Got another one off of the bench.

ebay, USA Gundam Store, Sprue Brothers, my local HobbyTowns... I've heard the supply chain for all goods with Japan is disrupted at the moment. Vern

Here's another one. To be fair, this one was waiting to be finished since early in the pandemic. Vern

I actually got one done!

Interesting. I may have to try that. Vern

Hardware store lacquer thinner is great for cleaning! Vern

Did they replace the decal of Balok for the tricorder? Vern

Maybe it's the F-16 version of the MER. The bomb racks look like MAU-12s, but I'm not certain. YMMV Vern

It is the standard wing weapons pylon. It can go on the stations shown in the photo and on the stations where the wing tanks are. Vern

The low speed TER is also available in the Hasegawa weapon set. Weapons Set 1 in 1/72 scale and Weapons Set A on 1/48 scale. Vern

Oh, I know that song so well! Vern

As an old, retired AF weapons loader, they are OD Green. Vern

Brilliant work, sir. It makes want to bust out my Pavehawk and get back to work on it. Vern

Yup... Someone painted clothes on Diamond Lil down at the Air Force Academy... Vern

True North Paints. The link is earlier in this thread. I am very excited! Vern

I found this in the General Discussion board - https://www.truenorthpaints.com/home. A line of enamels replacing MM enamels. Also heard from a friend that RPM is reducing the Testors product line again. Vern

They have Canadian Voodoo Gray! I was stressing a bit about that for my TOS Enterprise. They also have naval colors. I will have to place an order. Vern

My support as well. Mr Color Leveling Thinner has pixie dust and unicorn farts in it. It cuts Tamiya acrylics beautifully. I am getting ready to jump on the Mr Color lacquer bandwagon myself. Vern

I primed the Falcon with Mr Surfacer 1500 Finishing Black and the Blockade Runner with Tamiya Fine White. Planning on using Tamiya acrylics for the detail painting. Vern

I put a magnet in the starboard docking ring to stick it to my refit Enterprise. Found I need to counterweight it. A lot. I also got some waterslide decals off of ebay for it. Vern

Can do. I screwed up the resin beanie cap getting it ready for the new detail part and am taking to some friends if they are willing to make a deal. I still need to post the pictures. Vern

Parts arrived yesterday! Yay! Vern

I thought I had already posted here that I decided to go in a different direction on the windows on the bulb. No matter what I did, I could not get the holes on the photoetch to line up with the enlarged holes in the plastic. This required me to request parts. After sending a request and a check, and several emails, I am still waiting on replacements. Round2 has been very quick in responding, just not accurate. I also managed to step on the bridge dome, breaking the really small piece on top. Flickr is not cooperating at the moment. Otherwise, I would share photos of my progress.

Awesome!

I think I see the difference. It's very subtle. Thanks!
