Carl and Scott, Thanks so much for the suggestions and tips! I do seem to remember Thierry's correction list and I think that is what put me off of doing the kit in the first place. If I remember correctly, the list was long and daunting. I'll most likely tackle the main points you have both pointed out - and esp the canopy. I do like Ali's Aerocraft work and will pick up the GT Resin cans as well. So much to do, so little time to do it in!

I did EXACTLY the same thing when I built this kit. Frustrated me for hours!

Hey! I represent that remark! Kinda...63!

Beautiful build, John. The colors are terrific and a different scheme making it even more interesting. I also have had fits trying to get the spinner decals to fit properly, or even to mask a spinner so I'm impressed at your fine work. I see SB has Eduard's masks available, which is a case of closing the barn door after the animals have left...

Ok, I think (well, I KNOW) I'm biting off more than I can chew here, but here goes. I've had the Tamiya 1/32 F-4EJ kit for YEARS. Bought it at the Omaha Nats and also picked up the GT Resin intakes, all for $95! At Telford, picked up the Aerobonus (with pilots) and Quickboost ejection seats w/o pilot figures so I have a choice there. Had to add the Zotz Sharksmouth decal set as I've always wanted to build a Vietnam camo F-4. Plus a few other bits and bobs along the way. Looking for the Quinta cockpit set but it seems out of stock in the US. Probably going direct for that one. A BIG help will be the Top Notch camo masks. I have not quite yet decided on which aircraft to model. Any suggestions? Some of the sharks mouths decals may be damaged slightly, but I think they will be ok once applied. Still have to get the gallons of paint it will take to cover this bird. No clue when I will actually get started. But now I have motivation to get started!! Comments/suggestions are welcomed.

Scott, WOW, The nerve of her! And you were even working on the hot tub stairs. I tell you. Some people are just ungrateful! Speedy recovery for all I hope! -
@DocRob If I remember correctly, isn't EZ Line flat?

I love the AEG kit, and of course WNW is/was in a class of their own. For me, it is just all that rigging that kills me. I never felt like I could do those kits proper justice.

Phil, I think their Metal Range is terrific. VERY easy to apply, not a lacquer, and over a nice primer base the paint is very sturdy. Good luck! Chris -
Great work on the main gear legs, brilliant! Chris
