Anyone Know if there is an issue at Leading Edge Models?
Big Kohona replied to Emvar's topic in General Discussion
Dave can be rather poor at responding to emails. I've bought directly from him and through eBay. He's often said to just email him with what I want and when I have, he's never responded, so I end up buying through eBay - which results in my receiving what I want in a relatively timely manner. Of course, Dave will then send the reminder to buy / order direct so he can avoid the eBay and PayPal fees, which I understand and generally have no issues with doing, problem is, he never responds to my requests. I waited for him, I'd have missed out on a few of his newer sheets, so I go through eBay -
The museum itself is indeed worth the visit. But to see that Stuka suspended in a dive is something else. Well worth the visit.

1/72 Tamiya Fw190A-4 Walter Nowotny’s Winter Bird
Big Kohona replied to nicholassagan's topic in The Display Case
Nice weathering job. You may wish to check your references as it appears that you built the kit as an Fw.190A-3, not an A-4. The most discernible difference between the two variants is where the antenna attaches to the top of the vertical stabilizer (tail). Fw.190A-4: Fw.190A-3: -
CELLAR DWELLER HOBBY LTD - not a large model kit selection, mainly the flying type SPARETIME HOBBIES INC - ok number of kits, not a lot of new stuff, good selection of paints (slot cars is their thing) ELMWOOD HOBBY WORKS - hole in the wall, mainly r/r stuff and draperies (yes draperies on the other half of the store) GOOCH'S HOBBIES - about this City's best hobby shop. Fair prices, not an overly abundant selection of kit, but a very good selection of paint (for Winnipeg) You really want a good hobby shop with a crap load of kits (old, hard to find and new), then you need to hit Uncle B

why would you have to even bother with the engine if you were closing the cowlings anyways?

While poking around the net in search of a kit, I found a company called Mustang Hobbies, owner by a fellow by the name of Jim Pentifallo. I could not find out where they were located in the U.S. and their contact info was listed as follows: ADDRESS Mustang Hobbies 1234 Street Name City, State, 12345 PHONE Toll Free - 1.800.555.5555 Local - 555.555.5555 So either this is a very new website (no reason to not have proper contact info) or... I am willing to give benefit of the doubt, but not willing to give away free money. Thought it best to see if anyone has heard of or even knows t

I have several Falcon vac form canopies for sale. To my knowledge, many of these (if not all of the Post War ones) have never been sold via Squadron and have only been available in the Falcon sets. These are all 1/72 and sold as individual canopies. Some come as a pair (eg. Bf.109E/F), while many are just single units, enough for one (1) aircraft: Set No.43: USAF, part 1 • 1 x Boeing B-52 Stratofortress @ $5.00 • 1 x Convair F-106A Delta Dart, standard & blown @ $5.00 • 1 x Fairchild C-123 Provider @ $5.00 • 1 x Northrop F-89D/J Scorpion @ $5.00 • 1 x Republic F-8

Any Canadian with $4 or less kits?
Big Kohona replied to adam350's topic in Buy and sell - add scale to your title
When it comes to that guy wanting to buy from you, the word 'cheap skate' is applicable. When it comes to him selling to you, the words 'over priced' come to mind. And that's a fact jack. -
How do you remove scratch marks from sanding
Big Kohona replied to B-ONE27's topic in Tools 'n' Tips
Why not just lay down a very thin layer of putty and sand it down with a fine sandpaper (say 600 or finer). When you sand, lots of water and try to use a circular motion. -

What are your interests? -
Hi all, I am looking for the 1/72 portion of the decal sheet that came with Kagero's F6F Hellcat Monograph book. Specifically, I am interested in the markings for the early version F6F-3 Hellcat (Non-Specular Blue Gray over Light gray). It looks something like this: BTW, the decals do not have to be the Kagero ones, if another company makes them, I'd be interested. Kagero is only ones that I have been made aware of. I am willing to purchase or trade for them. I have a for sale list here. If you can help out, please PM me or leave a message here. TIA.
