It's not completely on topic, but.... I'm currently working on an Italeri MC-130E to convert it into a MC-130H Talon II, using the Flightpath set. (The idea is to use the "E"-parts of the Italeri-kit for a Zvesda C-130 to turn into an Talon I). Now my question: Which windows of the Talon II are blanked out? The "E"-instructions from Italeri mention a couple of blanked out windows in the aft of the cabin, but Iḿ not sure if that applies to the "H" as well. HAJO

Did anyone order from this shop recently? What are your experiences? HAJO

I´m curious if the soft plastic develops some nasty behaviour over time like rubber tires? I heard about rubber tracks or tires on models that "breath out" the softener which then leads to issues with the surrounding plastic like rims or track wheels. HAJO

Thank you very much, LD! HAJO

Another spammer....🙄 HAJO

A curious side question: This "green-white" camo-scheme of the Junglie... Is it a real scheme or just some commemorative painting? HAJO

Great, looking forward to see some cool new projects! HAJO

I see Ghosts, ehm... Arkhunter! Will you visit more often now? HAJO

This is strange breed of spammers.... HAJO

Great that YOU enjoy things that I had done... 😉

I built their Hansajet and their Lear 35. I was very satisfied with the kits. A good short run. HAJO

I like what I see! Any crew planned for the helo? HAJO

The renders look great! I wonder what kind of openings are visible on the upper cargo ramp...? HAJO

Awesome! I grew up in Lübeck, where these Broncos were stationed. Their high volume turboprop-sound was a familiar thing during my childhood and I loved it! HAJO

Simply great! Very nicely done! HAJO

I built two Navy versions of the Hobbyboss Hawk (SH and HH), and the build itself was very pleasant and fun! Here is a sort of WIP and research threat I did back then: Maybe it helps, even though the pictures are stamped over by Photobucket.... HAJO

I sometimes watch his videos. They are nice and informative! HAJO

I also sent you a PM. HAJO

Well, I built a MC-130E with the Italeri-kit and the Flightpath (resin-) nose. It worked... But we probably need someone to simply do and prove it! 😉 @Ron: Thank you for the information! So, national insignia only on the sides, not on the wings, right? Black stars 'n' bars? HAJO

Guys, as soon as you start a green/black MC-130E, I´m all ears! I already have the Italeri-kit and was planning exactly the Italeri-Zvesda-kitbash Jeff announced here. My biggest "concern" is that I don´t have a definite plan for the camo-layout, only a couple of different pictures. And that I´m hesitant to buy a Zvesda C-130H yet, because they will certainly announce their own MC-130 as soon as we start our projects.... 😄 So, what do you have as reference for the camo-scheme? HAJO

What kits are available for the A-29 in 1/72? HAJO

Southwest, the helo is a Westland Scout: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westland_Scout Great to see one still flying! HAJO

Concerning the LWL mentioned above...: Do I understand it correctly, they were using this sort of "hand held device" from a cockpit of a flying aircraft over a combat zone?? I could imagine this thing shaking all over the place and not "painting" a target constantly.... Or am I wrong? HAJO

Thank you for your input guys, great start to continue some more research! Much appreciated! HAJO

I can´t provide any help, but would love to follow a ERA-3B-build as soon as you start it! That`s an aircraft I have also on my list.... HAJO
