Informal survey . . . . decals you'd like to see produced
Timmy replied to jward's topic in Jet Modeling
1/48 scale white stencils for Navy aircraft. You could just make a sheet for blue FJ-3 Fury's complete with stencils if that would be easier! -
Come to think of it, Paul may be correct. The fin on the FJ-3 was moved forward from the F-86 series so using the ESCI fin may not work. I'd have to lay it out on the plans to know for sure but in one of my attempts, I cut the horizontal stab off and moved it forward (ala Impatient Pete)http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=126887&st=0&p=1309795&hl=impatient%20pete&fromsearch=1entry1309795

Well - that never occurred to me. I've made multiple stabs at creating an FJ-3 and I've looked at multiple solutions to the problem but I've never thought of something so elegant (and in hindsight, obvious) to the problems of correcting the upper fuselage/tail fin.

I'd love to see some pictures or at least a description of what you are attempting. I've been following this attempt but, sadly, it hasn't been updated in quite a while. http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234981173-north-american-fj-3-fury-148th-esci-with-added-elbow-grease/page-2 You also might find this interesting: http://tailhooktopics.blogspot.com/2015/04/esci-148th-fj-23.html

FS: 1/48 Accurate Miniatures P-51/A-36
Timmy replied to Recon's topic in Buy and sell - add scale to your title
Does the "First Production" part make them more collectable or, better asked, what does that mean? -
This is the Monogram Panther from the box and old Hawk Banshee with a couple of modifications...

While we're on the subject of F-84's, a slight diversion - Does anyone have photos of any 430th FBS F-84's? This is my wife's father at K2 in a 430thFBS F-84 in probably summer of 1952. This is the only photo of him that has surfaced of his time in Korea. I'm hoping that someone may have more...

I recently acquired a 1/48 Classic Airframes Mig-3 and both of the canopies are yellowed. I realize that Squadron makes replacement canopies (that cost as much as I paid for the kit) so I'm checking here to see if anyone has a spare. Thanks! TD

I'm with Gene K, How's that FJ-3 coming???????

Is it so difficult to post your list to this page? I am interested in decals but uninterested in giving my email address to possible spammers. Oh well, I guess my money stays in my pocket.

LF 1/48 C-130 parts
Timmy replied to Devilleader501's topic in The Spares Box - add scale to your title
I have the prop spinners and nacelles. Are you planning on building yours gear up? The one I acquired is missing a few parts but it seems like I have the ones your looking for. Email me off board and we can work it out, I'll send you what I have for what you want to give, no prob. If anyone built a C-130 wheels up, I could use some help! birdysauce at yahoo dot com TD -
LF 1/48 C-130 parts
Timmy replied to Devilleader501's topic in The Spares Box - add scale to your title
I just picked up a C-130 E/H without a box off of Craigslist. Are these what you are looking for? Sorry, the tanks are glued together - and not exceptionally well. They just need a bit of sanding at the seam I believe. If you're still interested, we can work out a swap. I can also take better pictures of the seams if you so desire. -
will there ever be new versions or corrected KH MiG 25
Timmy replied to DarkKnight's topic in Jet Modeling
Amen. -
They only make me angry when people don't wish for a 1/48th scale FJ-3 Fury...
