  1. Well done, Glen. And congrats on getting this commission. it is a serious work, but with your band of Merrie Men here, it will be light.
  2. They could have used a wooden handle. Harder to spot. The PH is about the size of a caboose cupola, not much wiggle room. Billy is progressing nicely. 👍
  3. More like the 3D resin parts. Nicely done undercuts. I know its card, but the detail is outstanding. 👍
  4. Interesting build. I'm in. Kind of strange to see the vessel going bows on to the pier to load/unload. No pivot capability. The AB-1 appears to have a turntable. I guess the broader beam of the old battleship allows the weight of the lifted load to be off to one side.
  5. I'm in also. The cockpit floor is already intricate. Another Halinski challenge.
  6. Nicely done hot section, Javlin. I've seen any number of Huns, but always in SEA camo. This one will look cool in NMF.
  7. Nice job, reducing the blister. I'm a fan of Spitfires. I'm in, Andy.
  8. Congratulations, Greg. You've been doing superb work.👍
  9. Your Hustler looks good, Javlin. The paneling looks very nice.
  10. We're mostly internet for train goods. The one brick and mortar store has random hours and isn't much good for smaller scale anything. he does stock Mike's Train House. We do have train shows at the Ag Center near Asheville Airport, but need to wade thru a lot of heavily used stuff to patronize dealers with current equipment. Or all the ready to run. I'm a builder. I do attend some RPM shows to see new techniques and equipment, but my old traveling companion passed away a month ago. There will be a meet in central NC next year, either in High Point or possibly in the Charlotte area. Craig, I remember going to Chester Holly's in Tampa in the early 80s. It was a large tin building, with a Cadillac in one area. Loads of kits. Had to get down on the floor to see labels. 😄
  11. Great build, Yves. We have an outdoor G scale layout at the depot in Hendersonville, NC. You should check it out on our site: https://avmrc.com/ There is a video, too.
  12. Looks good, Greg. I drive by an old Cat frequently and your Cat is as rusty as the semi-derelict real one. 👍
  13. Nice oddballs, Yves. I seem to remember another US tailsitter design that rode on a flatbed. The flatbed went vertical for takeoff and landing. USAF declined to build it, seeing no operational need.
  14. Wahoo, quite the dog's breakfast today. The "Billy" looks like some old house boat with the hodge-podge siding, with a paddle wheel thrown in to sow confusion to we landlibbers. The car ferry looks OK, but what the heck is guiding the ferry?
