Things are coming along well from my last progress post. [Challenge & Achievement] Progress 2: Painting the Vietnamese Convenience Store (not Rolife). This time I’m making the most time-consuming part of this build- the store items.

How many brands do you recognize? While some are Vietnamese brands, it’s fun looking at the cross overs with our US store brands.

It’s tedious and I have more to go. But I’m taking my sweet time and kept myself engaged and entertained by this store’s uniqueness and quirkiness.

UPDATE: Here’s the finished product Progress 5 of 5: (Finished)The Vietnamese Store and the nostalgia it brings

Wow! It’s rare to see that Knorr and Ajinomoto are included on the goods of your store. They’re also famous condiments in my country. :laughing: Your kit is looking great and I think that it’s almost complete.

Oh wow!! There is Milo on the shelves. That is a staple in our home. I thought it was only available in Australia.
I think that coke, Pepsi, and Colgate are universal brands. And the Merino ice creams are similar to our Drumsticks and Cornetto ice creams in Australia.
This is looking great.

I’ve never heard of that. Apparently my husband was a very fussy eater and the inky thing his mother could get him to have was Milo. Him and the kids still love their Milo.
