  1. Well, you're off to a nice start there Chris. Those gear bay doors look like a lot of fun. Maybe put a strip of styrene on the inside over the centre gap. Then when you add the rounded bit, it'll be a stronger join. As for the centreline tank for, chamfer the sides of the tank mount, this will give you a bit of room to accommodate the curve of the underside.
  2. I used Sunlight on mine. They came out smelling like fresh laundry.
  3. The chassis looks stunning Rob. Glad to see you're making progress on the Cobra.
  4. Thanks everyone! Sue asked me last night what kind of cake I wanted. "Chocolate or vanilla?" I replied "Carrot". I then got a death stare from Sue. But I woke up this morning to the smell of carrot cake baking.
  5. Really nice job Peter. Can't wait to see it finished
  6. That's a fat squirrel!! As fat as my attention span is short.
  7. Not a Cutlass, but a twin engine Navy jet all the same.
  8. That's the one Jeff. I keep opening the box, look at the instructions and close it up again. They really crammed the detail into that kit.
  9. The squared off bustle makes the turret look like a cross between a Leopard 2 and a T-55 Enigma.
  10. Amazing work there Jeff. Just catching up on this thread. The closest I'll come to something like this is the Diamond T wrecker I have in the stash.
  11. Paul, that looks like a nice kit. Gecko is really putting out some nice kits.
  12. Cool! I was just looking at this kit at my LHS. It's big alright. The SEA scheme looks menacing.
  13. It seems my RLM66 squirrel has grown wings.
  14. Wow, I just find the build thread and you're done already. Great work and tips for doing the spinner spirals.
  15. Gecko Models has released some images of their forthcoming PACV hovercraft. I can't see to get the images to work but here's the link to The Modeling News: https://www.themodellingnews.com/2024/07/gecko-models-new-135-scale-us-navy.html#google_vignette Nice thing is it'll be plastic instead of resin.
  16. Scott, if I see one I'll let you know. They're not posting the kits online as they're in such a varied condition but if they know the kit is there, they'll price it out for them.
  17. I'm thinking Tiger 131 myself.
  18. Saw a Monogram B-58 today at the LHS in the clear out. Was tempted by it.
  19. I'll do my best.
  20. I forgot to say this is the just the first round of kits. Wheels and Wings have decided to empty the whole storage locker and are bringing everything in as space permits. The owner said they haven't gotten to the 1/200 ship kits yet but those are coming.
  21. It kept growing and i think would have been the whole section if I hadn't left the store. You didn't hear it from me!!!
