I blame @Martinnfb...

Great looking Tomcat there Scott. Now that you've managed to tackle a couple Revell versions, you should try the Tamiya one. I wonder which is harder to put together at this point.

Getting closer.

Always great to watch you work your magic on a Corsair. I'm up to 12 Spitfires so a long want to catch up to you.

I beat you all. I had an order from Great Hobbies shipped to me. They're less than an hour's drive from me. Canada Post sent it to Vancouver, which is 3,000km away before it was sorted and sent back. Not 5 minutes ago, I got this email from Canada Post for a different package: Your parcel may be delayed Unfortunately, we made an error sorting your parcel. We’re trying to correct it, and we’re committed to delivering your parcel as requested. We’re sorry for any inconvenience or delay.

That's large scale! Thanks for sharing Maru!

Gear bay doors and missiles are on. I started with the gear bay doors. Then the Pheonix went on. Lastly, I glued the AIM-9s and AIM-7s to the wing glove pylons. Then these went onto the fuselage. I painted the tires so those will be next. Right side up.

Great work on the gear bay. I'm still plugging away at my Tomcat build as well so I'm sort of glad to not be the only one here.

Yup. It'll go nicely with the Bandai one I have. A before and after I guess.

Is it me or does that Devastator look a bit compressed?

Here kitty, kitty, kitty.

Really amazing work Ron.

Bigger than I thought. Amazing detail with the seatbelts as others have mentioned.

Really great progress there Phil. Tamiya out did themselves on the Mossie. But I think three of them will be enough for me.

Over at Britmodeler, a member posted a link that has pics of the Tomcats on the flightline during the filming. https://www.floridamemory.com/find?keywords=countdown

Here's hoping for the best Peter.

Sharp work there.

I come close to that. Back in 2007, I bought my '91 Honda Beat completely online. The car was in Vancouver, I was in Toronto. Had it shipped to me and have had it ever since. It's not my daily as it's a convertible 2 seater and we're a family of four. Almost as crazy was the first time I decided to try my hand at being a home mechanic was replacing the timing belt and water pump on the Beat. It's mid-engine and the manual says that it should be an engine out service. Ended up just dropping the engine slightly and skinning my knuckles a bit. Supposedly it's an afternoon job. For me, it ended up a whole day and a couple more.afternoons with the help of some more mechanically experienced friends.

Incredible how fast this one is going together. I may just have to try my hand at one of these. The only 190 I've attempted was the Hasegawa A-8 and it ended in failure.

All the way from Ireland.

Still plugging away at this. The HAD decal sheet doesn't include the Ejection Seat triangles so I tempted fate and used the kit ones. 40+ year old decals. I was surprised they didn't explode on contact with the water.

Oh same here.

Yup, the airfoil is upside down. I should have a spare Fisher folded wing if you're interested. I had asked for the straight wing when I got my kit and Paul accidentally sent the folded one. He sent the straight wing afterwards so won't need the folded one. Let me know.

Wow.

Stickers on! Well, some of them.
