    Gary, looks great. I think those of us building boats are all in the same boat, uh, situation and will need to paint and then attach stuff. Me, I'm trying to figure out how to paint the cabin interior when there's stuff that gets attached to the windows including their frames.
  2. BlrwestSiR
    That about sums it up.

    Here's my idea of nightmare tracks. PE individual link one.... Found these while searching for an LVT kit.

    Yup, it's great getting our kids into the hobby.

    Thanks guys! There's more in the PE stuff than there is with the plastic in this kit. Some of the working stuff is just silliness like those hatch hinges. Here's another example. Working cabinet drawers.

    Looks good John. Almost looks like it's saluting Carl

    Nice progress there Scott. I know the feeling about bumping into seemingly everything once the model is so big. My Falcon is like that but circular too.
  8. BlrwestSiR
    These are long overdue. They should be popular here.

    I'm waiting for the XIV conversion to come out and then I'll start one of the XVI kits in my stash.

    Here you go. With the Tamiya Mossie. Right before her maiden flight.
  11. BlrwestSiR
    Definitely not a kit you see that often. I for sure wouldn't have known it was based on the Russian version.

    Hopefully yours lasts longer than mine did. My son took it for a test flight right after I finished it. Maybe with the more accurate wing profile, it'll fly better.
  13. BlrwestSiR
    I can't find it but I have a pic of the HK fuselage with the Tamiya wing on it and the difference in leading edge profiles is significant.
  14. BlrwestSiR
    That's a great price.

    Ernie, after seeing your pics I have to agree that I never knew how battered these planes got. I'm used to seeing USMC Corsairs looking sandblasted and worn but didn't realize the AVG planes got as beat. But it makes sense.

    Really nice and clean. The display base is great too. I have some stuff for woodworking but don't have the space for a workshop. My big extravagance is a thickness planer I bought for doing my Big Green Egg table. Carl

    The reworked torpedo looks great. What an improvement over the kit one. No idea on the football stuff. All I know is Canadians have a bigger field. And bigger balls

    Very colourful Kingfisher there Peter. I'm glad you're over the big hurdles and getting to the end of the build. Good luck at the dentist. The boys go tomorrow for their own checkup.

    The Otter? I think Mirror Models do them in 1/35. Edit: yup they make an Otter.

    Phil, if you need any paint suggestions how about either of these: I'm going cross eyed just looking at the first one.
  21. BlrwestSiR
    How much conversion work to make this kit suitable?
  22. BlrwestSiR
    I could up for this. I've got a PCM XIX conversion started and plan to do another as an FR XIV. Theres also a Revell MkII with the AIMS conversion for a Merlin PR Spit. Anyone got an Academy F/A-18D for an Atars nose? Kinetic make one in 1/48.

    I've been trying to find reference material for my Vosper build but most seem to be OOP or just plain hard to find. Somehow this book popped up and for 1/4 if the price it was at on my Amazon wish list. Now I've got some options for the camo rather than just a plain grey.
  24. BlrwestSiR
    I was going to say if you got an RC car, I'd be happy to take it off your hands.

    Keep for the rear window area and then lighten the rest a bit?
