Be still my heart.

Building the 1/48 S2F-1 with Caracal decals. What color are the wheel wells? Some say interior green, others say gloss sea blue like the airframe. Or both? I don’t think they’d be white like the later versions. Thanks in advance.

That Airfix Harrier is fantastic! Well done.

Over at Modelingmadeness.com you can find a built JGSDF version using the sheet from our favorite decal manufacturer.

The Revell cockpit always looked dreadful, your method of using the Caracal decals is the first 1/144 version that looks great. Well done, my man. Now if we could get some SIOP or NMF decals. Hint, hint. 😄

I'll play. 1/72 Amodel Piaggio P.180 Avanti, Italian Coast Guard 1/144 Roden C-141B Starlifter 1/144 Minicraft C-135A Stratolifter (KC-135A conversion)

What in the world were the Otaki tool makers looking at when they made that humpback behind the cockpit?

Early F-111As and Bs. Yes!!!!!!!! 1/72 Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!

+1 for a 1/72 Euro B-1B sheet.

Yes, early AV-8Bs.

Well done, you build much faster than me. 🙂

Excellent weathering. Random, organic, realistic. The exact opposite of the "highlight every panel line" school. Well done. Fujimi Corsairs are fantastic.

Kitty Hawk 1:48 Jaguar family needs some love. Lots of users: RAF, France, Ecuador, Oman, India, and Nigeria. Lots of schemes: RAF pink, French desert, gray/green, all gray, Nigerian jungle. Most sheets now are for the RAF and France, single-seaters. Everybody used at least some of the Wagon Queen Family Truckster T.2/T.4/E versions. I've read the kit decals are sometimes off-center and hard to manage (i.e. once they hit the model they are very tough to move).

Got mine last night. Looks great. Cannot wait to find a F-18B. These Early sheets are becoming a real favorite.

1/48 and 1/72 H-53 family. Everyone uses them: USAF, USN, USMC, JMSDF, IDF, Germany and more. So many schemes: SEA, engine gray, ADC gray, olive drab, USMC Land Scheme, IDF tan, USMC tactical gray . . . And tons of other schemes I forgot just now.

+1 on the 1/72 and 1/48 Gripen.

Fantastic. Which kit? Where did you source the wheels?

Fantastic job. Superb, understated weathering. Be proud. As a side note, with a warload like that, the range must be 120 miles. 🙂

Man, that is a monster! Superb model making. I love to see masters at work who show the skill of making a short run kit work. Hell, I can build Tamiya kit, but these Eastern European kits take real He-Man model making expertise. Well done.

Pretty sure that Eagle is going to need two more engines. ☺️

I didn't catch that. I will be on the lookout for "sugar scoop" editions of the Hasegawa kit.

Mach 2? Dutch, you are a braver person than me! I built their PBM, that’s enough.

Excited to try my hand at the 50 shades of fresh olive drab/dark gray/dark tan/deck tan/faded olive drab/oil stain/touch up paint jobs the U.S. Army Apache's seem to sport. Next to well worn Tomcats and Hornets, they seem to offer nearly endless weathering fun. Unless it comes straight out of the factory, no Apache seems clean. No amount of weathering is overdone! These decals will be a real hit, I predict.

Whoooray!!!!!!!!! I suggested this topic back on Oct 21 in Possible New Topics. If only every aftermarket vendor was so quick. (I know, I know. It was in the plans for months.) 🙂

1/72 yes!!!!!!!!!!
