  1. And she a good looking pony. I like silver.
  2. I was going by ASK decals description
  3. 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.
  4. 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%!!
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. Mike never not amazed at the artistry within your efforts!
  8. You don't like silver or does silver whup your arse?
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. The decals are complete with an overspray of Future and the final details are being worked out.I was painting the rear view mirror and it kinda stuck to the tweezers and I p/u the tweezers for something else forgetting and lost it!I have already started fashioning a new one which should be more in scale .
  14. Can't see any mishaps on this one John all looking good.
  15. I remeber the build did not know it was the FLY but it came out great decals start tonight see how it goes.
  16. The paint has been laid down and with some trepidation as to the scheme?The ASK decals showed what looked correct until you got to the R/side of the plane and then all of a suddenly the canopy went D.Earth and the camo did not line up with the L/side at all so I add hock.I think it came out looking pretty good thus far tons of shades for Azure blue go look went the darker it's what ASK showed?The livery will be S.African with the Gazelle up front L/side.I still have some PE on the tail and inside the canopy to do last things for sure.
  17. The Easy Eight is complete painted the figure tonight and glued in the light bezels.I actually got pupils on the figure using a .015 brass rod used light sand for the face base and came back with a darker sand on prominent areas it's OK need lots more practice on AFV's.
  18. I think I go the Z Bargain brother my Wife said why not build a shop out back and said it first Kevin jumped! I go 16' X 24' mine is 16' X 30' but 16' X 7' is my work area the rest is wood work etc. and it's less yard work!
  19. I don't understand Martin Airfix made a "K" then why the enhancements? I am missing something here for sure enlighten the dim bulb if you may?
  20. Dennis I like reading Clive Cussler they take me to places I have never or ever will go I particularly like the the Sam/Remi Fargo series currently reading"The Mayans Secrets"."The Lost Empire" was probably one of the best in the series yet.The movie "Sahara" with Matthew McConaughey was one of his books and "Raise the Titanic".
  21. Finish it John even now we all still learn something even if it is a new word.
  22. She looking pretty good there Dave!
  23. She came out looking great John and the ole decals laid down nicely
