  1. I don't understand. So you are telling me that the Reskit cockpit module does not correct anything?
  2. Then I'm all in. I have HB F-111s, one and EF and one a D/E I gave up trying to figure out how to graph the squadron canopy on the HB capsule. Would love to have an Aardvark in the stable. Intakes would be nice also. Maybe Phase Hanger at some point?
  3. Then it does correct the awful Hobby Boss capsule area?
  4. The Navy has been slow standing up F-35C squadrons. It looks like VFA-97 have their jets now. https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/10354921 It sure would be nice for someone release decals for VFA-147 and 97 in 1/48 scale.
  5. I will put in a vote for late VF-51 - CVW-15 would be great also. That's one of my favorite schemes from my youth. I had a copy of Wings magazine that did a photo shoot at El Toro and Mirimar that I kept for years.
  6. I used mission models' FS36170 on my one an only F-35. I like it but it is too metallic. The shelf life or the pain, or the thinner as some have surmised was also short. I might try Gunze on my next F-35.
  7. Is the CV-22/MV-22 sheet compatible with the new Hobby Boss MV-22? I was thinking about building it as a CV-22. Thanks!
  8. Thanks for responding. I've come to the conclusion that the Growler is kind of a niche market as far as aftermarket.
  9. Hey Dave, I know you mainly focus on USMC stuff, but would you consider doing the Next Generation Jammer for the Growler? Mid Band https://www.c4isrnet.com/electronic-warfare/2019/11/04/what-makes-the-navys-next-generation-jammer-so-powerful/ Low Band https://www.navair.navy.mil/news/Navy-Awards-Next-Generation-Jammer-Low-Band-Contract/Fri-12182020-1730 One looks like a non aerodynamic fuel tank and another one looks like an update to the ALQ-99. Thanks!
  10. I love the level of details of the panel lines and rivets.
  11. Hi Mike,

    I believe I have one usable one.  I have it in storage. I'll take a look at it and let you know.  If it's usable I'll give it to you for the cost of shipping...

     

    I've been following your builds for years.  I have enjoyed them!

      HI Blain,

      Sorry, are we talking about the F-16 fuselage? I put out a couple requests and kinda lost track.

       

      thank you for the complement! I don't seem to get much built these days.

  12. I am nearing the end of my first GW F-15C. I am using exhaust cans from the Revell F-15E.
  13. Great wall! I have at least three Hasegawa ones on the shelf of doom and in the trash bin of doom. The engine nozzles are not that great. I managed to test fit ones from the Revell F-15E kit that will work.
  14. Hi Dave,

    Are the ZM F-4J and GW F-15C still available?  If so how much with shipping to 96734?

     

    Thanks,

    Blain
