  1. Sheesh, I remember so many of the earlier kits with the gaps and dihedral issues. Very nice save with the thin strips and Mr Surfacer products. 👍
  2. Hmm, oil field pump or whirly bird? Will the pump be automated or static? Automation would be cool, but it's your build, your choice.
  3. Interesting build there, Jack. What's the doohickey on his back and arm? Odd flame-thrower or an adult beverage dispenser?
  4. Nicely done, Andy. The erks are toiling away, getting the Wimpy ready for another go against Festung Europa.
  5. That's why I live in the woods, on the side of a ridge. Mulch the front of the house. Although I do have a year long battle with kudzu.
  6. It happens on Windows boxes, too. Like Andy said, usually the photo heavy logs. Another "feature?"
  7. Like Norm said, you can't have too many clamps. I've used those metal clamps with the wire bails, along with the spring-powered clothespins. Did you take anything off the wheelwells? Not quite spring here. The plants are blooming, but it was 35F this morning. 🥶
  8. OC, that Loctite Gel is a good choice; I use it on my resin cars. 👍 Oh, we watched "Napoleon" on AppleTV streaming service. I got the service to follow Masters of the Air; an excellent series on the air war, Anyway, my Admiral said Napoleon was a waste of time. I'm glad I didn't spend the bucks to see it on a theater. They played fast and loose with the battle scenes. Waterloo was a joke. Napleon led a charge, no battle at La Haye Sainte farm or Hougemont, the Prussians attacked from the west(?). Oh and Wellington kept the Alliance forces on the facing side of the hill, rather than on the back side. This movie ranks up there with "Pearl Harbor"
  9. How did the port side turn out? Display it with the better side showing.
  10. I too remember Moskit, but they disappeared into the fog of yesterdays. Are those 3D prints? Nice and delicate.
  11. I'm in too. It's my wife's fave, too. Me, I'm a Spitfire fan. Although I like Jugs and Corsairs, too. 😁
  12. Glad to see you back, Denis. Events like that can be life altering. Interesting subject. Like EG says, a good white primer, like Tamiya spray cans, should work well. And pursue the decals. Painting them on is way above and beyond.
  13. Almost looks like an Escher print. I'd cut the opening in A8, glue it in . Add the cockpit floor from the front, between the canopy rails, then glue in A15.
  14. Dan, your Sparrows are spot on war shots, The yellow band is in the correct location, on the warhead area. Congrats on your retirement. It takes a little getting used to, but now I ask myself how I ever got any "work" done. 😁
  15. Rob, great work on your leather seat. 👍 Your finishing work is a master class.
