Finally some progress to show. I buggered an IP decal, so I bought the Quinta Studios set. I was particularly pleased with their harnesses. I'm headed to Florida for the month of March. I'm bringing this kit with me, but I don't know how much I'll get done.
-
Thanks for the offer, Martin. I wonder what language would airframe stencils be on a Czech Mossie...
-
Rob, please don't let my entry deter you! There's no guarantee that I'll finish this thing on time. There is a ton of plastic stuffed into that box; I've done a bit of painting, but nothing worthwhile to show for it just yet.
-
There is no local supplier for Mr. Color paints near me. I order from Burbank's House of Hobbies; they almost always have the colors I need in stock, and they're usually delivered within four days.
-
Obligatory box cover... I will be building the Mossie mostly OOB. The only aftermarket to date is a set of stencils; I have a set of Master Model gun barrels on order. I may decide on some HGW harnesses. I'll be using kit markings.

What did you find under the Christmas tree?
Bill_S replied to Martinnfb's topic in General Discussion
I'm a little late to the game here; went into the hospital New Years Eve with chest pain. I spent three days there; even with a stress test they found nothing and sent me home. It turns out I got a false negative on the stress test - I had an ambulance ride two days later. Three stents, and I'm on the road to recovery. Not a good way to start 2024. Santa, though, was pretty good to me: My new favorite shirt A new tool. I'm not sure where I saw this - maybe I'll do a review when I get a chance. And a couple of kits. I hope to enter one into the Group Build. -

VERY nicely done! I'll be referencing this build if/when I get around to building mine. -
Wishing all of LSM a VERY Happy Nee Year!!!

My thanks to all of you. Happy New Year! -
I stopped at my LHS today...

The Military Museum Calgary needs your help
Bill_S replied to Martinnfb's topic in General Discussion
I'm in, Martin! -
Peter, Airscale is VERY good about getting their items shipped to the US. I normally get them within a week.

This arrived yesterday!

You need Imelda Marcos' shoe closet! -
Hasegawa 1/32 Spitfire Mk V Malta
Bill_S replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Is this the Mk VB, John? The one with the pointy wing tips? If so, I've got one here that I could scavenge them from. -
what's on your to buy list for 2023 (newly released kits only)
Bill_S replied to npb748r's topic in Modelling Discussion
I just got an email... the Z-M FW-190 starts shipping October 7th! -
I agree, Ernie! I have a few Merlin powered things in the stash...
-
Wow, Ernie. When you said he took a fall, I figured it was a broken leg or hip; this is far more serious. I'm pulling for Harv. Thanks for keeping us in the loop.
-
A couple of days without an update had me worried. Is Harv home, or still in the hospital?
-
Hoping for a speedy recovery for you, Harv. That'll teach you to wear your high heels on the stairs!

New airscale Pro range - 1/32 TBD Devastator
Bill_S replied to airscale's topic in Modelling Discussion
A set of accurate stencils for this plane would be most welcome! -
I remember magazines like that!
-
I wonder if FB has some algorithm that searches out the shape of the swastika. If that's the case, what would it do with Finnish insignia?
-
This just arrived from Peter at Airscale. It seems to be missing one of the part #36 (upper right hand corner of PE fret). Has anyone inspected theirs?
