  1. Wishing all a very Happy Thanksgiving Peter
  2. Mike Sounds fantastic. How many mote years to retirement, as I'm just about there now Peter
  3. Thanks martin, just did and it is a gold mine. Peter
  4. MIkew Custom built is expensive but by far the best way as you will have what you want and won't have to settle. I started out looking for used display cases but they are hard to find and unless they are local, shipping is a nightmare. I gave up and bought mine from a company in Texas and shipping to New York was very expensive, a few parts were damaged in shipping and had to be replaced and of course, I had to assemble it. Peter
  5. MIke Yikes, you're going to need a small hanger with glass doors! My glass display case is 20 inches deep, 6ft tall and 4 ft wide and it's a snug fit for my Mossie. I bought the same display case as Brian and his B-25 is a about as bit as this size display case will accommodate. Peter
  6. I think I set a record for the most amount of starts and only a few finishes this year. Hopefully over the winter, I'll be able to go back and clean some of the SOD up. Peter
  7. Martin You're the man! Peter
  8. Might just have to start building some 1/144 scale kits, so I can actually build up the secret model fund for all the goodies I want. With each new announcement, my list changes and changes. After Aifix’s announcement of their 1/24 Hellcat coming this summer, my full concentration has been on this Iron Works Gang Cat. I’ve even thought about buying again another 1/24 Airfix Tiffy with the bubble canopy but finding one at a reasonable price has become frustrating hunt. Peter
  9. Just on the chance a new 32nd scale kit is on the way: Swing them wings: F-14 Tomcat Peter
  10. It’s pretty simple as to why: if it sells, keep on the gravy train. We’re passionate on which kits we buy and build. Manufacturers for the most part are not passionate about a subject - their monivation is simply business: profit. Peter
  11. Ron Pretty neat idea. If I have to mask over a decal,I first mask with Tamiya tape - sticky side up and then a very sim bit of Tamiya tape with the sticky side down but only on the painted surface and the balance of the mask is just a solid barrier. Nearly every time in the past when I tried to carefully mask over a sealed decal, I've had the same heartbreak as Danny. Peter
  12. Gaz Excellent point and example. I would have never thought of that Keep 'em comin Peter
  13. John Nice work on the front office. Sure is looking good Keep 'em comin Peter
  14. I’m thinking Smitty is right: nothing new again in 32nd scale again. Maybe next year Peter
  15. Danny Been there, done that and jeroen's advice is the right way to go. Fingers crossed and I'm sure Eduard will come flying through Peter
  16. Dave Beautiful work . Fit, finish and weathering are perfectly done Peter
  17. John Your magic is underway As always - nice start on the first air brush work Keep ‘em comin Peter
  18. Tony Holy Cow .. awesome Fokker and so glad she wound up on your bench! Beautiful build Peter
  19. Frank Outstanding work. Just take your time and so happy your are sharing the journey Keep ‘em comin Peter
  20. Carl Seatbelts and harness look mighty good and looking good all buttoned up. Keep ‘em Peter
