C'mon... in 6 years I saw at least two!

It really came out in 66?? Holy cow...same year as I was born. I must have been somewhere between 10 and 13 when I saw it...

wow!

I don't believe that any machine will become self-aware. But I can see that the arms race continues.

Dang, I think I joined the wrong service!! Coulda used more hot WM's that's for sure.

Whoa, wait a minute! Going armor, and not even US armor?? Who are you and what have you done with JohnB?? Cool beans, John! Looking forward to seeing you build it. Dragon kits are my number 1 preference when it comes to armor. Gaz

Well... we're all of an age here, Peter. 85% of my club members are 50+

Just my point. There is no real alternative. Back in the 70's, I remember intrepid individuals trying to reduce prices buy suggesting that 'nobody' buy fuel on the weekends. But I don't believe it ever happened.

BTW... why dem Canucks gotta keep using the name Beaver. ...you know where my mind goes....

It floats... it swims... did somebody say catapult?? I know it's not really pretty... but it was a pretty cool plane. Gaz

Well... I'd rather buy him Tamiya or Hasegawa than Playstation. Good job! Gaz

We are all to blame, really. We keep paying! Why do we keep paying? We are prisoners of our own lifestyles. Still driving that V8? Commuting a long way to work? Gotta fill up for that memorial day vacation? The government and the fuel companies would be fools to give us fair prices. We're too foolish or too imprisoned by our own lifestyles to refuse to buy it. I live 9km from work. Have often thought of biking it... but it's a pretty dangerous place at peak hour. Plus...I'm getting older. I'm no better than the rest... but complaining about fuel prices is as effective as complaining about the weather. Gaz

You are entering stage 2 of "rivet-counter-itis". Further bouts of guilt and shame could cause a permanent addiction to strenuous researching, and of course... counting rivets. I prescribed taking two "f*ckitall" three times a day on an empty stomach with at least 8 liquid OZ. of whiskey per dose. As an added measure I suggest watching the movie Stripes with Bill Murray.

Carl, I'm not sure what kind of road he was on, or even which province for that matter. All I know for certain is that he was doing 55 and the copper told him to go 60. But there have been many days in my life where I prayed for a cop like that to show up. Gaz

Very nicely done, John! I like your subtle chipping. Gaz

One of the happiest moments of my teen life was when my Grandfather told me about driving through Canada from Alaska back to Michigan where I lived. Now, Grandpa was a speed limit devotee. They're driving through Canada at the speed limit, traffic stacked up behind them. To my grandpa's great consternation, he was the one pulled over by the Canadian police. Then, he was issued a ticket for impeding the flow of traffic. Although I listened to the story with a sombre face, inside I was LMAO-ing and spiritually high-fiving the Canadian cop. Life would be so much better if more cops did this. Gaz

Great Pictures, Jeff! I'm still undecided how I'm going to go about doing the lozenge on the fuselage. Though, other things have been tying up my time. Gaz

I had hoped to retain some of the metallic look from beneath the washes on the missiles wings. But it has disappeared under three coats. This is all new terrain for me, as before I had only dirtied up some "metallic" parts before. Also, I've noticed that many things change once hit with matte finish.

That nose is amazing Martin! I can't believe how perfectly you shaped and scribed that thing! Gaz

Very nice mein Herr!

Some nice looking work, Tony. Gaz

Rob, Thank you! I don't have any copper pigments. But I could make a thin wash of Tamiya gold enamel. I;m not really sure between which two parts are contrasting too much. Thanks! Gaz

Didn't Ernst Udet have his own aviation company that built a few planes. Bet we get one of those before we get a Jenny. Jus' Sayin' Gaz

Some nice work, Harv!

Glad you're back on it, John. I'm not sure what is "bad" on your picture above. Couldja give ,me a little insight as I have this kit in my stash too. Gaz
