  1. The copit is completed and now in the fuse Nice easy kit. Luft belts none supplied all I had.
  2. Looks great Kriss luv the colors!!
  3. I have started another kit while waiting for the replacement gunsight to show up for the hurri.I have eyeballed this kit over the years but never had the smake rings will they should show up Friday.I am doing this kit paint kinda like when I was a kid I had the ole plastic Badger AB with propel when I was maybe 12/13years old.I would paint the plane then assemble the kit ...why am I doing that now?Will I felt with that camo that wraps under the wing it would be easier and not so fidelity on the masking part and painting the lower wing RLM78 first then the masking work for me.I just had a small seam to contend with on the left wing and it's done.This does mean no touch-ups just less spraying the fit is pretty good.You will see the radiator is painted yellow sand on the sides but blue on the bottom it gets smoke rings also.The only area that receives the RLM78 is the wing/tailplanes so this will give me some nice clean demarcation lines.I have the PCM Mc202 and the smoke rings for that one also PCM while not as tough as the FLY are still a challenge maybe later this year.
  4. You got me on that Guy?
  5. Thanks Paul be glad to cross that Finnish line! I was actually kinda glad Martin brought it up at first a little apprehensive then just let's do it. You got that right Rob and this was an easy one compared to your Ar234 Kriss likes the challenge of the FLY kits but even he has a couple Ar234's on the shelf not complete
  6. It works pretty good for some PE even on planes as long it's a low contact area ship railing are so long an much glue it holds well.
  7. You can say that again Carl starting the Hase 1/48 Mc 202 tonight smoke ring come in Friday Thanks Martin the two gun approach gives it that different look to boot I wonder though how many variations of the 20mm barrels their is?The recoil spring is towards the front in the pic while what was supplied is recoil spring to the rear....no I am not changing that at this point just curious.I keep looking at the Scharnhorst off to my left so close but man A/C and AFV have been eating me up of late.
  8. The guns are gone,aerial done and the new prop I think it's Friday the new gunsight shows up? Thanks Mark and Martian for the pointers.
  9. Jerry I have been using this for a few year doing railing on ships and light stuff on planes esp. for Quinta Decals.
  10. Already built and painted the new prop Martian but need to ask which gun was left inboard or out?I see it now on the pic that Mark provided also.....strange configuration? looks inboard was left.
  11. Mark went searching the net some more and your pic is correct every body else has the bigger setup thanks for the heads up.This is the second time ASK has let me down.
  12. I may do a little more research honestly ready to move on some reason though I was having a conversation with a fella in England and thought the bigger nose/props were early model's might of misunderstood.
  13. And she a good looking pony. I like silver.
  14. I was going by ASK decals description
  15. I do at times also Kriss being my first FLY kit was kinda caught off guard was to be a quick build under a month now it's two.
  16. That's the best test for a starter?If the battery is good tap that MFer from the bottom with someone turning the key if it cranks then time for a starter 100%!!
  17. That's coming along quite Nicely Kriss had not realized it was a Fly kit till today maybe it's the fact I am working the Fly Hurricane makes a Nice representation but no more Fly's for me.
  18. I do not think Ron I have seen you work a plane?It's always been big trucks and the like along for the ride.
  19. Mike never not amazed at the artistry within your efforts!
  20. You don't like silver or does silver whup your arse?
  21. Talking about that small unpainted spot Mark?Well work continues onto a light weathering effect.I am definitely on the fence about the ASK decals both roundels on the sides if handled to much are peeling some?I put several coats of future over the decals and it still occurred I fixed it but stillI am waiting on a new gunsight was trying to glue it in thought it took and fell inside the pit only to stick somewhere in their 100%The canopy is just sitting there ATTM.I will be glad to finish this model though not looking to bad on my part builds up into a decent Hurricane.
  22. You know what it was Martian is I confused scales forgot this was 1/24 and already a K that Airfix put out but they did the G.
  23. That's me to Dave I got a big ole gallon of 90% rubbing alcohol I wipe before the primer even the Alclad stays stuck.The plane is looking good though the mishaps always something very very few builds are perfect in our eyes.
  24. Thanks Carl will do a light wash after the Semi-Gloss goes down and hopefully some exhaust staining. I am glad I did not SOD the kit once you get pass the pit it got easier.
