy too many models, your just not building them fast enough😁 Time to get cracking on the bench. Nice update and your audio cuts out after 10:02 mark.
Thanks for the encouragement, David. Yes, definitely time to get cracking on the bench! Sometimes I feel bad that I keep buying without doing any building.
Nice haul of race cars Grady, but your sound does cut out at 10:00.
Thanks for the heads up on the sound. Grrr!
Hey Grady, your sound cuts out at 10:00. I did offer to help with that semi-truck haul 🤷♂️
I was hoping it wasn't something on my end.
Thanks for the heads up on the sound. I'm going to have to re-record and upload a new video.
And I still have a Moebius International Prostar with your name on it and a Pete wrecker that I haven't inventoried. 🙃
Green purple and black
I like the way you think. I'm going to have some orange too. Now if I'd just get to work on it already, months late... 🙃
Not that sweet guy, mine is better on KD
It is a good kit, I had some fitment issues when I built that kit.
I built it so long ago I don't remember, just the end result. Thanks for watching!
Cool kit, it builds up real nice too. You can do it with no problem Grady. Good luck to you.
Thanks, I sure hope I can!
That's a decent kit has a new issues but fun to build
Thanks for watching Phil.
Lookin forward to this one
I think I have a good color scheme, now just to get it done.
Nice kit to build, have fun!
Thanks for watching!
Looks like a cool build, 19 days? You can do it! It reminds me, I’ve got the same amount of time left to finish my Matador! Thanks!
We're down to 12 days. Wee can do it!
@@unclesweetiesmodelworks hopefully I can get some time this week to finish it, or, at least get the decals and clear coat on it. If the decals work, that is!
Have fun with it Grady, well it would be orange and black, not sure on the third color, red, white, 🤔
Thanks Tom. I'm waffling between green and purple. Maybe both...
The wheels in that kit are awesome!
They ARE cool wheels. Thanks for watching!
Video looks good Grady! Glad to see you back. The is the exact first kit I ever built! Looking forward to it 👍 White/Black/Orange
Black and orange are definitely going to be in there. Thanks Mike!
You can do it Grady!! It's a fun kit that builds up easy, but that hood is a little jinky. Orange, red, and black.
Orange and black for sure. Thanks for watching Larry!
I'm looking forward to watching your progress Grady! Cool kit! 😎👍
Thanks. I hope I can get 'er done.
Have fun with the Corvette gasser😊
Thanks for watching David. I appreciate it!
Where ya been Grady?
Hey, I appreciate ya checking in on me. Honestly, life has gotten the better of me lately and I just haven't been motivated. I'll get back to the bench and the camera soon.
G🙂🙂d pix of cars
Nice Peterbilt wrecker, looks huge. Have fun with the build when you get to it 😊
cool stash adds buddy.
Thanks for watching Bubba, I appreciate it.
Camera looks awesome Grady! Very nice score 👍
Thanks Mike. And thanks Mike!
Video quality is good! Save your money. No need to buy fancy cameras. Glad to see you! Nice rigs
Thanks so much. It just looked really dark on the screen while I was recording.
Dang! I've been watching for one of those crazy market place scores. Very nice bunch of kits.
Thanks Larry. Yeah, I was super lucky!
Awesome kits Grady!!
Thanks Tom. I'm still kind of in shock. LOL
Cool kits.
Thanks Mars. I appreciate ya watching.
Nice finds. What do you want for the wrecker?
Thanks Charlie. The Peterbilt Wrecker? I really don't know, I haven't inventoried it yet but definitely not the $400-500 I've seen asked for it.
Nice update and haul
Thanks Phil. I appreciate you watching.
