I am in need of the 2 nav lights on the side of the intake off of a Kinetic F-16, just the standard ones found on most F-16s. Any help would be very much appreciated. Duane

Fred, Mike is on vacation until around Oct. 9th, so you might not here from him for a couple more days. Duane

Thank you all for the help. I just placed an order for the Heli Scale decals. I am planning on doing a standard camouflage Navy mk 41. I haven't decided yet if I will do it as a SAR with the orange markings or not yet. Looking forward to seeing the decals. Duane

So I am looking to build a German Navy Sea King mk 41 using the Airfix Sea King and a conversion kit I just purchased, but what I'm in need of help on finding decals. A company called DF-Helostuff in Germany shows they make some nice looking decals, but I'm not finding anyway to purchase them. Has anyone bought from them before or have any suggestions? Thank you for any help. Duane

I can help you with it. I tried sending you a message, but there is something wrong with you receiving messages. Let me know if your still looking. Duane

What kit was the F-16C demo decals made for as far as the refueling white markings, the Tamiya or the Kinetic kit? I have looked and its not on the instructions and haven't seen it said on here? The decals look awesome by the way. Thanks Duane

In need of clear HB F-111 parts
Falcon053 posted a topic in The Spares Box - add scale to your title
Hello all, I need two little clear parts from the 1/48 Hobbyboss F-111 kit. I need parts Q5 & Q6 which I think are only used on the F-111C kit, so any other versions of the Hobbyboss F-111s don't use them. I'd be happy to pay for them and shipping. Any help would be very appreciated. Duane -
You are correct, the color of the exhausts are the same color as the engine nacelles, in the case of modern A-10s, ghost gray. Duane

Well....they sold them out fast!!! Maybe I'll stumble onto one someday. Thanks for the help.

I have looked and looked and can't find the WWP Apache part 2 in Detail book anywhere. It looks like it came out a couple years ago, but nobody seems to have it. Did it actually come out and was so popular everyone had to have it or what? Duane

Thank you Dave, don't know how I missed that.

When I got mine yesterday I was looking through the kit and noticed something, can anyone tell me where the parts are for the anti missile laser things that go in the circular attachment points on the rear of the fuselage aft of the troop door, above the cargo ramp on both sides? Its not in the instructions that I found and the other versions dont have it, other than the RAF C-130J-30 which has the different mounting but they don't show what goes on them either. Duane

Mine arrived today also and mine looked like it got sat on by an elephant. Luckily everything appears alright and the clear tree is alright, but I did notice the plastic is very bendable. I also finally got the see the walkway decals Steve has been saying is too dark, hopefully some aftermarket decals will come out.

I got one a few weeks back, glad I didn't do anything with it.

Worked...can't wait for mine to arrive!

How about some Finnish Air Force F/A-18s, the subject has hardly ever been done, there markings are very limited, but they have a couple of jets with a really nice tail art, they had a demo at RIAT a few days ago. Ive seen pictures of at least 2 jets sporting these. https://www.airplane-pictures.net/photo/1482997/hn-421-finland-air-force-mcdonnell-douglas-f-18c-hornet/

I am in search of a 1/48 HobbyBoss F-111C for a project. Needs to be the RAAF F-111C boxing. Anybody looking to sell their's, please let me know. Thanks, Duane

They use Cartograph and are amazing quality decals.

I'm working on an A-10 right now and it really varies, not only edge but also shape and how far forward or back it is. The jet I'm doing, which is from the 190th FS, has more a soft edge, but doing my research, they had jets that were all over the place. I know this doesnt help, best thing to do is lock onto a jet and Google the s___ out of it. Duane

I'll toss my 2 cents in on this and hope it gets some interest, 86-0053 in 466th FS markings. I got my incentive flight in this jet long ago. https://www.airliners.net/photo/USA-Air-Force/General-Dynamics-F-16D-Fighting-Falcon-401/1035246?qsp=eJwtjEEKwkAMRe%2BStUKlWKQ7vYAuvEBIPlqszpAJ6FB6d%2BPg7vEevIUkvRwfv9YMGqmATe60oczGz0LjQg/UdzINpsOw7bp9H7kk81MNpew4iiA79O/PprBfQpF2usV5FwC7NKZ%2BCK9TyTO3B5ynmdb1CxMqLf4%3D -
I have really wanted to do a UH-60J for a very long time, hope this all happens.

I have ordered one from Lucky Model and have yet to see it so I ordered one from HLJ and got it in a week. The kit is nice, pannel lines are on par with Tamiya. I have started working on it, but haven't gotten too far. The biggest issue I've had is the joining of the two upper fuselage halfs, the joints are rather small to glue together and I had problems getting them to line up correctly, but it could have been a me problem. Otherwise parts have been lining up very well with little if any filler going to be needed so far. Next for me is the intake.

Thank you all for the helpful ideas. It soulds like the thinner is the main culprit. I think I'll switch back to Testors, the stuff I grew up using, to finish this current project. Duane

I really need help on probably the simplest thing, but for the life of me I cant figure out what Im doing wrong and I'm really about to give up and toss my current build all because I cant figure out what I'm doing wrong with my dullcote. I'm using Mr Color GX 181 for a semi dull look and using just Jasco Lacquer Thinner. I used to use Tesors but thats gone and I'm not going back. I'm doing 1 part 181 and 2 parts thinner, my psi is at about 10-12 and I keep getting the dust look. I understand the atomizing and I guess thats whats happening, but from everything I've been able to rea
