  1. I see your point Gary they leaked but like we always say less is better or build it up slowly but they sure like to leak.
  2. Nice John liking the looks of the colors being applied and the P-39 is not one of those planes that enamored itself to me but I like the look!
  3. I think I'll add Frigg'in Awesome!! One question want is the item/equipment in front of the chair that is coming and going out of the pics it's so detailed?
  4. That seat is amazing all the way to the rivet detail
  5. Yeah I just wish I had some belts hanging about but everything I have is 1/32
  6. Rotorooter don't sound like fun Harv get it fixed though and get well.
  7. I will be interested Rob in this painting technique you are going after and this metal waxes? when you get to that point(wax) please expand.
  8. I have never done a resin kit call it fear but damn that thing looks to fit like a glove.I will keep poking my head in on this one making sure I learn the techniques of this type of build.
  9. That's some Nice work their Gary!!
  10. Well lets see if this works .........? It works tap the pic enough it will allow full pixel my new GIMP is different than the old one this is a new puter a monster my son built some years back.
  11. I really like doing NM finishes Harv alot!!
  12. Do-17 Peter I used the badge of the Ju-88 to add a little flash to the crate but yeah I stoked about this one coming out better than anticipated.
  13. Thks Guys the canopy is not glued yet see if I can get a pic inside the pit it really is one of Revells better bombers.
  14. I did that one also never got quite done was so close it was on top of the TV and my older brother opened a sheet snagged a mast and down she came.
  15. Thanks Harv I was beginning to think the Russkie stuff was not your gig I have a couple planes that I feel that way about.I posted a pic of my Do-17 in 1/48 one of the Nicest interiors I have ever built from Revell in 1/48.
  16. Finally snap some pics of the last few months of work in the office/shop.I never added the hydraulic lines to the gear the main gear doors needed some significant shaving to fit and like Peter's build the WW's were a PIA but it took a couple tries to figure the stuff out but she stands.
  17. This has been a long project for me going on a couple of years.The plastic part of course was easy but I ordered rigging blocks of wood from "His Models" overseas along with the wooden deck.The deck went down easy enough but you have to rig the rope/steel around the blocks I figured being the 1860's steel blocks rigging/straps would of been pretty common.I evidently developed a system for this process and commenced to rigging some 100+ blocks(not all will be used) still have more to attack to the foremast then to the main mast.Once the planes burn me out again back to this one will commence.
  18. Getting close to the finish line on this one the badge is is mt my artistic license it's a 1/72 JU-88 badge the plane just screamed for more I had nine decals all together from Revell.I used Eduard mask for the glass what a life saver I hate doing that otherwise.She's of go size in 1/48 kinda be nice to see one in 1/32?
  19. Two quick builds first 1/72 probably in a year and the Lagg was sent to me from a friend in Poland on an exchange of kits really a nice kit. The Russian crates like the Germans was a white wash over camo in this case a black base.
  20. Just Life and Work one trying to stop some guys from robbing a store and a 6" drop bar (10/12lbs) at work came off a shelf and clipped the head blood exploded like a pumpkin!The Doc mentioned my head must of not been on the floor I thought said "NO" shoulder was on the floor said I was Lucky or skull been crushed.I figure Peter the yokels out there that never had one I took it for them
  21. That's what I saw John thought it might of been mya dyslexia all good.
  22. When I was doing the Yak-3 the WW were a PIA also I glued the first side together check fit sucked! applied more glue disassembled and got it 90/95% there.I give it a break Peter don't ditch think on it find the solution and resolve that's what we are good at.I had a doctor say I had a very abstract way of thinking when I solved this puzzle in away that know one else had,the nurse had to ask is this acceptable?YES!It was after one of my seven concussions I have had head has been bloodied twice but skull intact part Neanderthal methinks?
  23. This is mov'in John when you guys say HK =Hong Kong ? did not know they did one.KH Kitty Hawk!!
  24. I P/U the Revell of this kit in the last year Peter looks like it should build up well.
  25. Watching John first one for me.
