How did you fair with Katrina? Also how about the other guys in Lauderdale?

At first every was good, then I told her that I don't like her.... And she started this big fight. :-)
Didn't had light for 12 hours. Was boring sitting home.

Just found this thread, and thought to look for more in our area. Dojo looks to be the closest to my home of Fort Lauderdale here. Any more folks nearby?

Ciao Dave,
Hailing from NAS Pensacola (home of the Blue Angels and National Museum of Naval Aviation). My closest neighbors appear to be Herchealer and kilntime.
Ciao for now

Lake Mary / Longwood area here. I have a question for you Orlando guys. Im having a real hard time finding a hobby shop with modeling supplies. Most of the places in my area only do RC. If you guys know some places in the Orlando area go ahead and email me at cbl12886@gmail.com because I check my email more than the forum.

Herchealer is stationed in Ft. Walton Beach. Great place to be assigned.

Representing Daytona Beach

Im here in daytona beach

these forums are complicated

Where in Daytona Beach. I live off A1A in Ormond by the Sea.

By the way Welcome to Armorama!!

I live really close to basically the port orange city center

By Dunlawton? It is nice to see some one from my neighborhood.

same here is there any model clubs around here any ways

Used to have one with Hobby Town USA but not anymore. Wished that there was one.

I might be moving to the Orlando area soon . Is there a hobby shop in the Winter Park area Or do you shop online Please advise.
Thanking you in advance

I buy on line most of teh time. WE have a member or two who live in the Orlando area.

SK2 - I live in Lake Mary which is about 15 minutes or less from winter park. I know there is one in Sanford called Hover Hobbies and Superior Hobbies in Casselberry. I have not been to either one yet but I am pretty sure both sell kits.

Stationed in Brooksville Just north of Tampa

we drive to Orlando and go to Colonial Photo and Hobbies

I was thinking of going to Colonial Photo and Hobby to get a lens for my new camera but I really am only interested in figures and I doubt they have them or anyone in central florida for that matter.

Thanks for the info .I will put it to good use.

Merritt Island, FL

Blake, if you go to Colonial, drive 15 minutes (w/traffic) further East on 50 to Sci Fi City. They are on the right. While you won't find 1/35 scale, you'll find lots of resin, vinyl, garage kits, Warhammer, etc. They also have an extensive offering of Osprey books.

As far as figures go in Central FLorida, outside of DML or Tamiya, there are none. Your best bet, (and I hate this) is to mail order.

If you want to take a day and hit some really top notch shops that carry alot of plastic, Spare Time Hobbies in Cocoa and North Side Hobbies in Melbourne are floor to ceiling kits. Two of probobly the best LHS's I've been in, in a long time.

Colonial is good for paint. But is a poser compared to the other two when it comes to kits.

Anyone know a place in CF that sells Vallejo paint? I also hate going though the internet / mailorder.
