Do you plan on doing any Israeli 1/72 C-130 decals?
-
I may mount them on wood bases and hang on walls.
-
I have to get more glue! Good news....So far the build is going good...subassemblies fitting nicely. The main landing gear bays are nice mini-kits in themselves. I've been sticking all the inner floors and bulkheads in place and fitting fuselage together to constantly test fit it all......impressive fit so far.

Well I was thinking of getting the new Hobby Boss 1/32 B-24 but not now

The clear parts for front and rear turrets are simply unusable. It was just laziness that prevented HB from choosing the same way HAS did the molding of their clear parts for the 1/72 turrets. I'm hoping aftermarket folks come to the rescue. Way to 'screw the pooch' HB! -
4 1/32 B-24J found there way into my stash today......reviewed contents. I'm loving the size and scope of the kit, but I am very disappointed in the front and rear turrets. HAS engineered them perfectly in their 1/72 offering..........why couldn't this be the same for 1/32??!! I guess I will have to hold my breath for those two aftermarket fixes. I am still excited about the B-24D that has yet to be released.......I'll easily pick up at least 2 of those. On the other hand, I picked up a Trumpy 1/32 P-40F that looks really really nice and also a HB 1/32 Sturmovik on skis....great k

Can I get some without the cheek cameras, too? At least two sets would be great! I can buy 5 sets though if you make them. I don't need the cheeks.

I pre-ordered two B-24J and two Lanc's.....when WingnutWings puts out their Dambuster, I will get that also. Yes, I will order two B-24D when it is ready for pre-order. Yes, they will be wall-huggers.

Agreed. -
Anyone want to trade a D for an A that I can part with?
-
It is a Merit Int'l/Hobbyboss release and it is not very good....more like a toy imho. I wasted money on it.....it can be built, yes, but it is just like somebody took a toy and gave us all the parts on sprues of which most are not on sprues anyway. I would chalk it up as a fail unless you intend to build it up and give it to a kid to play with..
-
Ok. So, where do I pre-order from?
-
It is so more likely that they would do a 48th scale Viking, because a 32nd would be too much for them...........or would it? Buhahahahaha!!!!!
-
Amen!!!!!!
-
Now that took balls to list, Sir. There is nobody but nobody going to be that good to us and produce a 1/32 Viking.....no way, no how. Even if it were possibility of one being produced, I'd be one of the first in line to get one right behind you. How long did it take just to get a half-*ss Intruder in 1/32? Yes, I said it and I have 3 of the A-6E and 3 of the A-6A still in my stash after buying at least 8 in total. A nice Viking in 48th is not even available...the old kit that is available is not exactly nice by today's standards.
-
The red part on the pod is something that gets removed prior to flight.....see the handle?
-
The 1/48 Tamiya F-14 is the winner??
-
Ships: USS Midway (any era) 1/350.........including the much loved and missed CV-43 (Coral ****)
-
Guys, delete those last few posts and start over. It is not worth getting worked up over paint for a model kit. I give Shion a glass of American beer and Mr Matt Foley a glass of vodka....drink half each and switch glasses, gents.

I may be able to help you out. I will look tomorrow if you send me a PM reminding me. -Ron

Thank you for the kind words. Much appreciated. My wife said she was proud of me and that I will get a little something extra on our anniversary night.........I hope it is one of those new Tamiya F-14D kits, but knowing her it will probably just be some fancy new way to get my mind of the plastic. 😋

I picked these two up together on ebay from seller Bull Hobby.
