  1. Milan Thanks so much .. a fun built and I can just imagine how much more fun it would be without my blunders Peter
  2. Barkin Mad You are 100% correct. My fault ... the leading edges on my Harrier is now where as bright and intense yellow as in photographs. I always process my images in Lightroom and Photoshop (i shoot in RAW) and and should have toned down the yellow to what is actually is. Next update, I'll make sure the yellow is replicated as I painted it. Peter
  3. HI Anthony Much appreciated - it's the lead scheme in the kit and caught me eye as well Peter
  4. Nice ... thank you for posting Can't think of any display at Islip MacArthur at all at the terminal. Peter
  5. Whitely Nice decision on the elevators - sure look good. Completely agree it would be great id kits offered an option of self scribing after "slicing and dicing" to make corrections. Keep 'em comin Peter
  6. UPDATE; 8/18/18: DECALING IS UNDERWAY Always pushing to make progress and of course; I made blunder number four in my zeal and I didn't even realize it until John Wolstenholme pointed out that I had the chaff and flare dispenser installed backwards! What a boob I am!! Normally when using Tamiya Extra Thin, parts can be popped off without much trouble and of course in this case it wouldn't, as the part is held in place with a plug that was very well secured with a boatload of Extra Thin. My only recourse was to cut the part off with a micro saw, sand and clean up the mess, the
  7. John Thank you gor the info Peter
  8. Bo I'm pretty much done buying right now as well, as I have all I am interested in with in the budget. I'm hoping for a few surprise subjects to be released and with the retail/Christmas season coming up, manufacturers just might jump the gun and release a few new subjects/kits without the need for a show. Peter
  9. Andy Very glad the mojo is back and the juices are flowing. 611 kits;, that's quite a stash and I would image, the hardest part of starting is deciding what to build Keep 'em comin Peter
  10. Much appreciated. Just placed my order with SB for the GT Resin burner can and a few other supplies

  11. Going with the GT Resin Burner as it is for the P&W 229 engine. Not exactly sure either what the differences are but being for the exact engine, it's my best choice Thanks guys for all the help. Peter
  12. JA Super start on the Lotus and the interior tub and cockpit do look real good. Fit also seems pretty very good. Two questions just hit me in the head: How much of the rear portion of the IP will be seen at completion and just wondering what your POA is for the radiators. Keep 'em comin Bro
  13. Rick Some how life's little things always seem to get in the way Peter
  14. Terrific progress on the Big T-28 and what a way to get back to the bench again Keep 'em comin Peter
  15. Steve Sweet! Looking mighty good Keep 'em comin Peter
  16. Rick Can never have enough Tomcats. Super work on the gear and front office Keep 'em comin Peter
  17. I looked at GT resin listing _ Spru Brothers but the exhausts were not the correct ones. I've been looking and think I found a set of exhausts that look like they will do the trick from KASL. Still doing a bit of research Much appreciated Peter
  18. Trying to find a resin AM exhaust for the Academy F-16I Sufa. The Sufa is a Block 52 aircraft with the P&W F100-229 engine witn the NSI intake. Not sure if one was ever available. Thank you Peter
  19. Sounds very similar to Micro Kristal Klear but I'm always looking for new glues and will give it a shot Peter
  20. Been following the build on your web site and terrific work. Just can’t undrrstand wht Academy pulled the kit years ago and now it’s only s Ebay high priced buy. Always have my eyes out looking for one at a fair price Peter
  21. Mike Beautiful work on the P-51’s. Nothing wrong with a bit of artistic license for effect. The Extreme Metals look great. Keep ‘em comin Peter
  22. JA thank goodness tonight I will hopefully have the re-do done and can move on Bro
