  1. Love the precision. Your build is exquisite.
  2. Vertigo can be very debilitating, especially for an aviator. Big cause for grounding. Thankfully its normally a temporary condition.
  3. Quite the formidable warrior, Alan. And you cranked it out fast. 👍
  4. 3D prints are the wave of the future. Looks very good.👍
  5. A few drops of India ink in iso alcohol makes a good wash for dirting up your models. It will collect in any panel lines. It's not as concentrated as the Tamiya washes.
  6. Nicely done, Alan. I've never attempted figures like these, out side of a few HO (1:87) scale figures in a passenger car.
  7. very nice recovery on the wingtips. Well done.
  8. The St Louis Railroad Prototype Modelers meet is in Collinsville again this year. 25 and 26 July. It's a big meeting; with 900 attendees last year,The 3D print stuff is mind boggling, many vendors. Lots of regular vendors, too. And models by the mile. Think about it.

      I am. It's 2 days from western NC, but we do some railfanning in southern Illinois.

      You bet. Hope this works out.

  9. Excellent writeup on building/growing your layout. 👍 Dead rail is the thing for the garden railway crowd. Our club garden setup is mostly that nowadays, with a few live steamers in the mix, too. Batteries need to shrink a lot for HO, but I can see the O scale guys doing it. Not sure about the tin-plate folks. I need to talk to my American Flyer guy.
  10. Really like this scene. And your shelf on the fascia. Very important for operations. Having to put car cards on the tracks while switching is very distracting. Looks very good.
  11. I don't think any of the early ASW aircraft were particularly "alluring". AD-5W and S-2F anyone?
