Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son has a love for scale modeling, there are plenty of great gift ideas you could consider for him this Christmas season. Here are my top picks:

1. New Models: If your son is an avid scale modeler, chances are he’d love some new models to work on. You could find out what kind of models he’s interested in and get him one or two new kits. Or, better yet, buy him a subscription to a model magazine, so he’ll get something new and interesting to work on each month.

2. Quality Modeling Tools: There are a lot of tools and supplies that can make scale modeling easier, so why not upgrade his toolkit? Look for high-quality modeling tools, such as precision knives, tweezers, or a glue gun, or perhaps a painting kit. A quality cutting mat is always a useful tool as well.

3. Display Case: After putting in all that effort with a model, a display case would be the perfect addition to showcase his finished product. A display case can protect and display his best models in style.

4. Modeling Book or Magazine: A good modelling guidebook or magazine could prove to be a useful investment for your son's hobby. A scale modeler like him will always need inspiration and tips to improve their work. Choose a highly recommended modelling publication that has articles on modeling techniques, in-depth model articles and plenty of photos.

5. Model Paints and Decals: Each model is unique, and with the variety of paints and decals available, it is possible to add a distinct flair to a specific model. So, pick up a range of paints and decals from his favorite brands.

In summary, your son’s love for scale modeling gives you a lot of options for Christmas gifts. By gifting him these supplies, tools, and informative magazines, you’ll be fueling his hobby and passion for a long time.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
