Here's the next generation of modelers. It's not a ship, but we did have fun.

Cool!

And hey, is that... the Mystery Machine? Geez, I had no idea a model of that little van existed! Great, now I need to get one too! And hey, Ambroid! I adore that stuff and buy it 4 or 5 bottles at a time. Little guy can't go wrong with a great teacher and excellent materials.

Hey Dade,
You are correct. Here we are mugging for the camera.

Rui, we've already got another father/son project waiting in the slipway. Hasegawa's Yuikakaze. It will have to wait until he's a little older.

Though I am no advocate of the "having fun" in model making, I really look forward such scenes in a forthcoming future with my own son, really that's very nice to see both you and the lil' chap in a great shape and health, having fun together

thanks for sharing really
