  1. Sorry I didn't have anything with pictures. I purged all of my hardcopy instruction sheets when I closed the business. Glad you got everything in good shape.
  2. This right here! ^^^^^^^^ I love the GX line of clear coats.
  3. Hmm, I must have missed it. Let go back and check. I've been a bit surprised at the number of emails I've gotten. Send another one about what you're looking for. Cananda isn't a problem at all. Sorry about that!
  4. The Navy is SO SLOW getting C squadrons. I get that the Marines are flying F-18's that are falling apart, but some of those Super Hornets aren't spring chickens either.
  5. For some reason, I can't post the list. Email me at drobertsusd512@gmail.com if you'd like the list. If you see something you want, email with the item number and how many. I'll send you your total. The only way I can do it, though, is first come first served, so get your orders in sooner rather than later. Cheers! Darren
  6. Sorry for the late response. I was visiting my dad in NY. I had tried to post before I left, but it was giving me an error message. The sale has started. I'll update what's available and post it.
  7. The Steel Beach Summer Selloff is coming in July! As some of you know, I used to run a small aftermarket company called Steel Beach Accessories. After 15 years of doing it, and downsizing the house, it was time to hang it up. I put everything in storage and moved on with life. However, a few weeks ago I pulled everything out and realized I had quite a bit of stock, as well as the masters I used to cast product. So, I organized everything and am going to get rid of it for good. I'll be listing everything at the beginning of July. I'm not quite sure how I'm going to do it, but I'll figure it out

  9. I put them under Toys and Hobbies, Models and Kits, Aircraft. I get a sturdy box (Walmart has extra strength boxes that are inexpensive) that is larger than the model and fill it with fiberfill/polyfill that you can get at a craft store, as Dutch said. The key is not to skimp on the box. Make it large enough that the model doesn't come anywhere near the sides. That's essentially what destroys a model during shipping is contact with a hard object. It will cost more to ship, but it's worth it. The model will "float" in the polyfill and any shock will be absorbed. There's no getting around small
  10. I concur about the museum idea. I build for a museum and my task this summer is to go organize the back room. There is literally a pile, and I mean pile, of built models that has been sitting for at least 20 years. There's also about two dozen plastic bins with built models in them. For the most part, they are all going to "disappear". I'll try and sort out some good/valuable ones, but I'm not sure it's worth the trouble. The eBay idea is a good one. When I finish a model, it goes on to eBay. I usually start them at what I paid for the kit. Most times you'll make break even. Every once in awhi
  11. I have one set each of DIRCM and LIRCM in 1/72 scale.
  12. They are 1/72 scale. I have both DIRCM and LIRCM. Cost is $5/set. I have 6 of each.
  13. I'm going through all of my leftover Steel Beach items and have a couple sets of the nukes. I did the casting for him, so they were my "masters" that I made to pour multiple parts at once. I'm going to be sellling off all of my leftover SB parts, including the masters. If you need a set of nuke shapes, let me know what you're looking for. I also have some cheek sensors for the C-130.
  14. Way to go! Print a sheet with the prototype scheme AND the new "old" scheme. That would be a winner!
  15. I've got a 1/48 scale F-16 just screaming for these markings. Once again, Kursad comes through for the win!
  16. I've always wondered if staring with a D would be easier. It seems to have the same deep shape as the H, as well as the clamshell canopy.
  17. There's an A in the pipeline that I don't think is very far from release.
  18. Isn't that the craft that was blown out of the water by Japanese Zeros. I think I remember a Senator being on board or something like that. Sorry, I had to go there. 😄
