CANicoll

Way to go!!

With the snow and taking a snow day, thought I'd try and start another build. Something fairly quick as my schedule these days is kind of packed. This is the Eduard ProfiPACK kit with some color PE but also have the Quinta cockpit set which will spice things up a bit, a set of camo masks and AM decals for a different Polish pilot. I do like the Eduard kits as they seem to go together pretty easily. Looking to do A/C#1 below, and also shown is the ProfiPACK PE set The sprues include both the early and late wings, with the top set in the picture having the canon-relief bubbles. Something I have never seen is tape to keep parts attached to the sprues. Got started on the cockpit, building armored plate - five parts! The seatbelt will (hopefully) drape over the bar. And attached to the seat frame Its a start...

Wow, and smart to get the snowblower. "Heart attack snow" is a real thing so better to be smart. I live in an over-55 community (where I'm the 'young guy' at 64!) so the snow removal here is stellar. Now, once you get outside the community, it's a different matter. I have an indoor garage spot which is nice. Took a quick drive this morning to check out the roads and how the new car handles the snow. All good! (Plus, Starbucks was open - bonus!). Stay warm!

Nice work, Mike! The detail on the carts is terrific. Looking forward to seeing the planes under paint. How much snow did you get/are getting? Seems to come and go here in Lansdowne, but steady. Keeping the plow-folks busy.

Carl, Good to know!

Thanks, Carl. I did one before but without the goodies so this will be a much better build.

Love this! Nice work!

This arrived the other day but I finally am able to post pictures. Thanks to @TJTX for this nice 104 with some extra goodies from the Christmas Raffle.

I just changed a setting on my cell phone camera. Seems to have worked... Changed to a lower resolution.

Something strange is going on. Here is a picture I took with my cell phone a few weeks ago, and it posts just fine.

Hi Jeroen, I'm mostly taking pictures with my Android phone, opening them with the photo app in Windows to down-res to something smaller than 2MB. These are saved as a .jpg. This has usually worked in the past, but lately I've had the -200 error several times. Thanks for your help!

@JeroenPeters I hope it is ok that I tagged you on this. I've been getting the -200 error for a few days now and can't post any pictures. I thought it was a sizing issue, but the pictures I'm trying to post are far less than 2MB. Any thoughts? Thanks!

That is a PITA....

Carl, Exactly!!! I think that is what makes this so cool - it really is like watching a total off-frame restoration. Cool!

Rob, The kit itself is amazing, but equally amazing is how much work (really skill) you are demonstrating in putting it together. Fascinating to watch. The magnet idea is terrific. I used those magnets on a Tamiya P-51 build to make it easy to remove the drop tanks. I only have about 50 magnets left from that! Good luck! Chris
