Wow! The library is becoming quite detailed and quite comfortable. Don't forget the glass of 100 year old brandy for those of us who don't smoke.

Looks great, Ekis. I can almost hear the vespers of the inhabitants.

I don't smoke either, but if I had all that stuff, I probably would burn one just for the hell of it.

Thanks guys. I was doing more fiddling about the shop last night and I noticed that if didn't mix the flat too well and used the mixture at the top, it worked just fine. I suspect that this product is meant to be thinned. And here I was all set to run to the hobby shop today. I'm happy with the decals now and will start putting it together. My masks for the glass should be here probably Monday or maybe Tuesday. I was notified it's been sent this morning.
Alan, I had planned on taking off the decals (I have more just in case) if any of the Hail Mary passes didn't work. I still may have to take them off if I mess them up while assembling the fuselage. Crap seems to happen regularly.

I have three sets of glasses - one long distance to check for that kit part that "Pinged" far away, and mid focal pair for when I am getting closer, and a pair of close up ones for when I am right on top of the part - then a magnifying glass and tweezer to pick the damn thing up.

I've been pulling all nights this week so not alot to show.The fuse was married some days ago and sanded when I had ambition and time to which I broke out 3Xbombs,busted the mount for the upper ball turret and broke the 50cal out of the nose piece.Good thing all are easy repairs and the only one left to fix is the bombs going to wait till the paint is laid.I took the advantage of the nose gun coming loose to retread with the appropriate color thread of grey and most of the masking is just about done.The plane is huge the bottle of paint was to show the size but it really does not work but I can tell you the tail is about 7/8" across the wingspan of a 1/48 fighter.I am going to finish the wings before I move on to the engines.Thks for looking in Kevin

Only a half an hour? You must be a much faster reader than I am Ken! But then while almost everything keeps me off of the streets, nothing keeps me out of trouble! I'm married so it is just a state of being anymore.

Yeah one of those necessities of life after 65! I finally got a new set this last year, after something like seven or ten years or something, and I HATE them. I started hating them when the lady told me how much they were going to cost, and it has been going on ever since. They function OK I suppose. I only really need them for reading comfortably. I can even do that OK without them but it tires me out long before I get the stuff read that I want. Not that good for TV and I just take them off altogether on the rare trips to the movies. My wife is the TV person and cannot function without it on. I could live just fine without even owning one! But books, and now to include electronic books, that is a different matter. I have them stuffed in unbelievable places. I always wanted a real library like rich houses have in the Victorian movies, where you could go to the proper shelf and pull out the perfect book for the subject you were interested in at that moment.

lmagna got a reaction from CDW in B-25J Mitchell by Tom E - Revell - 1:48 Scale - PLASTIC
Your'e a braver man than I Tom E. When I took the same plunge a few months ago, all I thought I could justify buying at the beginning stage was a $30 gun/pump. The gun looks like the clone in your first picture, but the pump is a tiny thing that sits on the bench, or in my case the table. So far it is doing everything asked of it But I am probably not experienced enough to strain it's probable limited abilities. I will be certain to hang out here and learn .

I need to quit stopping in here Craig
Every time I do it seems to thin my wallet a little more. My wife is beginning to think I have a mistress! All of these high tek models and after market stuff seem to require a lot of high tek stuff to make the best use of them!

This is one of the more impressive modeling renditions I have seen in a long time. The painting is the perfect display choice.
