While I wait for the glue on those Tamiya decals release in the water for the F84g I started chipping on the George .I scrap lightly with the knife in different directions esp. where the pilot would get in thought the color looked to grey(scrapping to deep) brought out the silver pencil got the same exact look so scrapping it is.

I guess that's what's under the chin?I would think the Lancaster's carried them John? They did thinking maybe an old canopy in 1/72 something out that spares box drop tank?

Thanks Hubert I don't do anything but forums no other social media myself.

Yeah I just figured something was going on in Ernie's world been alot of weather issues in Texas the past six months.

She should be a looker John and something different from John's desk.

Even with the hiccups Rob she will be fine seldom do I have a build without the "Persian Rug Flaw" Forum been slow of late?

Another Nice write up Ricardo thanks!

Nice!

Getting close to some decals still have a few panels on the bottom held in with pronounced screw heads.The panels I highlighted were basically ones with those screw heads.

Looking good Chris!

I was seeing just that outer film around the insignia on fuse and started Gus.

Thanks Mike when over at MSW Chris posted his card kit of this very same plane very Dark Green shows the chipping happening along panel lines also

I have been working this while things settle on the George.I had all the panels on the front left side masked and painted and sprayed the wrong color their goes 45/60 minuted of masking ....

I have the decals laid let me tell you the red meatball decal were so thick even Walthers hardly touched them!I eventually had to razor knife the seams and reapply the Walthers.

Chris I was reading Gus's build on the MIG Eduard decals in his the film can be lifted.I do not know if this kit has those decals but I hated how my P-51 came out due to the stencils I thought sucked may of been my own doing? Just thinking.....

Another piece of inventory for our dio guys to acquire thanks for the write up.

Mike nice write up about the history enjoyed the read the design really looks simple and usually the best option.I can see with a tail of that size some acrobatics could be observed.

I have 2/3 more of those Eduard kits in the stash will remember.

Cool I wonder if that was what hindered me on that P-51 new decals?I never bothered to read I know the stencils sucked and it may of been my own doing?The Mig is looking good Gus I started more taping of the panels on my F-84 waiting for stuff to dry on the George.

Nice banter!

Tony I am in need of cutting some kits loose I am talking maybe 100 in 1/72 and 1/48 to make room for the 1/32's just I have never sold on fleabay. as to a kit I still like a F-100 with some add-ons.

All will be good Chris.

Concrete looks good.

I leave the forks on the AB tips weras you get rid of them if I am not mistaken?The bottle I have is also probably maybe 15 years old could be an issue?The Badger AB if the paint is not thin enough it will collect on the forks from my experience was just surprised when the leveling thinner worked!

Nice one Dave the belts look like the real mccoy as does everything else.
