  1. This is little silly. Our local hobby store group build is almost done. I didn’t pick the camo, everyone got a randomly chosen picture. “ randomly” my …
  2. Anyway, this was to be expected, it is ZM after all. They never reach Tamiya's level and the reason for that is their philosophy. To get to the bones of the real structural design as much as possible, that comes with a price. Which is tipsy alignment, shallow surface detail and demanding assembly. Having said that, you are killing it Gary, step by step. motivational pic.
  3. I should say something cheery and positive.
  4. Thank you guys, 1/32 scale was represented only by a few planes on one table. The yellow logging truck was fully scratch built , I didn't get the chance to talk to the author, but it was impressive nevertheless . Easily my favourite build of he show. Some of the 1/72 and 1/48 scale planes were just insanely detailed. There was much more, I didn't cover, figures, sci-fi and dioramas. Good show, I didn't expect that.
  5. Thank you Carl, yes she did. She calls it Chunguss. Didn't win, but that's ok
  6. At the local show I couldn’t ignore few great deals. Probably never gonna build them, but what the heck , there’s still some space in the closet.
  7. I believe GOMB stands for gathering of the model builders. anyway it is an annual local show , organized by few guys that like to build little stuff and talk about that. I was quite impressed by the quality and attendance. Here are few shots. Hope you enjoy it Cheers Martin
  8. And I need a list of those kids involved, including their addresses and names of their pets and favourite superheroes.
  9. Awesome, congratulations 🥳
  10. You are flying through this Bill, Nice to see another 109 build. The more , the merrier
  11. Flawless work, just flawless.
  12. Thank You for the review Carl. I am curious to hear your assembly related opinion. Cheers Martin
  13. That poor thing went through hell already
  14. Another beautiful example. That's not a shadow, it is the original (dark) paint under the flare exposed by adjustment of the horizontal stabilizer. All of this is readily available underneath your fingertips. 🥷 EDIT: on the sidetone, check out the sliding window, that was passing for decades unnoticed. where are the experts now?
  15. This museum example is an extreme, flares are bent to oblivion. I wanted to react over on LSP and collected few pictures to support my argument, but withdrew afterwards. Radu open that post for a reason. Few pics of the in service planes. The fitment was actually so tight that on some examples you can often notice a rub marks after frequent adjustments. pay close attention to the scuff mark just to nail it in deeper, here is restored example with undamaged fairing, tight fit in't ?
  16. Boom, as if they were never there .
  17. Nice!!
  18. or just to insert evergreen strip in there and re-scribe the seems ? Don't meat to be smartass, just trying to brainstorm the least painful approach
