Exclamation Nobi

Good morning. I have received an email from our good friend Nobi in Thailand. He is now in the hospital with the flu. He has been struggling with his country's many problems now for almost a year.

In times such as this we need to remember the great designers that we have and that without them we would have no hobby.

Nobi has given so much to this hobby. Most of his 1/100 kits are free. Like all the other designers the prices on his other works are ridiculously low. If you want to continue to enjoy his work please find it in your heart to send him at least a Get Well email. Even better pry open your wallets and reach inside to your Paypal card and send him an expression of your gratitude.

[email protected]

These are all the Nobi kits I have built in the past year. I still have many more than I look forward to build.

Indeed well spoken.
Nobi is an inspiration for me. His models are simple yet detailed and realistic. This encouraged me to add more details and refinements to my own designs.

So Nobi,
Courage and a speedy recovery. Know that we, from all around the globe, care for each other.

Bruno

Totally agree.


I love Nobi's kit and he has always been extremely accommodating. All the best to him for a speedy recovery, and health and happiness to him in 2019.


Gary


PS. Michael, some great looking birds. Very well done.
