That's it Guy you just pound it out to quick never saw it great looking rendition!I wish I could get that comfortable with weathering getting close with the Tempest.

Good to hear Peter

Easier and quicker Jeroen.

Jeroen looking good but you have a few ...irons in the fire ATTM

Watched that the other night Ralph one of my favorite shows on YT.My wife said a couple weeks ago "all you watch is war and that tank show" I go "TV has nothing for me" I am not interested in being programed any longer.

Ralph that looks to be 3/4X bigger than the HT I visit in Mobile with a lot more plastic.I am not kidding and it probably happens with many of us but I have more kits in my collection than they have on 16' of shelving or equal just talking military.

yeah keep it up Really Rob I have broom in that room sweep the floor probably twice a week it blows my mind how it happens.The rockets have their decals applied off now to cut some brass for the rear of the rockets to handle the wiring they look pretty Nice

Now Now Peter!! We all know the drill the faster you clear that list another is created fast=wrong pace it our bodies can only take so much.

Honestly Paul if I would of just chucked it up to the landing gear gremlin quickly(20mins) I would of almost been done with the replacement confidence in my ability to make the piece was not there.I looked at it and my mind started turning going yeah I can make that and no one except me will know.I am getting better at this and other things in my modeling have been changing in the last year or two in my abilities not like Rob he's aggressive me baby steps.

Not at all John the pattern here just looks smaller blends better and more abstract if that makes sense no two mottles look the same

Well if that little gremlin struck again she's not going to be ready for the show this W/E.I was building the tailwheel assembly a piece flipped out the fingers hit the chest and went under the desk on a hardwood floor and that's all it wrote.That little POS grabbed it up and off to his hole it went.The first pick is the factory the white part is what I had to make nothing hard just 30/45 more minutes even got the bolt heads with the punch.The next pic is the rockets and to get a decent crisp lines.I first glued a bigger diameter to my plate and beveled the inside of the tube to cover the light grey all the rockets had been painted in and then painted the green.The next step was to tape off the area below the white/grey for the bottom of the red stripe and got a smaller diameter tube beveled and glued it to the platform and sprayed the red.I think if will work still got some more brush painting but the jig worked.

Rub it in the water the waves let's see what happens next here you peeking in Rob not much into most SciFi.

I think that's one of your better mottling jobs John looks right.

I see some more styrene in your future.I am sure you will get there John

I like that beat up look their Guy look's legit.

That is looking exquisite Hubert really liking it a lot.Golf...I use to play quite a bit back in the 90's my older brother would always win except one day my best round I am thinking 87.I usually was like 95/105 terrible but it was fun then the green fees started going up.I took up gun collecting they do not go down in value.Keep modeling Sir the work is fantastic.

I usually do PP myself Peter they are great in resolving issues like this but the interest rate sucks right now my credit union is really low.I have to add an extra layer of scrutiny ordering from outside my normal vendors research.

Ralph looking at the pliers by the chassis I am guessing 8/10" long for the 1/35 is about 6" overall after being built?

I am beginning to think I have some gremlins in the shop that likes gear bay doors this is the second one in about 4/5 months now and I have hardwood floors?Just a couple more effects and she's ready for paint by the way it is riveted .The inside of the door the riveting sucks outside looks pretty good. The last pic just shows they area equal stacked on top of each other.

Cool project Ralph and congratulations on the marriage!

I was wondering Paul they just take the money. I remember that one Mike just not the company.

I don't if this has been brought up before but avoid them at all cost ordered a Very Fire 1/350 USS Wisconsin "Whisky" acknowledge the order on 9/25/24.I have emailed twice for an ETA no response and 23 days later still no tracking #.I am currently looking to see if my Keesler Federal Credit Union can reverse the charges?The BBB reviews of the company are terrible.....shysters https://www.bbb.org/us/pa/mayfield/profile/wholesale-hobby-supplies/internet-hobbies-0241-235973355

Looking good there Ralph!
