Those are all really nicely done. I guess I'm partial to the H-19 for the colors. Good job! C2j

I enjoy adding details that I know are there too, but I'd have to ask myself how much will be visible without picking up the model and using a flashlight to peer through the windscreen? C2j

WOW !! No need for Quinta Studio cockpit when you are doing the painting. That looks really good. Canopy open or closed? C2j

Welcome back to the hobby! A great tool for information about kits is Scalemates.com . It will show you all the boxings, available aftermarkte parts and decals. Very useful. Here is a link to the 1/48 Hasegawa P-40 page: https://www.scalemates.com/search.php?fkSECTION[]=All&q=1%2F48+Hasegawa&fkCOMPNAME[]="Hasegawa"&fkGROUPS[]="Aircraft"&fkCATNAME[]="Propeller"&fkTYPEGROUP[]="Curtiss P-40 Warhawk" C2j

Let me be the first to congratulate you on a fantastic, museum quality build of the SH-60!! I've kept up with this thread for several reasons - the high quality of your workmanship, the "little things" you brought to the build that lifted it WAY above average and your perseverance. I can only dream of a build that nice. Again, congratulations. C2j

The leading edge of the flaps you are cutting away rest under the trailing edge of the top skin / spoilers thus the bottom leading edge of the flap sections is further forward. You can see in the last picture the small amount of flap that still needs to be cut away. Looking at this picture, you can see from the rub marks just how much of the flap is under the top skin / spoiler when retracted. C2j

I'm aware of the physical structure of the fuselage side and that a window opening could be made just forward of the door, but I'm asking if anybody knows WHY there is a difference in these installations? C2j

Ahhhhhh... C2j

You are doing such a fantastic job on this build that my comments are probably useless, but looking at the three pics I posted above, I don't see panel lines? C2j

I have always been under the impression that the old Monogram military vehicles were all 1/32. Scalemates says some are 1/32 and some are 1/35. When I saw your request this is what I thought of: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/monogram-6400-troop-carrier--265093 Apparently Renwal made several vehicles in 1/32: https://www.scalemates.com/search.php?fkSECTION[]=All&q=1%2F32+Army+truck C2j
