  1. Thanks Neo. I'm using metal gear so I'm not really worried about the weight just as long as it don't sit on it's tail.
  2. Ok so I got a little more done. I finished the cockpit. I didn't used all the PE since it can't be seen. Nose weights added. I used .30-06 shells cut down and packed with lead shot. I have the forward fuselage glued together and have started to paint the wings and stabs. I'll post more pics later.
  3. I gotta add Exit to eden. Rosie O' Donnell in a leather teddy I almost lost my lunch.
  4. I will say that Into the sun is the worst movie ever. It sucks so hard it almost makes Iron Eagle look good.
  5. WOW!!!! Great looking Tomcat. I hope I can get mine to look half as good out of the box.
  6. Now that it's getting into summer you can try putting the model in the car. I do that from time to time or you can put one of those oil filled heaters in the bathroom crank it up and instant cure box.
  7. Thank You for the photos Ray. They are just what I needed.
  8. I have a couple questions I'm hoping you guys can answer for me. First how far are the rear cabin lights and intercom controls recessed into the ceiling? Second does anybody have photos of the map case at the end of the center console? I'm working on the Dragon kit with the Cobra Co correction set and the instructions don't show how it goes. I've looked every where and can't find photos of the case or controls.
  9. I just had three that's right three VH-53s buzz over the house. They came in just over the trees. I didn't have time to grab the camera but it sure looked cool.
  10. Hope somebody can help me with this. I need the dimensions of the fuselage light panel on the B-1. The one right in front of the wings. I'm replacing the panel with clear sprue for the lights and want to make the panel the correct size.
  11. Thanks Mike. So why do they always put them on figures?
  12. Are Air Force pilots allowed to wear flight caps on the flight line? I mean walking out to the jet for pre flight. I thought I read somewhere that hats are not to be worn on the FL.
  13. How did you do that? Please tell me your secret.
  14. I went online last night to Sprue Brothers just needing 4 bottles of paint. Nothing major right? Well 62 bucks later I checked out. Everytime I go there needing just a couple little things I end up spending way more then I should just because of all the great stuff they have. Do any of you have this problem?
  15. Wow after reading some of the replies about the schools in this country I guess my kids are lucky. Their school is either you can do the work and you pass or you can't and you fail and do it again next year. They don't just thow them in the pool and see if they sink. The school goes out of it's way to help every child pass but if they don't have the grades at the end of the year they get held back and Mommy and Daddy can't do anything to stop it. That's the way it was when I was in school and it worked for me. I finished on time with my class. My daughters bring home As and Bs for the most par
  16. I've gotten the forward two weapons bays and the main landing gear well glued in. Some of the PE in the aft bay popped off and the carpet monster has hidden it. If I can't find the PE I think I'm just going to close the aft doors and leave the fuel tank out. With any luck I should have the center section together this weekend.
  17. I have them and it seems they need to be put on heavy. As in you need to really load up the foam tip. The brush only really works to feather it out once it's on the model. At least that's how it's worked for me so far. But they do look great once on the model.
  18. I'm sorry did not mean to upset pit bull fans. I just think that parents should spend more time in the lives of the children that they will one day unleash into the world. I try very hard to teach my girls what is right and wrong and how to act/dress in public. Then you have two girls like the ones I saw tonight who show what not to do. But with idols like Brittney Spears and Hanna Montanna it makes Parents jobs that much harder.
  19. Ley me set the scene for what I saw tonight. I forgot my lunch for work so I thought I'd just run into wal mart and pick something up. I got my lunch and went to check out. In front of me were two HS age girls both wearing the local HS jacket with the years 2012 and 2013 on them. What these girls were wearing or should I say not wearing shocked me. Miss 13 was wearing jean shorts so short they didn't have pockets and a top that can only be described as a bra. Miss 12 was wearing spadex short shorts that had "I am a sick little man getcha some" written on her but and a shirt(Yes she had on a s
  20. Yes I know they have been Gunship for awhile. I'm doing an old school Bone with FOX ONEs Early BONES decals. I just like the scheme it just looks cool.
  21. thanks pigsty. I was thinking about gluing the inner doors in place then scorring them and bending them down into place.
  22. I know the B-1B is painted with FS 34086 Green Drab on the upper surfaces. I also know that it fades quickly to a brownish color. So my question is does anybody know a close FS match to the brownish color?
  23. Has anybody tried to build Revells 106 with the gear up? I have one and was thinking about building it for my nephews room with the gear up. I was just wondering if it was easy to do or if it's a royal PITA?
  24. You could remove the trim strip paint it in a flat black with primer colored flames. Then have the wheels, bumpers and any thing else shiney done in a brushed finish. I did something like that on a model hot rod years ago and it looked pretty cool.
  25. I just read on Cybermodeler that the Sufa will be available in may with a msrp of $169.00.
