Whatcha building there, Gino??? Tim

Whatever happened to EDWmatt??? Hope everything's ok with him. Sure miss his posting of pics! Tim

That's an interesting setup! Guess Wernerswings is gonna have to scratchbuild this now!!! Lol I like the new Army seats better though! Tim

I have this spraybooth, but I want to enlarge the spray area because it's too small for my large models. I know I can buy another booth and connect them, but I'm hoping I can find someone who has an old booth and they can sell me the walls. I've looked all over the net and can't find any company that has spare parts for it. Thanks in advance Tim

The floor hatches on UH-60's open upward, it's probably pretty standard on all helos. It would be hard to grab ahold of the hatch if it was hanging down in the hole. Crews like to have an unobstructed view of the hook, sling and load from up top over the load to be able to communicate with the pilots about aircraft corrections to minimize the load moving. HTH Tim

How many coats and how long does it take to completely dry??? Tim

Merry Christmas back at you Steve and to all my fellow ARC'ers@ Tim

I can handle the ads now that Steve has fixed it. I just don't want to constantly deal with top 5 Russian dating sites, sexy lingeries or any adult crap!!! Sorry guys, but I'm happily married and just don't want that crap around! Tim

I thought the ammonia was what would tear the seals up so that's why I bought the ammonia free version. Tim

Getting ready to shoot future on my HB F-14D and I've never used it before. I've bought the ammonia free windex to clean it afterwards. What's the steps so that I don't ruin my Patriot? Thanks Tim

1) Plug in the surge protector that my small heater is plugged into. (I don't like leaving those things plugged in). 2) Reach over and flip my desk light on. 3) Grab my phone and watch some YouTube videos before I start building. Tim

This is CRAP. Makes me not want to read ARC anymore till Steve gets rid of this stuff. And yes, I am happily married as well and have no desire for a bunch of stupid woman ads!!! Tim

Order some 1/32 EC-145 resin detail sets from renaissance models while you're at it. Tim

What color did you use for the drybrushing? Tim

Just found this over on YouTube about the quiet one OH-6. Tim

Absolutely brilliant of a job Oliver!!! Tim

Stop teasing us LD! Tim

Me too. I was starting to have withdrawals. Thanks Mstor! Tim

I really didn't know how I was going to tackle the center console, so I talked to Anvil6 and he gave me some ideas. So I decided to start from scratch and place each nav/com head and any other radios on separately. There were so many different center console layouts that I decided to build one of my own that looks busy and yet looks accurate. Here's the kit part that I modified to represent an accurate OGS MH-60L. And here's the UH-60A/L console. I still have to finish up the very back of it. Hope you like it! Tim

I decided to use the gauges and panels from the Kitty Hawk's MH-60L kit IP and create a UH-60A/L instrument panel out of it. It may not be perfect, but it looks awesome to me! Tim

Nice looking floor. How did you mask the floor tiedowns? Masks??? Tim

That must be it. Thanks Tim

A buddy of mine had this name come across his FB newsfeed. Supposedly it's a aftermarket company that specializes in panels for models. He looked, but can't find it anymore on his FB nor the net. Anybody ever heard of them before? Tim

The 160th uses them also. I've not seen them used on regular army birds though. Tim

The 160th SOAR's MH-60M's still use the ALQ-144. I was told that they still use it because its effective against threats in various countries. Tim
