Just don't let Erik around your SWMBO's!! He'll get you guys sleeping on the couch for eeffin' ever!!!

Busy busy busy aren't we?

It seems that Trumpeter has an "A" team and a "C" team. When they release something nice, it's nice. When it's not.....it's bad. They got off to a bad start with their large scale jets with the exaggeration of the rivet detail and the world has not forgotten about it. They also couldn't seem to get the nose shapes right, i.e. F-100 and A-7, even though there are a bazillion, that's a lot, reference photo's and static survivors everywhere. Their saving grace was that they were releasing kits of items that builders wanted but no one was listening. And the after market companies have been busy ever since.

Welcome Ralph. OK....party's over. Get to work!!!!

Very nicely done. Wash is perfect.

You'd have to change out the boots also. The leggings are different.

Not a bad price for AM that will make a big difference.

You got that right. The −1A was suppose to be out last May/June. Now their talking November for reasons unknown.

I retract my statement about it being a tail sitter.

Give that a whirl next time. Can't even remember what started this now. Getting older sucks.

In fact, the 1/35 scale would work better. Cheap and lots of them out there to cut and shape to your needs. Most 1/35 figures seem to scale out to 6' tall when in fact the average height of an American soldier in WWII was closer to the 5'7 ish area. So it would be a perfect fit for your 32nd scale dio.

That would actually work Arno. If you want to be more precise, start Goggling 54mm US figures as thats the size of 32nd scale.

That's friggin' funny Erik.

MD 20/20. That brought back some fuzzy memories.

Need to keep Mikesters Pop in your thoughts. He lives in Napa, California. Got rocked pretty hard by an 6+ earthquake. He is reported to be OK but inside of house is trashed. Having lived through 4 major earthquakes myself, its a screwed feeling.

NICE!!!!!! Sprue Brothers sold theirs out in a couple of days.

Tell SWMBO something was lost in translation. What you get for lettin' dem dang fahahneers into your house. Erik....if there was ever a time to be speaking Dutch to your son....that was it!!

Thanks for sending me down memory lane.

Your panel shading with those Alcads must be commended. Nice job. About there.

Doing great work on that old bird. I do believe those mg's we're 20mm though.

Great "plumbing work".

Bet this thing won't be a "tail sitter".

Lot of creative leeway in making wrecks. I always enjoy it.

Lot of resin for a "conversion" set. Seen a couple of Paul Fishers kits and am always amazed.

​Great to meet people you usually only have a social media relationship with.
