  1. Thanks for that! I had thought that it was a newer kit also. I guess I'll just have to build both and then compare, lol!! They both certainly have beautifully classic lines.
  2. Ben I'd like to see a review on the Revell 4704 Supermarine Spitfire Mk 22/24 1/32 Scale Plastic Model Kit. I've fallen in love with that kit but haven't purchased it yet.
  3. I'm with the rest of the group! I'd love to see more true Russian aircraft in 1/32. Also the Italians and French flew some great looking equipment too! The more the merrier I say! I mean I have a stash to build, oh my Lord I need help, lol!!
  4. Wow those are all decals, lol!!! I would have been nuts after doing that!!! So the future spray failed?? Let's Skype in the AM tomorrow morning??
  5. Rick my first experience with resin aftermarket parts was with my current Ju88 build and I must say I wasn't impressed!! the nose cone was alright but needed a great deal of sanding and I can't even talk about the belly gondola!!! I was awful!! Of course I have to factor in my inexperience on the subject of resin and working with it but I would shy away from it in the future.
  6. Very very very very informative review!!!
  7. Super job!! Love the tail feathers!!
  8. Amazing craftsmanship!!! I'm speechless!!! I've totally enjoyed following your build!
  9. LOL Wayne! Is there any cure or hope???
  10. Somebody please keep me away from eBay!!! Won another bid for $19.52 plus $6.00 shipping for this factory sealed Revell 1/32 Hawker Hunter FGA9!!
  11. I think drag was secondary to being blown out of the sky by friendly fire. I wonder how much that happened??
  12. Freaking outstanding work Steve. The hull, tracks, turret and wonderful brass work looks absolutely brilliant! I'm considering building a Tamiya 1/35 German Panther Medium Tank along with a Revell 1/32 P38J in full D-Day dress for the Beaches to Berlin build but still a bit wary of those tracks. I guess I'll see how in goes. Many on LSM have said the Tamiya is a good first time armor build for me. Excited to start it soon.
  13. Amazing job my friend and great recovery from the great melting disaster, lol!!! Talk to you on Skype this week?
  14. I agree I need to visit another Beaufighter build, lol! Love the idea of hand brushing the D-Day stripes as you are right they didn't always do a neat job of them and most were hastily painted. I look forward to watching your progress!
  15. Great start and will look forward to following your build!
  16. Hi Cees. Don't know how I missed your Beaufighter build. It's really coming along well! I built one just before joining LSM. It was the last of my spray can, Tester Glue Tube models, lol! Had a terrible time with the old decals as these kits are 30 year old plus vintage Revell kits. Seeing your build makes me want to revisit a Beaufighter build using my vastly improved skills! Here's a picture over-spray and all, lol!!
  17. Welcome to the forums. Sorry to read about your terrible loss. Will be watching your build with interest. By the way great idea to raise funds for charity. Take care and happy modeling.
  18. I've used Vallejo water base weathering washes with go success so far. The Ju88 will be the first build where I will seal with Future before applying decals and then seal again afterwards finally using Tester Matt finish which I'm told works very well. I didn't do this on the Bf110 and because it was painted matt black the decals on the fuselage had a slight smoky look after they dried. All a learning curve, lol!!
  19. That's a fantastic idea Paul. I have a 1/72 kit that would be perfect for that. LOL I would have never thought of that. Thanks again.
  20. Yay my first addition of Aces High Magazine is here!!!
  21. Beautiful job. What a classic aircraft!
  22. Fantastic Cees! Love the look. I have a Revell Hawker Typhoon that I'm looking forward to building this year so you've given my some inspiration! Ralph.
  23. Looking good Mike. The cockpit layout and the detail is excellent!
