Waiting for my precious....... Hopefully by Christmas! Ho Ho Ho!

Carl, here I go with the age old question on interior colors. I always thought an interior green, but others use a chromate. We’re there options or am I wrong? I see RESTORATIONS done in an interior green, but who knows if that’s right or not.

Heebeejeebees man! I get the chills looking at these builds. It’s awesome! Truly! Matter of fact, I’ve shamessly downloaded any pics that might also apply to my H, especially around the waist gun areas. My radio room and flight deck is completely different, as is some of the waist gun areas.

Trumpy put the vertical stripe in the wrong spot too, from what I can see. All typical Trumpy stuff. Fixable

Truth there, Phil. Peter, did they fix they bulging hip issue or is it still present on the newest re-releases? I can only imagine these in 1/32......

Thanks! I’m just blown away by that!

Pete, judging by your work, you’ll knock this one out of the park!

2lb mono line for the Gotha’s wings. No elastic here! You need structure and strength, and when you have it, it’s as strong as as any jet model

If anyone here hasn’t seen Carl’s absolutely stunning build on this yet, check it out. I believe it’s here? If not I know it was over on TOS as well, but no matter where, check out the interior. Guys, I just reattached my jaw. It’s stunning in every way.

This will, in one swoop, correct many of the base kit’s deficiencies. YES! Martin, exactly. We know that if we want to play the Russian jet game in 1/32, we need to get creative. Letting party poopers come and mess with our minds is counterproductive. We have ICM, AMK, KHM, GWH and others giving us SUPERB Russian jets in 1/48, of which you and I each own several, but 1/32 has always been where fools or brave folks go. You, Ivan, me, and a few others have the willingness (and need) to go, no matter the cost.

I'd be eyeing it up just like that, too....

There are those days that I wish I knew even basic photoshop

or a Forger

LOLOL.. yeeeeeeeeah, maaaaan. I'd be a playaaaah...

Just make sure you keep the turnbuckles lined up with the rigging. It sounds simple, but it's so very easy to be off be a sliver and have no way to fix it when using structural rigging like I do. You end up having to just "live with the slight "oops".

Several years ago, Danny. thanks.

And yet for all the issues with HPH, they hit home runs. The Mig-15 and L-39 are great kits. I'd love the Delfin as well, but it's OOP for the time being.

I don't understand HPH. They break their backs to make world class sailplanes for the real world, yet they struggle with sometimes the simplest of details such as this. Why go through all the trouble for a half baked product? Yet I will buy and do what I need to do, I suppose. It fixes many of the ills, and I have the Zacto stuff to fix the rest. I'll basically end up with full a resin kit with some IM add ons.

AWESOMENESS! Thanks, Carl! Yep,. they're the Tamiya sprues.

Well, I was able to buy a pair of sprues on evilbay for 35 clams, so I did ok, I suppose. I expect I can doctor them up withsomePE fins and all will be well.

amazing!

Keep a sharp blade handy. What they don’t see can’t hurt them, right?

Cees, I’ve seen you’re work many times, but never this one. I’m simply blown away. Please hurry up and finish this so Wingnut Wings will release theirs? I’ll be eternally grateful, honest, I will.

The Euro Mustang sounds like a Harley on steroids. Not your typical American (or Aussie) V8 muscle car sound.

Tom I heard that the fit of the cowls is “interesting”, to say the least. Which might be why so many are built open.
