  1. That's what I was thinking.
  2. Nice work on the Phantom Peter. Glad to hear your hands are getting better. I just got told by my LHS the ZM F-4EJ kit came in and they're holding one for me. Hope to swing by and grab it later in the week. Looks like I'm going to be slipping into 1/48 for some subjects too. Carl
  3. Hopefully the masks don't take too long to get to you.
  4. Nice! Surprised about the Eduard bits being not usable but I guess it happens. Carl
  5. Looks great. The more I see of your build, the more I'm tempted by the kit. Carl
  6. Which means impossible to get in Canada. Unless you smuggle them in yourself...
  7. Trying to keep Sunny from drinking my decal water...
  8. John is a master at it.
  9. Assembly is done, time for decals.
  10. Just had another package show up. Saw a ZM A-1H for sale and the price was too good to pass up. All the above was $140 CAD shipped. I might just do the box markings this time. Or if I can find the toilet bomber...
  11. I got some custom masks done by DN Models. They're for the pair of HK Lancs that are in my stash. VR-R and the shark mouths go on R for Ropey which was a regular Lanc. AJ-K (ED934) was a Dambuster Lanc piloted by a Canadian P/O Vernon Byers. His Lancaster was the first to be shot down on the raid and unfortunately none of the crew survived.
  12. If you need just the codes, I have them. The EN315 would have to done after the camo though as some of the numbers are only partials. Let me know. Carl
  13. I'm thinking these: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/203126488541 NMF, checkerboards and stripes.
  14. Peter, for the Mk6, it looks like I'd need the sugar scoop intakes on the rear fuselage and the 6-3 wing which the kit I bought doesn't have. But I can build a Mk4 OOB more or less so that's what I'm going to do. Now to find some suitable decals. Carl
  15. Thanks Martin! Very interesting story.
  16. I help out a real estate company with staging homes for sale. There was one home where we took over 100 of those paint cans out of it. We had to take them to one of the city's dumps where they'd dispose of them accordingly. The home owner made picture frames as a hobby. Along with the paint cans, there was over 1,300kg (2,800 lbs or so) of glass, frames and other stuff in their basement. The agent couldn't believe it. Good luck with the move Scott, hope everything arrives safely. Don't let the wife bully you into decluttering just your stuff.
  17. There's a company making a electric "crate motor" that will basically fit wherever an LS small block does. It even has the same mounting points.
  18. The wings look great. Really nice job on the weathering. Carl
  19. Congrats on the new job Mark!
  20. Really nice Stug Gaz! I like the figure you added too. Carl
  21. Looks good John. I'll have to try painting markings on first one day. I almost always do them after the fact.
