Title says it all. I am trying to get a specific model from Canada, but I need the help of a fellow modeler in Canada who can ship it to the United States for me. Sounds strange, I know, but not all Canadians are comfortable or accustomed to shipping items to the US. If this is something you might be able to assist with, please let me know. Mike

Didn't they include the UH-1D rotor blades, necessitating some blade modification (or parts swapping with the Italeri UH-1N) to get the correct UH-1N blades? Regardless, they easily have the best UH-1N nose shapes of any kit in any scale thus far.

Looks exactly like the ubiquitous Panasonic Toughbooks we were issued. Nice work!

We can hope they include the correct cockpit (with Sparrowhawk HUD and all of the other B bits). It will take quite a bit to beat Tamiya, even with the need for part-swapping and aftermarket parts to get a B.

US P-3C Orions in overall gloss gull gray (VP-30, VP-26). 1/72 and 1/144. Classic white over gray would be great, too.

They got the Fenestron wrong, just like on the 1/48 kit. Wrong number of blades and it appears the diameter is off.

Beautiful build of my favorite EA-6B. You did her camouflage justice.

Kurt at Authentic Airliners is releasing a 1/72 727-100 with a deployable airstair...seriously. -
Don't forget, we should all be thankful to that fine gentleman at AMARG who was kind enough to give us clear, definitive shots of those "GET ER DONE" flap markings before they were lost to history :salute:/> :thumbsup:/> Dave, if you get any of Brian's VF-Decals sheets or the subsequent Fightertown releases for the last cruise, you will be good to go as they worked from the same shared reference data (the best available). The TwoBobs sheet has some significant issues. Another thing you might want to make note of is the dissimilar yellow used on the vagabond stripes between port an

Does this release differ from your Piedmont kit in any way outside of just the decals? Specifically, are the clear parts identical? Mike -
That version of the Mission: Impossible theme was cool.

MH-53E HM-15 full color boss bird...
PBoilermaker replied to Jennings's topic in Helicopter Modeling
HM-14's high-vis Pegasus head markings put HM-15's to shame. In fact, HM-14's low-vis markings put HM-15's high-vis to shame, too. -
Nice diorama, but for those who are thinking of doing something similar, we don't fly the inport ensign while underway. In other words, the US flag doesn't ever fly from the stern while underway.

Have you considered purchasing the Cobra Co. interior set? Regarding your other questions: 1. Your plan for the window sounds good. 2. Sheepskin can be replicated using sanding dust or "flocking" applied to the seat after a layer of adhesive is laid down. Once dry, you can paint it to match the sheepskin color you want. 3. I'd imagine that a FOD cover shaped tool pressed into some suitable screen material should give you what you want.
