Excited to get this tool!

Nothing at all? Wow, academy kits must be really terrible that no one has spare parts. HAHAHA . Oh well hopefull I can scratch build a decent replacement. Steve

Hi Guys, I know this is an old post an I hope its alright commenting on it. I was just super excited to see this thread because I have just got myself the F-15E Strike Eagle with Bunker busters. This bird is huge. I have got a few models to finish before I start with this one. So I had a look around and found this thread. It's given me new inspiration for my model, level of detailing is incredible. Wow anyway just thought I would have my two cents worth on this topic. Couldn't help myself, I am obsessed with F-15's Steve

Hi Guys, I am wondering if anyone could assist me. I am looking for a part i managed to lose whilst working on my Model. I currently am working on an Academy F-15E Strike eagle 1/48 Scale and have lost Sprue part B9. If anyne has a spare please could they forward it to me. I would really appreciate the assistance. Knowing the model is incomplete breaks me. Thanks Steve

Aah that is brilliant. I am definitely in for one of those.

AAH Brilliant. I will PM you and we can take it from there. That would be perfect, I have no problem paying for the shipping. Thanks a lot Josh, much appreciated

I had a look at it as well. Not sure if we get anything close to that in South Africa. It looks brilliant.

Hi Jochemp, HAHA, not a problem. Glad I could teach somebody something. Are you busy on any builds currently? Where you from? Cheers Steve

Ha, Yes indeed, I see you are. Where abouts in Namibia do you stay. If you ever in South Africa look me up and we can get together for a beer or something? Oh really nice, Have you posted progress pics? I would love to see your Fonderie Miniatures Mirage III. Really? How did your resin bits manage to shrink? Sounds good. I didn't get a chanceo go at my model last night with the Scriber. I was drawn away to a dinner function with friends. So hopefully I will get a chance this weekend to try rescribe the panel lines. Will keep you updated on the progress. What do you do Pierre? Regards St

Okay, I will remember that. I will post pictures in the in-progress forum and take it from there. I shall do that. Fixing them up with a bit of putty. I will try and see what happens. Yeah, I am definietly taking it one step at a time because of the fact that I am starting a fresh again. Okay perfect I will remember that for future reference. I completely agree. I am having a great time getting back into it and trying new ideas out, new techniques etc so I am definitely loving building models. It's a new challenge, and the from the forums I have read there are endless possibilities with regar
