  1. Good grief! How are you going to get it out of the room?? Great update.
  2. I just LOVE what you're doing in this Jeroen... Great looking pit and the replacement bits and pieces are just right... It does make you wonder whether Meng actually DID have this PE set in mind when they produced their Komet. Get cracking then, James' build is only a fraction ahead now.
  3. First WOW! Secondly welcome aboard The S.S. LSM! I love what you've done with this Buffalo - the interior is extraordinary. Fantastic attention to detail.
  4. Nicely done Jim .. it's definitely worth it as, from what I can see, the rest of the kit is actually quite sweet.
  5. [quote But a Navy-plane? a catapult-bar! :) !!!
  6. PM inbound!
  7. Nice choice .. I think swirls would spoil it anyway
  8. Great job Francisco. Are the prizes (i.e. the Arrow Wolf Sponsors Prize) being offered for this GB or another you're thinking of? Cheers Grant
  9. Great review Oh great God of Reviewers !! Seriously though, I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and also enjoyed seeing the component parts laid bare for a change so that comparisons to ZM's P-51D or other scale and brands can be made. I know this is expensive but it's one of those once or twice in a lifetime acquisitions that you know you are going to have to make. I was really looking forward to this having known about them for some time now so, thank you for your hard work getting IMCTH to work with us. I can't wait to see one in built form (by you or our very own LSM Member Paul Anderson who, I happen to know, has this in his stash). I'm absolutely beside myself in anticipation of a Bf109F which I believe is in the works too !!
  10. Nice - I love these "quirky" individual topics. Great find Francisco.
  11. It wonderful to see you and the WnW Fans here - this is really going to be spectacular!.
  12. Very nice! Love the chipping etc (oh! and the National Emblem it's sitting on too - nice and simple, but effective).
  13. I've bought from Hobby Link Japan and would have no problem buying from them again. The items arrived in double quick time and very well packaged as well. The company is very efficient, very honourable and extremely well respected globally and I'd recommend them without hesitation.
  14. Well, with the best intentions I really want to Start and/or Finish the two 1:16th kits I have in the pile: i.e. 1) The "Partwork" 1:16th Mitsubishi A6M Zero 2) The 1:16th Hasegawa Sopwith Camel Like I said, this is with the best of intentions!
  15. Hi Jim, I'm not based in the USA but I believe a lot of guys use Squadron, here's a link to their 1:16th filter search - http://www.squadron.com/military-model-kits-s/1834.htm?searching=Y&sort=3&cat=1834&show=18&page=1&f-1:16=2828 You might even find it cheaper to look on some of the Japanese sites and also for other brands than just Trumpeter - I don't know for sure but I've read of the guys from our Ex-Colony ( ) buying from there; Hobby Link Japan springs to mind.

  16. Love the sig. Steven! All four with beautiful spoked wheels. Fabulous.
  17. The words "secretive" and "swine" keep running through my mind (kidding) Man you know how to a kit together! I have no idea where you find the time what with all the other projects you have on hand at the moment - I mean, you must be very busy putting together / painting a two engined WW1 bomber at the moment too (lmao!). Fantastic work Dave, as I said - you really know how to build a model - utterly amazing.
  18. Errr, WOW! I think you should invest in a band saw !! It seems no plastic is safe when your around
  19. Nice start on the 'pit Jeroen, considering that PE set is for the Hasegawa Komet it shouldn't be too long before they release a version for the Meng kit. I like the blackened look to the metal (or did you pre-paint it??).
  20. Wow, that's nice Dave .... great choice of scheme, unusual to say the least. Great job sir.
  21. Dear Lord you're tight lipped!, you swine !! Gorgeous looking E.1 Dave, stunning! - I love the weathering underneath... Gorgeous.
  22. Me too! I could kick myself for not doing it the last time around. I will definitely go the Mac route as soon as I can, after all I have an iPhone and an iPad which talk to each other (and include my Windows laptop begrudgingly !!) so I ought to complete the circle.
  23. I hate Window 8 anyway .. it's designed for touch screens and adapted for PC's and laptops ... hopeless in my opinion.
  24. Well, I'm convinced ... that looks really nice Pomi, very nice indeed! (I do like the lines of the 410, I must admit).
