Jeff Wonderful progress and looking mighty good. Speed isn't what is important but rather enjoying time spent at the bench with the B-24. Keep 'em comin Peter

Jeroen Awesome project and I'll be sitting right next to Harv enjoying the build from start to finish and learning as you go. Keep 'em comin Peter

Harv It's pretty tough to keep us old geezer down. So glad the surgery went well and you will be home faster then you think. You and Bev are in my prayers and toughts Peter

Thanks Guys. since coming back and starting to build again, both my physical and mental outlook and progress has been so much more positive. A few of the side effects from the chemo were walking issues and the use of my hands for: not shaking but unable to build or use an airbrush. Since starting the Sufa a few weeks ago, not only am I walking better but I've regained the use of my hands and steadiness. I actually did some air brushing yesterday, which two weeks ago, I was completely incapable of doing. I'm just about done making my paint booth and this coming week will start posting my build thread. Just taking a while to remember how to do a build thread and post photos. I'm getting there and almost back in the s addle. I have all my friend to gratefully thank for helping me through this trying and scary time. Peter

Rowdy Holy Cow, your build just knocked me out. Detailing and paint work is exceptional. Awesome work. I couldn't help but notice you used thee Rosie Riveter for the rivet work. I have the most needed ones for 32nd scale, single row and they are top notch. Keep 'em comin Peter

John Isn't that always the way? Terrific work on the Lancaster. Keep 'em comin Peter

Phil One awesome Phantom ... beautiful finish and work. I have all the ZM Phantoms and the F-4S is well underway and almost ready for priming. With the on coming Tamiya F-4B, except for wishing for 32nd versions from ZM and Tamiya (which will never happen), I'm a happy camper.. Decal wise, silvering under the clear film is trapped air between the paint and the decal carrier film, from the paint or clear gloss not being very smooth. ZM's decals are Cartograph and the best of the best. Clear gloss is not needed at all to decal if the paint is smooth. I've played around with the Tamiya new Mustang (my brother is a car builder) and he was blow away with the finish and decals - no clear gloss at all until after decaling. After the paint work was done and really dry, I used Wet & Dry grits of 3000, 8000, 12,000 and the paint was smooth as a baby's rear end and the decals went down perfectly and we're talking Tamiya kit decals. Clear gloss on top and repeat the process and then the finish of your choice: gloss, semi gloss, semi matte or matte. Takes a bit longer but the decal go down flawlessly and the final finish is perfect very time. For my aircraft builds, I skip the polishing of the paint, apply a good gloss - two coats at a minimum, let dry and polish. You will be amazed at at the finish. Just my two cents worth - hope this helps.

Mark Gorgeous Lotus. Back in he day I was a big Senna fan. Peter

Hi guys Been out of the loop for a long time but I have followed the WNW saga. I was on their web site a few days ago and it's up and running but they aren't shipping orders due to the pandemic. Not sure if they are out of business for good, just keeping their website up and running or what the latest scoop is. Just corious Thanks Peter

Carl ... can't believe you're doing a set set of tracks with individual links -talk about dedication to a build. Looking fantastic Keep 'em comin Peter
