  1. I would suggest that you contact them and point out the issues you have. Most all of the companies farm out the Decal Art work, ( I know GWH did this for the F-15 series). to private parties and don't get into the details as you do. They may very well do as you mention, but you will never know if you don't ask. It may save you lots of unnecessary aggravation. GH PS: I really like you stuff!
  2. Thanks for the kind words guys, IT was real relief when I finally finished it as it was a huge project. Next up is a RF-4C/E based on a Tamiya kit. Either going to do a USAF ODS "C" or the Greek "RF-4E". I am very intrigued by the Greek jet as it was the only Recce built with Slatted wings and elevator. Cheers, GH
  3. Hi, , What I should have said is that we never sold them separately. They do come as part of the F-15 Vent set GTR 32015. SB should have them listed in a day or so as I just sent them a restocking order that arrives today. Sorry for the confusion. THX, GH
  4. HI, with the Trumpy 1/32 F-105s, the problem that caused the flattening out of the canopy profile is just the opposite of what you describe. It is the Instrument panels that is too tall that has caused the issue. When they designed the fuselage to fit the panel it effectively pushed up on the fuselage part flattening it out thereby removing the curve of the real aircraft. Thinks of the tall panel as pushing up on the fuselage. The canopies were then made to fit the fuselage eliminating the curve flare of the true profile and causing the error. The issue with pouring Clear can
  5. My latest recently finished project. Pictures up close not the best as it is an old I phone. F-4G Wild Weasel - Details Base kit is Tamiya F-4EJ with extensive scratch building to convert to an F-4G Wild Weasel. This model served as the basis for the GT Resin F-4G Wild Weasel Super Set available at Sprue Brothers. The model took many hundreds of hours to complete over a six year period. The markings represent an aircraft that took part in Operation Desert shied, Operation Desert Storm, and Operation Southern Watch. These aircraft were maintained I pr

  10. Harrier please????? You have been teasing us for years now.
  11. Here is a reprint of a post on Zactomodels thread on his new AIM-120 Missiles in response to Chris's question about missile rails sized and made correctly to scale: Updated 6-4-19. Chris deleted my post from his forum. He is upset I posted there even though I was just trying to answer his question. Oh well, sorry to have upset him for which I apologized. As for rails, look for set for the 127, 128. and 129 in the next month. Our rails not only fit Zacto Missiles, but Eduard Brassin as well. "Mounting brackets will need to be adjusted to fit the pylons
  12. Hi everyone. A long overdue update of new items at Sprue Brothers First is a 1/32 intake and fan set for the Academy plastic Hornet kits. Feature correctly sized intake ducts with drop in installation and highly detailed intake fans if you choose not to use the kit engines. http://store.spruebrothers.com/product_p/gtr32052.htm Second is 1/32 Intakes for the Trumpeter F/A-18 E & F Super Hornet and EA-18G Growler. Feature very easy construction with only one simple cut to he fuselage side along a panel line. Intakes fit rich on to
  13. The kit fan is made as part of the intake bezel. The fan is too close to the intake, solid plastic, and lacking in correct detail. If you have the kit you can clearly see this.
  14. Hi, I never made one of these, sorry.
  15. What great timing and thanks for the purchase. I was just checking in before leaving for the weekend and saw your post. You can use which ever one you want to use. Both types were used late in the war and it really depends on which version your reference aircraft carried. Send me some pics when you get it done!
  16. Actually the reason the outerpylon was not used was it caused control problems with controlled flight. Yes, they were able to put the equipment inside of the airframe, but it was not the reason for their lack of use. Going to a โ€œ fly by wireโ€ controls on the SA allowed for these pylons to be used as the flight computers allow for the instability the pylons cause.
  17. Having some nice AIM-120 at the Zactoman std would be fantastic!!!!
  18. The SA also has a glass cockpit like the F-22 and the F-35 along with Fly by wire controls. Not external differences but the FLY by Wire allow fo r the outer pylons to be used. Looking for drawings or pictures of the outer pylons with our the missile rails. Please let me know if anyone finds them as I am workeignon an SA conversion set in 1/32 scale. THx Gary
  19. http://store.spruebrothers.com/product_p/gtr48009.htm Sorry for no pictures, but I don't have a hosting sight and I will not pay the Photobucket price. Suggestions welcome as this is not my area of expertise. Anyhow, This set is a down sized version of our fabulous 1/32 A-10 set. The 1/48 scale set is for the Hobby Boss A-10 kits and fits both the A brand the B model ( Seater Prototype kit). This easy to install kit replaces the kit plastic parts, if you can can built the kit you can use this set. Please see the link above for pictures and to purchase.
  20. Yes I do. I am in the shop 12+ hours a day either making resin or building models with only my Dogs as company. IT becomes a real problem when I start talking back! LOL๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€ Sorry, while a good suggestion not something I plan to do. Check with AMS resin, I thought they made a gun nose for the F-80.
  21. Detail matches Tamiya stock parts. Because they are do new I have not built a finished model to show them so no additional pictures. I am sure you will like them.

  23. Sorry guys, just shipped 1/48 Tamiya F-16 intakes so I have 1/48 on the brain. AMS resin makes a really nice one: http://store.spruebrothers.com/product_p/ams32094.htm Two Bobs has a decal set for all of the different ACMI pods. Enough to last a lifetime on one set!
