  1. Probably the only cockpit that shows less than a 109 cockpit.
  2. Rob, Great job on the corsair. I like the weathering. I actually like it more than those birds modelled with so much zinc chromate yellow showing that you're distracted from the beauty of the plane itself. Kudos! The subtle directional airflow weathering over the wings is a great, subtle addition. The finishing steps... They are exhausting, I agree. Trying to add tiny bits without putting glue blobs over your carefully manicured finish... maneuvering the kit around hopefully without knocking off protrusions or damaging the paint... it wears you out. And then the pilot... That's one of the reasons I try to do the crew before I finish the plane...
  3. That looks awesome, Peter. The top wing decals kinda throw me... they seem so light.
  4. Nice start, Chris! I did a Voodoo back in 1978. No picture available... sorry.
  5. I have 11 years to go... to reach the state retirement age... and to pay off my mortgage. I may still keep working after... I'm not very social... if I don;t have friends at work, I won;t have friends at all.
  6. Meanwhile... the French are still playing soccer...
  7. slapping some plastic together... maybe paint tomorrow after work. Maybe not...
  8. Hard to see indeed. Even with my glasses on, many of the rivet holes are so tiny. But to risk going over them again is an invitation to disaster.
  9. Those dive flaps look pretty awesome, Ernie. I wonder if they contributed much drag to the wing when they were retracted.
  10. Nice pit, John.
  11. No, Peter. All are recessed. Just a hole size difference. Unfortunately, rivet wheels aren't the best tool in the world to replicate rivets.
  12. Riveting is not riveting... if ya catch my drift...
  13. Mind... Blown!
  14. Thank you, Santa Clunk!
  15. Great job! Beautiful looking build!
  16. Beautiful Job, Sasha! Really love that paint job and weathering to bring it all alive.
  17. Great gift! You are a thoughtful guy! Well done and happy holidays!
  18. Not this time... the hens were doing all of the work while I was drinking screwdrivers.
  19. Merry Christmas MoFo's!
  20. I won't bore you with the details... but it's warm enough to have the air conditioning on.
  21. Thanks, Buddy! Merry Christmas to you, too.
