Repost of pics. I noticed after first posting these that the interior green came out too yellow in the photos so I fixed that and now have 'em re-posted.

I sure do appreciate your offer but I think I'll just wait a little while longer.

I still haven't received either order of the cowlings! Unbelievable! One guy gave me a excuse that just as they were preparing the order they found something "wrong" with the cowlings so had to order more from their vendor. Lame! The other guy has not responded to my emails so it looks like I'll have to file another PayPal claim. More unbelievable!!

Thanks Harv.

Just about finished with the cockpit. Barracuda seat and side walls.

Looks good! Nice work.

I still haven't received the cowlings from seller "perrysmart" on ebay. It shows shipped but where they are now is anybody's guess. Soooo I ordered another set from a different seller. We shall see how that works out. If I wind up with 2 sets that's okay since I have a glass-nosed version also.

I look forward to seeing this one built up. I know it will be a beauty!

Was finally able to get a nice warm shower! Pure bliss!!!

Whether or not I can get a shower today I still have to go to the grocery store. I doubt I'd be the only smelly one there!

A little bit at last. Outdoor taps flowing fairly well but inside just a trickle. I hope it picks up soon so I can take a shower!!!!!

I've used Tamiya kit decals many times. I would prefer them to be a bit thinner but they are still usable.

The model will represent his 1st a/c without the white background to the lettering on the nose.

I plan to use the kit decals although I do have some after market ones which are for his later markings.

Agreed! LOL

The 1st photo sent back from the new Mars probe.

Both style canopies preferred but I wouldn't be upset if it only had the framed canopy. Would be a great addition for the Tamiya 1/32 "D"s.

LOL Seems that way! I'm glad you like the Lanc! Thanks. Hmmmm.....maybe I ought to pick up a Trumpeter P-51B.

LOL It's mostly runoff from my roof.

Very little freezing rain but a lot of snow and sleet. It's starting to thaw just a little but it'll be a while before it's gone. We're still getting night time lows in the teens which isn't helping! Still no water due to broken city mains, etc. As my youngest son used to say when he was very little and we'd try to feed him some baby food he didn't like "Can't like it!"

My front steps.

Wouldn't you know it. As soon as I finish my old Tamiya Lanc HK does this. LOL That's okay though, the Hasegawa kit is a good kit and I enjoyed the build.

Yep, I suppose so Peter.

Things are supposed to get better here tomorrow although the low tonight and tomorrow night is forecast as 16. Still too damn cold! At least I too have lights and heat, just NO FRIGGIN' WATER. And due to all the snow on my steps that has turned into 3" thick ice sheets I can't go out past my porch. Now they are telling us we should have SOME water by Sunday. Give us a break already!!!!

Thanks Peter. Unfortunately that will not work.
