  1. Oh yes indeed. 1/144 Definitely noted with interest over here at http://www.kampfgruppe144.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4273 :D
  2. May I point out that different saliva has different acid or alkalinity levels? Or are you proposing to bottle yours? :D My personal experience seems to be Decal Warm water with hint/drop of detergent (to destroy the surface tension of water) remove the decal once you can see that the paper has absorbed the water move the decal to a piece of good paper towel and let the towel wick out what excess there is.. wait till decal is moveable. move paper and decal to where you want (making sure that there is a splodge of water there from a loaded paintbrush) ease the decal (with said paintbr
  3. can I say I hate you? :D I knew of some of your 1/144 stuff but not all of it... and am diggin the Ywing run. Tres bien.
  4. http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p160/richcarrick_2007/shell19of114_zps6b621ca8.jpg That image... I walked to the kitchen for something..came back and thought 'wow'... if the aperture were reduced by two? four? stops then that could seriously be seen as a 'photo from the time' with an increased depth of field. Bravo for your hard work sir.

    Bf109 G10 question

    On page 85 of MMPBooks - Messerschmitt Bf109 Late Versions (by Mr K. Wolowski), there is a profile of a Bf109G-10 (Diana) with a strange Czech roundel - it has a strange 'facing' that has me stumped. The banner on the tail shows the 'normal' facing (blue to the front, white on top and red at the bottom). I wonder if there has been a mistake (in profile) or could it be more likely a case of "Here is a stencil/template. Here is some paint and now paint that shape there" sort of thing during the war? If that is the case, would the port side of the fuselage also show the same look and would the
  7. Cheers John. I will leave the posts here and see if more information comes to light and then repost over in Props. Thanks for the accepted RLM77 - now I need to work out what paint I have (in Humbrol enamel) to use for that. I guess it will be probably H166 Light aircraft grey, as their is no generally accepted 'translation' of RLM77 to Humbrol (whereas other RLM8x and RLM74,75, 76 etc can be translated to modern Humbrol paints. Most recently in the H25x range) :)/> Edit- looks like I can ask LRG.org- they have a foreign users section. :D
  8. Hi folks. I cannot ask this on LRG.org as this is not actually a Luftwaffe question.. although it is almost at the same time. On page 85 of Mushroom White Series Messerschmitt Bf109 Late War versions, there is a profile of a Diana G10 with strange Czech markings. Does anyone know if that marking on the profile (starboard) is about correct with the position of the Czech airforce logo? And would I also take it as about 'right' that, (copying the Czech us of their OB-XXX reg codes), that there would have been no Crosses on either the top or bottom of the wings. If someone wants a very kewl
  9. A pleasure to deal with you, sir!.. erm.. in 1/144 plastic that is :) Thanks
  10. from 0 - 7seconds you can see which doors are open on the ground and which are closed.I hope this helps.
  11. http://www.res-im.cz/F-14-Tomcat-Flaps-down-set-d90.htm :)/> edit- Thanks Chippy - nice spotting.
  12. http://www.navy.mil/management/photodb/photos/040628-N-1045B-028.jpg holy cow... those things get a Sticker Warranty? :o In what situations are you able to claim? Btw.. nice points about the fixed/movable fins. Thanks
  13. joel - thanks for the link to his website. By the looks of things he is getting better and better over time. I have been drooling over his Bunny Fighter Eduard Mig21MF for the last 1/2 hour (seriously).. http://www.scalespot.com/onthebench/mig21bfc/build.htm seriously bonza stuff.
  14. www.arcair.com the front/homepage edit- however.. in this instance I suspect that he is referring to this kit: http://www.arcair.com/Gal2/1801-1900/Gal1847-F-5E-Wickham/00.shtm from 2003. Steve changed the front page a while ago to randomly? include historical builds (you can see those in the top right corner) as well as Daily Doses/Themes
  15. Ahh.. the craft that flew the first (797) flight into Perth, WA, recently. Media, photography, news reporter on board from Auckland to Perth. Was it 2 weeks ago?
  16. may I take please Cam and markings #3? Cheers... PMing..
  17. That is so true... To cut a long story short, I think that what only you have created is gold. As you mentioned in your first communication, once you have created the original you could almost have a never ending story of them. What wonderful toys you have created and now you can rest with pride - although I suspect you would be highly strung if your file were to be become all corrupted and confused or if someone like Shapeways went 'no can do' and your pleasure ratio decreased. :(/>/> :D/>/> perfect timing with the Eindecker that Brengun has released, btw
  18. holy cow... That blitzes all over what I remember of the Italeri? kit from 1990. lovely.
  19. stunning so far. I am looking forward to seeing it completed with at least a couple of 2000+pixel images.. preferably 4000+ :)
  20. gnarly... specifically a little piece (2 of) that appears to go with the engine intakes unfortunately I think there are some other pieces missing but those would be helpful - to check which way is which and which way around :)
  21. This reminds me of an old study/article from 2009... The All Blacks (a 'reasonably good' rugby team) are pretty much considered obese... http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10585212 oh to be that obese!
  22. A real nooob here when it comes to Luftwaffe stuff - why can't that RLM76 (on the tail) be RLM77 instead - relatively fresh though? I ask this because I am going/was going? to do a Me262 that had a white grey or blue-grey nose (it is one of the versions of Eduards Me262) and I have been experimenting with different colours on a scrap over RLM76 enamel, (Testors' version and this looks pretty similar. This is not a thread hijack about ME262.. just colour talk. Edit- (thinking to self- of course he has other photos that he is not allowed to post >_< which could highlight other things)
  23. nice one. I do wish I could have actually entered for once! I am hoping to persuade my ratbag (in one of the pics) to complete that Pikachu and then enter it herself. I wish I had your: A- Camera & Lens B- your flash :D The Junior entries had some very good kits this year... and mega congrats to JB Wholesalers for the sponsoring... (I really oughta give him/them a call and say it voice-to-voice). I am just blown away at the support. Wow.
