  1. Thanks for the help guys, I'll try the solder technique first. Cheers John
  2. Hi, Just starting the Tamiya 1/32 F-16. What do people do about filling the ejection holes on the metal landing gear? Fill it with super glue, normal plastic filler or do you use some other method? Thanks. Cheers John
  3. It wasn't too bad, the engine nacelles were the trickiest. I had to liquid sprue then rescribe parts of it. The join of the nacelle and the wing on the left hand side produced a step which had to be filled/sanded out. I removed some panel lines around the cockpit area that I couldn't see on the real thing. The static wicks were replaced with thin copper wire. It's very important to load this model up with as much nose lead as possible. I even packed it in behind the cockpit rear wall and still it's only just not a tail sitter. Cheers John
  4. Thank you all for your comments, very much appreciated!
  5. Hi All, This is my E-2C, OOB with some minor scratch work. cheers John
  6. This is an outstanding build. Great weathering on those JDAMs too! Cheers John
  7. Thanks Chuck that looks great, I assume you spray in a different area.
  8. Amazing clean and detailed work Chuck! I appreciate your thorough explanations, I've learnt allot from you already. Would you mind uploading a picture or your working area? I'd be interested to see how it looks. Thanks. cheers John
  9. Hi Andrew, I'm currently building the Academy Hornet kit. Could you please elaborate on how I should attach the plastic gear to the wheel well? I have the G-Factor replacement set but prefer the quality of the kit part. Also how long has your kit been standing on the plastic legs? Thanks. Cheers John
  10. Same problem Joel, I can watch any other YouTube video but not that one, freezes after a few seconds and wont resume.
  11. I ordered the Saturn V plans late last year, it took about 2 months to arrive. The quality was very good, worth waiting for. cheers John
  12. Hi Les, I bought that Great Planes debonder from eBay-us. No problems having it shipped here. Cheers John
