  1. Like many I built when I was younger, then after a years-long layoff got back into the hobby somewhere around 2000-2001. At that time, I'd build one, possibly two models at a time and would not start something new until a project was finished. But in the last decade or so....that all flew out the window. Now, I have around 15-20 kits started...with more getting started all the time. I really enjoy the researching and starting of a new project, and the feeling of finishing a kit is pretty cool. It's the part in the middle that most times bogs me down. At first, this all kind of bot
  2. Very odd Ed... the system won't let me send you PMs, and it's submitting an old post when I try a new post. Also...I was not very clear with my email address...I should've said 'leave off the asterisk'....my apologies. Or, you could try PMing me here. Here's hoping this posts...! jp

  5. Hi Ed PMs are getting bounced. Is this still available? If so, I'd like to pick it up from you. Thanks, John
  6. Still looking for the resin parts, or the complete set. Thanks, John
  7. The math and my wife both say no. I also say no. But then I quickly say something mealy-mouthed like "It's not about FINISHING, it's about BUILDING..." After that I tell her that the unbuilt stash will pay for a funeral and a chunk of a new car. And back to wedded bliss.
  8. I want to build a 1/72 F-111 for a retiring friend. He was in the 27th TFW in the 70's, so I'd like to do a jet from Cannon AFB. I'd take the entire sheet of someone had one for sale, or even just the wing/base emblems for the Cannon jet off this sheet. Thanks, John
  9. "they want to make people dependant from government, so that any of you opposing party's line will be derived of social funds" I do not think it means what you think it means -Apologies to Inigo Montoya Getting back on track, I've been vaxxed for COVID since April. No ill effects. I'm proud to be part of the solution, and helping to keep my community safer.
  10. Leading Edge once offered a set of 1/72 RCAF C-119G decals that came with a couple of resin pieces to make the radar nose for the C-119. I'm really after those resin pieces, but will buy the whole shebang (decals and resin) off anybody who has them for sale. Please let me know if you have this set or resin parts for sale. Thanks, John
  11. One of, if not the most important, reasons for the speedy development of the vaccines was the huge amount of money made available.
  12. I've got a bagged kit, no decals, and naturally of the dozens and dozens of different decals there are for this kit, the ones I want seem to be hard to find. If anyone has this boxing of the kit and has used other decals, perhaps you'd want to sell? I can offer up payment via Paypal. Thanks for your consideration, John
  13. Got my J&J jab today. One and done. Feels good to do my part. No side effects at all so far, and not concerned about any. John
  14. Great work. Really looking forward to this conversion being available. jp
  15. These crazy COVID rules are keeping many of us alive. I hope to be around for the NATS.
  16. It's not Flightpath that I have....the decals I was thinking of are Xtradecal. PM on the way with details, in case you may be interested in those. jp
  17. Pretty sure I have a couple sets, if you can give a day or so to dig them up, I will let you know what I have. jp
  18. Ditto. For years I used a Paasche H (still use it for clear coats or other big jobs). But two months ago I picked up an Eclipse HP-CS. I was initially concerned about the learning curve in going from a single-action to double-action. (Years ago my first airbrush was an Aztec 470 double-action...but I hated that thing for several reasons. I hated airbrushing as a result.) I needn't have worried. It was pretty intuitive, and my results immediately improved. I've used it almost every day (COVID furlough) and have had no issues at all. Wish I would've done this years ago.
  19. We're good. Matt replied, saying that a couple of things on my order were back ordered, but should be filled before too long. I'm happy, and thanks for the info and insight, all. jp
