Maybe I am being bit sarcastic with this comment but.....AMK should have announced a new tool 1/48 A-10A/C as 'coming soon' , maybe show some CAD drawings , anything to lure Tamiya into doing a A-10.

' I hope the price remains the same as the F-14A...

I also have those decals and they are marked as printed by Cartograf.

NOICE!!!!

I also use Eduard and Montex masks just because I am lazy too. Something I always do when using canopy masks: spray some clear gloss before spraying the final color, this acts as a sort of 'sealer' that prevent paint seeping. Also, if using Montex mask (or any other vinyl mask) , after removing the actual mask pieces , carefully remove the remaining 'skeleton' frame and put it over Tamiya 40mm tape and using a fine point pencil, outline the canopy frames, cut with scalpel and have a duplicate mask set for free. If you are really careful you can reuse the template many times.

Hasegawa Small Intake + ADF conversion = WIN!

I am in for the Hasegawa intakes, may need 8+

When we got hit by Hurricane Irma here in PR my storage room outside of my house withstood the winds but got a lot of water under the door but no damage to my stash..but… Maria blew one of the windows and wind and water trashed all the storage contents, including my 300+ stash. The plastics bags with the sprues, for the most part, where undamaged but the boxes, instruction booklets, and decals where wasted. I also lost two compressors and a LOT of aftermarket decals. It’s a real mess but I am grateful that my house and cars did not suffer mayor damage.

Awesome sheet, can't wait to order one. A little disappointed that no decal for Mayhen Maria is included.

I also heard that somewhere else , so I took the plunge and.....NOPE. Won't work. Its just plastic cement much like Tamiya Extra Thin but dries quicker.

The $13.29 was the amount for shipping, the kit cost me $33 as you mentioned. Still a good deal on both, thou.

Hong Kong indeed, thanks for pointing out my mistake.

Ummm, I paid only 13.29 for the kit and some misc. photo etch and it took only 5 days from Taiwan to the States. Cheaper that Squadron, that's for sure.

The ghost grays from the aqueous line are more accurate that the Mr Color line, too much of an blue hue in my opinion.
