I've had the same problem with Two Bobs and Afterburner. Now, I test first. But, decals I've used Decal film on don't seem to work all that well either.

Everything through May is canceled - no DoD support. Summer show are still planning, but we'll see if anything happens this year.

Hasegawa weapons set D has them.

I haven't come up with any makers of it, so it would have to be mixed

All F-16Ns were scrapped in 1996.

I haven't really, other than next time being sure to use a decent primer or an enamel/ lacquer base coat, as I would for using Testor's Acryl.

I agree, I try to stock up supplies at least 20 models ahead to give me time to find alternatives that work. I have started to use Tamiya panel line accent. It seems to work, but not as easy. I tend to use quite a bit in each wash. I have heard that airbrushing it on achieves more while using less, so I might have to try that.

Do you have any regular MK84s?

I haven't come across anything similar. Flory washes are amazing, very easy to use. They don't leave pooling marks and are easy to clean off (as long as the surface is gloss). Since Spruebrothers doesn't seem to carry them anymore I will have to restock directly from Flory.

I use them when the color dictates it - they have a vast range of selections. They are easy to use, I use distilled water to thin which I'm fairly sure that it what their thinner is. They can be a bit thick and act a lot like Vallejo - which I mix them with. I have had mixed results however. Sometimes they go on great and dry hard. But, I have had some that like to peel off in large strips just through light touching. I think the underlying surface has to be carefully prepped for best results.

Brushing lacquer over it, would in my estimation, be dangerous. You can spray lacquer over in light coats, but touching it to the surface may be difficult, try it carefully.

Right, this is public knowledge - the Post Office is required by law to pre-fund retirement up to 2056 at $5 billion per year. No other agency, or anyone else, has to do this - it's insane. And, yeah, with no one sending actual mail, packages are all that's left. But, I don't understand why there's no one with competitive pricing.

It seems to be working. I get what people are saying, I keep checking it but no one is posting about modeling. I looked last night and there really hasn't been any posts this year. There are areas there that I won't venture into, but I would guess they are the only areas still active.

There's also a Topgun one on that Fightertown sheet.

If you go to view page info (it's under tools in Firefox) the info box shows all the links on the page. You can just copy and paste them back into your browser to see each photo. It looks like his albums are set to private, so I couldn't find a link that shows the whole album.

^ these, it's called the Asia Minor scheme.

No, no. He's just stunned.

I recently got a batch - they have a nice range of colors with several rare ones. I've only done some test work, but to my eye (and what Brian from Fightertown has posted) the colors are close but not-quite accurate. They are similar to MR Paint, but not quite as friendly as they are a bit thick and need thinning for airbrushing. They also don't have the fast drying time as MRP. I hope to get more use out of them soon, as I'm looking for replacements for Model Master.

Cool! It seems the articles I have read have neglected some of you. You would then have a better perspective on this than anyone- perhaps the movie isn't so much of a stretch.

Didn't Doug Master die in the first five minutes of Iron Eagle II? (although I did see him fly at at the Sioux Falls airshow a few years back).

Well, any time since Super Hornet were introduced anyway. But, the trailer has a scene where the length of his career is discussed, and presumably they have some answer for this. Cruise is 57, the oldest actual Navy pilot was 54 as far as I know. It's a stretch , but only by a little and I wonder if that might change in the future- Reince Priebus just joined the Navy at age 46.

Here's one I made out of an AIm-9, just took a few minutes.

Darren, I just read your F-14 article where you drew on the panel lines, that is a pretty impressive result (it also is inspiring me to finish a Monogram F-14). It is an interesting conundrum. Building an F-16 aggressor this summer, I stared at the real thing to gauge the ratio of color scheme to lines, and while I could see the panel lines they never really broke through the color scheme either. I suppose one possibility to be the most accurate is to draw them on, and spray really thin color coat over them

Interesting, I haven't seen that before, for a second I thought I was looking at the XL #2

Here's a thread over at Z5 that shows Viperbite's process for doing it: https://www.zone-five.net/showthread.php?t=10619
