Thanks Henk, that website looks fairly promising, and shipping is something that I can swallow.

Other than the crappy $20 Walmart model kits I used to build when I was young, the only type I've worked with is Tamiya. I'm assuming Fujimi isn't too far off the mark?

Also, i'm thinking about cheap alternatives to display cases. Basically all I want is a little wooden base (which I could varnish myself for that matter) and a glass box to sit over top of the model. I suppose to be most economical (university student here ) I'd be better off just buying some materials and fashioning something myself, no?
