Scale Model Kitwork

I know that a lot of hobby time in fandom these days is taken up with 3D CGI modelwork, but I was wondering if anyone here (listed or lurking) does anything with actual physical scale model kits, like you'll find at Hobbyhouse?

I've learned that several participants in this club started in Montreal are currently living and working here in the

what kind of models are you talking about. do a fair bit of model building myself mostly scale trains and boats.

Speaking for myself alone, I was thinking of fictional spacecraft, mostly, although other sorts might not be out of place depending on the context.

Has anyone out there tried, for example, to put something in a X-Files theme together?

HI:
I actually have a built but undecaled model of the Babylon 5 and apartly assembled International Space Station. There's quite a few space models in the Hobby Centre. Don't know what the other shops have. Unaware of any X files kits. Do you think this would work as an OSFS theme?
cheers

Model kit work would certainly count for an OSFS meeting topic, I think, whether the models were either the physical sort we've been discussing or the CGI variety.

I don't think there's any X-Files kits available anywhere at the moment, although I don't discount the possibility of scratch-built dioramas cobbled together from other shows' kits and whatever spare parts other disciplines might provide.
