    No recommendations? I find it basically impossible to believe that no one in Houston has never had a model built by a pro yet then again nothing surprises me anymore. If someone suddenly remembers or hears something I kindly ask that you just send me a PM.

    Peace

    Check in with the Hobby Shop in Bellaire, on Chimney Rock...

    Bunch of old guys hang out in the back building R/C helicpoters, they will know someone....

    I have found rare Ferrari diecast kits in there, in the past..

    Dennis Koleber is located in Murphy,Texas. http://www.denniskoleber.com/ Not sure how close he is to Houston. He was, perhaps still is, capable of building a model to meet your quality expectations. Would suggest you contact him directly to explain exactly what you're looking for but, be prepaired to spend many $$$$$$$.

    Hope this helps,

    Not Houston, but in DFW Brian Yingling has pro build experience. Images of his work are on google...

    Thanks for the lead. I still want to take Alan's advice and stop by the Hobby Shop in Bellaire and I have yet to stop by that Hobby World by my house. There is a builder in Colorado who I had spoken with about 1yr ago and has won trophies at the Nationals so I might go with him after I see some of his work and we workout all the details.
