  1. Hey all,

    I've been doing some major putty work in preparation for another putty-laden project, and I've been wondering - which is stronger after it's cured, Milliput or Apoxie Sculpt? The reason is that the pointed nose of this project will be putty, unless someone tells me otherwise, in which case I might just saw the tip off, bond some styrene to it with superglue and sand it to shape.

    Thanks in advance for your feedback!

  2. Hi Harrier/Viper fan,

    What scale are you working with? If in 1/48, there's a company that makes carbon fiber decals that you can use to good effect. One sheet has enough to do a whole bunch of burner cans. The name of the company escapes me now but I'll post it once I remember, unless someone beats me to it.

    For 1/72, I'll suggest using Testor's Metalizer Dark Anodized Gray.

  3. Oh yeah, I saw the pics earlier and was about to post a link when Alternative4 beat me to it. Does anyone here read Korean? I'm curious as to what it says on the boxes. Maybe from there a guess could me made as to what's on the one on the right that's getting the glint of sunlight.

  4. Hey guys, sorry to hear you've been having trouble with them. Several years ago I ordered from them fairly regularly and always had prompt service and delivery. Sounds like new management isn't too keen on customer service. Hope you get your stuff resolved.

  5. Hi Song,

    Thanks for the heads-up! I'll definitely check both out. Is Hobby Point new? I used to live in Telok Blangah. Wish that was a round when I lived in the area - I had to go all the way to Orchard Road back then.

    not sure about Malaysia, but in Singapore you can look for Miniature hobby. They are located in a factory like building. They do offer good discount on Academy kits when I was there

    8 Burn Road

    #14-16, Trivex

    Singapore 369977

    Tel: 97613903

    Another place to check out is Hobby Point in Tiong Bahru Plaza, #05-05A. They used to offer the same discount on Academy and Italeri kits as Miniature, about 30-40% off the sticker price.
