  1. No need to be sorry at all, thank you for stopping by . Honestly I spend fair amount of time browsing over schematics, electrical system, radar etc. and wasn't able to figure this one out. It is definitely hollow piece and hides something inside, antenna would be my first guess, but that doesn't go together with the schematic of electrical installation. Thank you Peter, you are way too kind. I finished the backplates on the propellers, then thinned the tips some more. Adjusted the tips of the spinners that were too pointy and coated the whole thing in NATO black, which is actually very dark grey. Because as we all know there is no pure black in the real world. Rivets and placards might follow, not sure yet.
  2. Announcement : The prize for this, or more like past few weeks...... goes .....to .....Carl. So Tamiya's mossie or rather two of them will travel to GTA . Why two, because he has two sons and it seems just right. PS: Carl could you please text me your address Cheers M.

  10. Thanks for the heads up Scott, I was actually thinking about some product for leather. Also do you guys have any good suggestion for ABS trim conditioner ?
  11. I see, that makes sense. It is not really visible from the picture. She's gonna look sweet.
  12. I don't know if the extra work related to the addition of those brass blast tubes it really necessary ? Plastic pieces seems to provide the same look.
  13. Hi Jeff, I didn't make it to Carzilla yet, but in the meanwhile I ordered this up on Evilbay https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Chemical-Guys-HOL-101-JetSeal-109-5050-Paste-Wax-Ultimate-Shine-Protect/182298446652?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
  14. How did this thread got to K-36 ? LOL I am really excited to see all the little changes you are implementing to this already beautiful kit Ernie. Fist cut is the scariest then everything goes red and...wait...what am I talking about? Cheers M.
  15. He he , thanks Jeff. Here is my buddie's California Special GT, just a little teaser for Mike
  16. Nicey, I didn't know that Mike. Any particular trim, colour that you have in mind. Boss 302 perhaps?
  17. It's not me it was my wonderful wife, she had it soldered in seconds, I did the easy part....quality control LOL ...was thinning the prop blades and scribing the spinners, cutting the back plates, more tomorrow
  18. Looks pretty comfortable on my screen Ernie. Small step for Ernest, a giant leap for the man kind.... The real deal looks like something you can find at the end of the green mile
