I agree, bad news is a character building part of life. If you don't like what you're reading, then move on. Life sucks, get a helmet.

I've built the iron man. I must say, fine job. If these are her first models, then she has some real talent. My first models as an adult were less then stellar. I wish my wife was into the hobby. It's an understatement to say I'm waaaay impressed............My father-in-law is into figures also. Nothing wrong with that. We all still use the same glue and paint......... :-)

Am I being ignored here. If that's the case, it's OK just say so.........

Cool, thanks for the info. I can't wait.

I have never done a group build. This gives me a great reason to build my Tamiya F-16C. The plane is based out of Eielson AFB in Alaska. This is kosher, no? Also how does the GB work?

I'm a big fan and have been playing since BF 1942. All I have to say is that is one of the most amazing moves I have ever seen. And I've seen some crazy stuff. The fact he actually got back into the plane is the real kicker. Maybe that was Chuck......

I would bet F-51 also....

I use automotive clear with a flatening agent added. Got to be careful with it. Not too heavy or you model will turn into a pile of plastic goo. Can't use on lightly or unpainted plastic or again with the goo pile. But never any trouble with yellowing. Helps I work in a body shop as the stuff is not really ment for the general public, but it can be had if you have the right conections. Body shop guys usually love beer......and money.

Size? Can you imagine the COST? I would need to sell a kidney to get that thing. And then sell the other one to get all the after market bits I would want. Oh, wait.........

When I first saw the pic I suddenly thought, Wow what a terrible little blue monster. Now I'm just sad. Thanks for ruining my day. :-)

Does your finish coat need to be acrylic?

That's what I was saying. I live in a Chicago burb not far from Cicero and we were taught nothing about him! Crappy public school.

Oh. I see how it is. I'm here sitting on the couch typing this on a tablet while my wife watches " What Not To Wear" Oh the humanity. Srew self betterment. Lets watch some slobs who actually dress worse than we do.....maybe.......

I was unaware a doctorate was required to post here. :-)

He is if you went to public school. Who are you guys? You must make way more money than I do. :-)

Archer dry transfers make some awesome stuff like this. Also have weld beads, casting marks, etc. They are really cool and pretty easy to use. Fast work too. Just rub them on.

litvyak, I work in a auto body shop and we do the same thing to the noobs. Ha!

Obscure much? :-) WOW! You're smart.

I was going to say something too. Can't believe this is the first post on such an important event.

Still haven't seen mine, what the heck! I live near chicago. Where are you guys that have received your orders? Oh crap, I ordered a mustang, maybe one of those is mine. :-)

I'm go. Love this site!:-)

My great grandmothers brother was a tail gunner on a b-17. I tried to talk to him about it a few times at some family gathering when I was in my mid teens (I'm almost 30). The most I ever got out of him was that he was a tail gunner and he was shot down over Germany near the end of the war. Said he spent about a week in a Luftwaffe POW camp and was then marched back to France at the end of the war. I guess being shot down makes for some not too fond memories. Said he did what he had to do. Nothing more, nothing less. I had a feeling his whole crew didn't make it out, as that's the point in the

That's not so bad, my WIFE says I'm a nerd!!!!!!

Hey guys, new to the forum. Wondering if I could get in on this, sounds neat. BTW I model 1/35 and 1/72 armor and 1/32,1/48,and 1/72 aircraft. I do it all!:-) Oh and I have a tattoo of the Flying Tiger from the AVG(hence my screen name) on the right half of my back just to show you I'm serious.

I think it matters. Why teach if your teaching inaccurate info?
