  1. Still not clear on whether the Vulcans had wrap around camo or if there was some sort of sea gray color for the undersides.
  2. isopropel alcohol works for me and windex as well - i go with whatever is readily available
  3. many thanks for these great suggestions. I went with sturdy UHaul boxes with layers of 3-6 planes separated by pillow batting with a substance called "fiber fill" packed around each model. the boxes are being stored in a climate controlled facility until I can retrieve them.
  4. other than "carefully" how would you do this? everything currently in heavy glass display cases. all I have so far are the Styrofoam packing peanuts in a medium sized Uhaul cardboard box.
  5. Anyone have any unused or partial 1/72 decals for a Flagon at a cheap price?
  6. Does anyone make a 1/72 aftermarket fix to turn Trumpeter's 1/72 Badger into a "C" model? I really like that search radar.
  7. Anyone with a spare pair? Glad to pay shipping/handling.
  8. Anyone have a spare set of treads for this tank? Mine keep separating. Thanks in advance.
  9. Paolo - just got the decals - many thanks

  11. [ Andre - were you able to mail me a set of the ROG typhoon decals? My address: quote name=Andre' timestamp='1387225621' post='2566814] Sure!, RoG's Typhoon kit, of which I have several, come with a boatload of decals, including a lot of nation-specific stencilling. Drop me a line at a dot vanderhoek at home dot nl. Cheers, Andre
  12. Does anyone have some spare 1/72 Typhoon decals they can part with? Any nationality and related markings will work. Be glad to swap some of my 1/72 decals and/or pay for yours including mailing. Thanks in advance for any help.
  13. many thanks - I thought about that but wasn't sure I could get a good circle out of it - it's pretty small as a 1/72 item. Maybe I can use a hole puncher on some white decal film to get the bigger circle and then punch/trim a hole in that.
  14. I was disappointed not to find a circular window (I think that's what this is) decal for my 1/72 F84G in my old Heller kit or one in an aftermarket decal sheet I recently purchased. It's a separate piece of the window framing on the pilot's right side - I always thought that was pretty distinctive and am at a loss for how to create one. Any suggestions?
  15. <br>many thanks - did weather exposure cause any discoloring? <br><br><br> <br><br><br>
  16. Did the Korean War F80s have any kind of finish or was it just bare metal that oxidized? Some color pictures I've seen look like it has a polished surface, and others almost look like the later ADC gray.
  17. Is the T3 exclusively a trainer? Are there any exterior differences with the model that did carry Firestreaks?
  18. I doing a Heller Gloster Javelin T3 1/72 but it comes with no ordinance. Does anyone what extra Firestreaks and pylons they don't plan to use? How about aftermarket ? Thanks in advance
  19. I've seen photos that seem to show national markings on the fuselage and upper/lower wings, and others with nothing on the upper wings. Is there a standard?
  20. I can't locate any pictures showing the wind placement of national markings, just those on the fuselage. Anyone have pictures, including the standard camo schemes? Also, did Iraq use MiG 27s in the Gulf War and/or the war with Iran?
  21. John - a late thank you - decals arrived in perfect shape. What can I do to return the favor?
  22. Does anyone make a resin nose to convert a standard 1/72 Badger into a "C" model?
  23. I'm trying a Squadron canopy (1/72 for a Ju 188) for the first time and wanted to know techniques for attaching same to the fuselage and various canopy parts to each other. I thought some kind of white glue would be best especially if any mistakes occur. Any techniques appreciated.
