Howdy Gang, I'm thinking about building a postwar Me-262. I found a well done profile. I like it, but I think it is inaccurate. Is anyone aware of a blue Soviet Me-262? I'm sure the green profile is closer to the truth. Thanks! Brent

Original article here: http://www.cnn.com/2013/11/03/opinion/greene-doolittle-medal/index.html?hpt=hp_t4 Original text below: Editor's note: CNN contributor Bob Greene is a best-selling author whose 25 books include "Late Edition: A Love Story"; "Duty: A Father, His Son, and the Man Who Won the War"; and "Once Upon a Town: The Miracle of the North Platte Canteen." (CNN) -- "I think, when the moment finally comes, I'll probably have mixed feelings about it," Dick Cole said. "It will be like coming to the last page of a book you don't want to end. The book has been a good one, but you're sad

I hope you enjoyed your book. I'd like to wrap up the voting on Monday. So, if anyone hasn't voted sooner is better. :) Brent

Howdy gang, Roll Models' World Headquarters was hit with some severe weather. Everybody is fine. The decals and resin are all safe too. However, the power is off until Wednesday-ish. (You know how these things are.) So, for the time being we cannot process orders, answer phones or ship anything. You can *place* orders, but we can't do anything with them until Wednesday at the earliest. You can contact me via email because I am remote. The other Roll Models' addresses are unavailable. Thank you for your patience. We'll get back online as soon as we can. Email me with any questions. Brent

I have friends who were there today. Lucky for us everyone we know is safe. My prayers go out to the injured, the dead and their families. I felt proud to see the responders running toward the smoke. They had to be aware of the enemy's wave tactics. Those are my people. I hope we catch these cowards soon for a speedy trial and a public hanging. (I know, I can dream right?) Strength is the only language these barbarians understand. Brent

Howdy Gang, The Roll Models Quick Build Contest is closed. Voting is complete and the tally is in. Please congratulate Dan Smith for his Hansa Brandenburg from Sierra Scale Models. Two other participants, Steve Barlow and Andrew Mason, have been selected to receive the $20 Roll Models gift certificates. Two voters, Stuart Milliken and Tim Mixon, have been selected at random to receive gift certificates as well. Please check out the Quick Build Page. You can see what people were able to complete in three weeks. Dave Calhoun's P-51 page is broken. It will be repaired this evening. Thank

Voting is open in the contest now. I will be pulling two names from the pool of voters who will receive $20 gift certificates. So, vote, and have a chance to win. The contest is HERE. Have fun! Brent

Ah hah! It looks like it is out of stock. To eBay! Thanks for the link. Brent

Howdy, I was poking around on the Internet this evening. I found an image of a Belgian F-16 with a full size Spitfire painted on the wing. Has anyone made decals of this in 1/48? I'm building a collection of the Spitfire progression. This would be a fun way to end the project. Any info to help me complete this project would be appreciated. Thank you, Brent

We don't love the shipping costs either. It is the cost of doing business these days. We don't make money on shipping. I think we could work the shipping into the deal. Brent

Interestingly enough Eduard just offered a free blueprint of the Spitfire IX. Link below: http://www.eduard.com/spitfire/?utm_source=HS&utm_medium=banner&utm_content=468x73%231&utm_campaign=SpitfireOptin-EN

Here you go: http://www.the-blueprints.com/ Also: http://www.grabcad.com Good luck! Brent

I have added the contestants to the Quick Build Build page. Check it out. We have a vacuform kit, resin kit and some plastic kits started. There is still two weeks to go. So there is time for you to participate if you get busy. Thanks! Brent

I will see you there. I'm bringing some swag from Roll Models to hand out. Later! Brent
