Nice work Kevin😀

Nice job John😀

Got this today.......Despite coming from Amazon, this model's box actually Was Not delivered damaged😀 A miracle? A milestone? Call it what you will.......I'm very pleased with Amazon for a change. From Tamiya, Their Suzuki GSX1100S KATANA In 1/6 scale.

I built a few in my younger modeling days.......I'm replacing some that I built. The finished models can be a bit fragile and all my old ones are gone. I have a couple of the 1/12 kits in my stash and they are probably a better choice for displaying. I've looked at their latest Honda Africa in 1/6 . It looks like an amazing kit😀

This came today.....It's Tamiya's Honda CB 750F in 1/6 scale. (16020)😀 Needless to say the box was damaged; Badly packaged and carelessly shipped . The contents, however are just fine .

Yes, I like looking at what the "guest" viewers are looking at after looking at the newest posts.......You can find good stuff that way😀

Can anyone inform me what the difference between the white label Tamiya cement is compared to the Extra thin We are all familiar with, and why isn't the white label, or for that matter their ABS cement sold in the U.S. ? Just Curious🤔

Well done😀

What?.......Didn't anyone think of this one? The beautiful F-86 Sabre. One of these is based at Waukegan airport and I see it on occasion........ Once , while driving on Green Bay road by the airport, I saw it cross the road about 30 feet above the truck ahead of me.

Unbounded Coolness😀

Started this little Tamiya H39 last September....... Hard to believe😀 Very nice little kit. Added Friulmodel tracks. Decided to leave off the provided tow chains....they just looked too big I used my H&S Infinity 2024 for the camouflage. Works great, but I need more practice.

I must consider the squirrel set. A big fan of Squirrels, I've been feeding them for months, but I think I'll hold off until a 1/6 or larger scale version is offered😀 Here's a pic of one of my friends...... He takes walnut halves from my hands😀

A couple of my engines....... The red engine needed repairs to the governor. The factory sent the parts free of charge. Adjustments were made to the governor after the parts were replaced. The tabletop enhances the hits of this hit / miss engine and the engine is hopping around a bit. VID_20260321_120947.mp4 VID_20260321_121308.mp4

Fantastic build😀

Looking Great Rob😀

Tamiya extra thin or their airbrush thinner cleans up Ca glue from tools and such. I use it to clean my CA applicators.😀

Nice Work Carl!😀

Wow! The rigging on that tail is amazing👍

Thanks Carl😀 I have A Bunch of Iwatas as well. I recently got a couple of Harder & Steenbecks as well but I haven't been able to use them yet. I plan to use this thing to paint the large-scale motorcycle kits I have. I recently used my Iwata HP-C+ to put down the primer and base coat on a Tamiya H-39 tank I started months ago.....worked flawlessly as usual.

I've been considering buying this for some time...... It's Iwata's Vault Kustom CS. This is an adaptation of their Eclipse series with a enlarged color cup capable of holding 1/2 ounce (15ml) of paint and modifications to the handle to improve access to the chucking nut and needle. I was mostly interested in the larger capacity as I have a few very large models in 1/16 scale in my stash. It has a .35 mm needle and can be easily be swapped out. to .50 mm. Here's another pic. It also includes an air filter/water trap thing. .....Might be useful😀 A close-up of the freakish color cup😀 Tail end shot.....needle chuck nut. The needle can be removed without disassembly😀 Anyway, I hope someone finds this interesting or useful......

Nice work Rob😀

Thanks for the review😀 It is an odd-looking subject. In profile I can see the moniker "Tadpole" but in other aspects it does look good. An interesting subject well-executed .

My older brother bought a BMW in the 80's while stationed at Nellis AFB. He had it for many years and absolutely loved it. Later, he joined a club that sponsored long-distance tours. I'm now looking for Tamiya's R90s. Hoping to find a good one cheap. Incidentally, "Rubber Cow" was my nickname in high school.........strange that . (Just kidding😀)

Great finish Kevin😀 looks great !
