any hole's a goal ?

Feel the message of "peace to all men" might be missing here ....

Thats looking great Peter , the paint modulation is superb

Can I direct you towards three of the best IMHO ? This is good all in one starter, and he's a talented man . Evan on PM36. Or Mike Rinaldi takes a different approach with what he calls OPR Or good old Martin K ...Uncle Nightshift great entertainment . The way to Nirvana has many roads. 😀

Good first post and impressive build with a great back story . Welcome

Clearly you've given this much thought, now......clear your browser history ....😀

That's not great quality control at work 🤨. you'd have thought they would have checked before sending ? Not expensive but not cheap either

The wings will fold electrically too ? 😃

This GB is shaping up so well , such a collection of interesting builds going on.

Odd no-ones ever tackled it sadly ....although it's in a bit of odd item and space, for me - only US used , missed Nam ...fought in the sandpits ....hmmm...not been a big hit film star...but would make for some gnarly weathering . Not overly big in 1/32 either. EDIT I take it the Dumpeter was a B Team effort ? https://www.scalemates.com/kits/trumpeter-02214-a-10a-thunderbolt-ii--136441

This will be one for the books for sure. A mammoth build in all senses of the word .

Great choice , everyone likes a Tooom

This but more I'm thinking ?- this was my 1/144 coupla years ago

The Question for me is , now Im looking at it , is it surfacing dramatically with water pouring off it or sinking backwards ....? Your thoughts appreciated , as this could go two ways .

Tamiya's MkIV is supposed to be very good ,

A .lot more hacking ,& one new foam cutter later...... and it kinda looks like the start of a sea scene ...

Bottle up, take one expensive 90% complete model , a hacksaw and ..a circus trick ...

I do nice squirrels .....

Looks an interesting build Mike I've never heard of these , looks like a young Catalina . I'm always on the fence with 1/72 scale , but then Eduard should produce something nicer than more mainstream . I did a Revell Lanc in 1/72 a while ago ....kinda like it and didn't in equal amounts .

Honestly ........ .......what wrong with "wheels up" hanging of the ceiling by some thread ?
