Finally figured out the new PhotoBucket site. Here are a couple of WIP images the Excelsior's 3D modeled Deflector Dish. It's done now and in the print que! Main cargo bay next. Mapping the secondary hull master has already begun. Tracy

Some work towards the Excelsior! Preliminary efforts of the Deflector Dish assembly. For some reason, my photobucket image is not coming through like my older ones do.

Yeah... Gonna have to get a set of these! Thnx CJ

DITTO on Vintage Flyers!!! Does GREAT work with wonderful decals and masks. HIGHLY recommended, especially if your an old school livery fan like myself. ;-) Tracy

NICE!!!!

As a retired S-3A/B Viking SENSO/RAG Instructor, I'll be watching with interest. Tracy

The two forward mounts arrived. They look absolutely awesome! I'm even happy with the diameter they printed in. No changes needed. I need to take a few shots and put them on my PhotoBucket. Tracy

all ready ordered. Will post pics ASAP. Thanks for the work! Tracy

CJ, If you would, just get it to where it will print the diameter it can handle and I’ll do the rest. Thanks, Tracy

I had to strip off all the decals to a project I did a while back because the adhesive had turned amber. Bad because the model was gloss white! (1/24 scale Peterbilt Wrecker). As I removed each decal and got them off the backing paper, I had to rub off the adhesive with my fingers and a soft paint brush until the carrier film showed clear. To get the decals to stick to the model, I used Elmers glue thinned with water to a consistency of super skim milk. The model is over 20 years old now, and the decals are still on and look pristine. Placed at IPMS Nationals in Orlando to I might add. I'm betting the tough time you had getting the decals off the paper was just that - the decals only. The adhesive never left the paper. Try the white glue solution, and use a setting solution if you feel you need it. Tracy

Beautiful work CJ. As a retired Navy flyer and Aviation historical enthusiasts, you are staying true the era you’re modeling. The scheme of the jets and the bombs having a single stripe with no thermal coating. Nice nice nice! Tracy
