  1. Graft the nose to a Zvezda kit? 'Quickly hides' 🫣
  2. The nose is for the ESCI kit. I think Maestro models are in some way related to Tarangus. I ordered my kits straight from them, and they came in a Meastro box. Shapewise the kit is very good, fit can be challenging, but the kits are made by Special Hobby, so I guess it goes with the territory.
  3. same here, second time. mailed them, so no worries. It seems their webserver is rejecting too long headers, even clearing cache does nothing! manually logging into Paypal works fine. Tried both on Chrome and Edge.
  4. Second delay...my HB E is getting impatient. Then again, this gives Reskit time to do the rest of the kit......
  5. I'd go the other way, use a black enamel or laquer then cover with acrylic white. Then rub with a glassfibre pencil.
  6. That actually almost looks like well worn whitewash!
  7. I recently saw a ZM F-4S I believe, where the grey colour REALLY showed off the error they made on the Phantom's behind (corrected on the long noses). Would not get a ZM without the correction set for it. 'Doh!...was on BM! The build by HABU12 is gorgeous mind!
  8. Doesn't FCmodelmess do the Mig 3D stuff? Tried their stuff twice (silly me) will avoid like the plague for ever!
  9. They're not known for making every version of a kit either....
  10. Search on 'restoration', ideally you want pics with the seats removed. Don't forget the manuals, they are a goldmine of info. Any F-4 will do for most of it, then comes the G specific stuff.
  11. Aaarrrrrgggghhhhhh......that's what I get for not being current!
  12. Maybe what you saw was one fitted with 'turkey feathers? Rare these days, but that's the only thing that makes them look similar. Deliberately picked this pic, as the orange makes sure it is an 15A.
  13. Almost no NMF jet is actually left in NMF. Mostly because of corrosion protection. What has always made me wonder though, is how they are painted. NMF aircraft that are left outside for decades, seem to lose the paint, showing the original aluminium underneath. I'm wondering what (if any) primer they use?
  14. AFAIK only the EX is getting GE engines
  15. Especially with the Dora wings option around....
  16. oops, I stand corrected! This also means I have bought the wrong kit, on the assumption it had the small stabs.....
  17. 'Veyron' is a michine translation of 'Dragon'. The Dragon model company is translated the same way on moxingfans.com
  18. Weird the article mentions the rear seater 'taking control', but doesn't mention why, or what subsequently happened to the front seater after landing. Or did de front seater eject? So many questions!
  19. FGR.2.......F-4M is for Yanks.....😉
