    Yes, I bought mine (some time ago, admittedly) from HPH’s e-store. HTH Hubert

    AFAIK, the best glue for resin is HPH’s two-components epoxy glue. Hubert

    The preorders for the second batch of the Viggen, and the Learjet have just opened ! I placed mine for the Learjet . Delivery advertised as February 2022. Hubert

    Well deserved award ! Fantastic ! Hubert

    So, I’m back home ! Is it done yet ? Hubert the relentful 🥷

    Kai, I’ll be back home on thursday evening. Now your goal is set, my friend ! Hubert (🦆 )

    Soo … it’s not done yet ? Hubert, in the Bordeaux area, substituting popcorn by foie gras, duck confit and red wine …

    In which case they are in the same ballpark as a Tamiya Phantom with all the bells and whistles to make it an up-to-date 1/32 replica. Hubert

    Seeing one build thread out of 500 produced sounds about right. I skipped the Viggen, but got myself registered on the preorder list for the Learjet and Skyrocket Hubert

    And you forget all the new products coming from Central and Eastern Europe … Can you imagine Roden just announced the release of an icon among the icons, a Greyhound bus ? Hubert

    Amazing as usual ! Hubert

    Hopefully, they will have learnt from their own (bitter) experience: that you need a great dose of passion and commitment to bring world class subjects to the market. But also that passion must not go to the point that you have a lame duck already before the launch (Gotha UWD anyone ?) or that the commitment to ultimate detailing will bring your costs far beyond the point where you can expect a reasonable Return on Investment («Ultimate » Lancaster anyone ?) If the learnings are here, then we may well see a « mainstream » WWII subject, even if I would personally much prefer … say a Lockheed Vega in 1/32, rather than a P-51 B … And, in all honesty, they may also find that 1/48 generates far less developments costs and greater volumes than 1/32 (yeahh, I know Burn the Heretic ! I’ll even supply the matches ) Anyway, out with my ramblings, and I wish Kotare all the best. (They could even have chosen a duck rather than a kingfisher for a name IMHO) Hubert

    Although I am flattered that you confuse me with a talent like Cees, Peter, let’s give back to Cesar what belongs to Cesar Hubert

    Hey ! Don’t go contradicting good intentions ! Hubert PS: Kai, is it done yet ?

    Popcorn is just ON TOP of Pasteis de Nata, Pudim and Molotov, Rob (not to mention leitao or cataplana) ... Hubert
  18. HubertB
    Is it done yet ? (I picked-up 10 Kgs following your build and have now exhausted the Portuguese popcorn production capacities ) Hubert

    I almost missed the start of your WIP thread before seeing it here ! You’re definitely a fast builder, Mike, and the result is, per your usual, stunning Hubert

    I was about to argue the same. If the goal is broad coverage, the cheap knockoffs you find on EBay and other sites are good enough in most cases. Hubert
  21. HubertB
    +1 ! Hubert
  22. HubertB
    You’re talking about Carl’s birthday cake ? Hmmm …. yummy ! Hubert
  23. HubertB
    Sooooo … Is it done now ? Hubert
  24. HubertB
    Now that you have mastered the vocabulary of rigging, chapter and verse, how about a DH-2 or RE-8 ? Stunning result with the DR-1 is the other well deserved expletive ! Hubert

    Not being as smart as a certain LSP member, I found myself started on the Silhouette with less than an afternoon’s learning curve (and the task was to enlarge to 1/32 and make masks from the pic of 1/48 decals for a North Korean Mig 15 for Martin ) I later found out that, if you are using another CAD software, then the (for extra $) « pro » Silhouette software, that allows the import of vector files is a great plus. In short, never regretted this buy Hubert
