Group Build Proposal: F-16 Fighting Falcon Furball
okthree replied to Kurt H.'s topic in General Discussion
I just finished a Tamiya 1/48 scale. I had so much fun and I have a bunch more in the stash I would be up for another. I’ve got a couple other projects on the bench I need to finish first but if I’ve got the whole year, count me in. I think the last time there was an F-16 group build back in about 2008 it had a high participation rate. Participation in group builds haven’t been high in the last few years but hopefully there will be a few of us joining in. -
Figures after I bought all the Phase Hangar stuff to convert the Hobby Boss kit somebody would release a new tool A-10C. Tamiya can’t be too far behind. 😃

That’s the one. Thank you. Gun charging handle was my suspicion but I wasn’t sure. I was looking for a similar picture on the web but couldn’t find one. Thanks for posting.

Does anyone know what the curved handle on the lower left side of the forward panel is for? It appears to be hinged at the bottom and has a selector knob in the middle. On the Tamiya kit it is part B17. It appears that Lockheed eliminated this handle on the J model and later. Thanks.

I've got one of Czech Model kits in the stash too. A new decal sheet would be just the motivation to build it.

LF 1/72 A-10C decals IN Air Guard Black Snakes
okthree replied to okthree's topic in Buy and sell - add scale to your title
Still looking for these decals. I’m looking for my 15 year old son who is building an A-10C for a school project. He wants Blacksnakes decals because his older brother is a crew chief for that squadron of the IN Guard. -
SprueBrothers “Email me when back in stock” feature gone missing
okthree replied to okthree's topic in General Discussion
Weird, I just checked and the email address box is there. I swear it wasn’t there earlier. I signed up for email notifications for the items I want. Thanks for the replies and help. -
So I was browsing SprueBrothers website. There were a couple items that I wanted that were out of stock. I looked for the feature to get an email when the items were back in stock and didn’t see it in the item description. Did I miss the memo that SprueBrothers was dropping this “email me” feature from their website? Is there another way to get a notification when an out of stock item has been restocked?

Bueller? -
No way in hell I’ll finish my stash. Fortunately one of my sons build. In fact he builds better than I do. I suspect after I’m gone he will take what he wants.

December. Very nice. I’ll be putting it on my Christmas wish list. Looks like my Invader kit just moved up on the to do pile.

In addition to the Zero, they also announced a F4F-3 Wildcat. Nice to see them expanding their line.

Thanks for doing this one. Just got the kit delivered from Lithuania. The kit decals are pretty bad. Looking forward to this one being released.

It was my pleasure. Happy to have helped -
This may or may not have been mentioned, is there interest in a 1/48 B-26K sheet for the ICM kit?

Yellowhammer Decal Sheet Y48-03
okthree replied to wardog's topic in Buy and sell - add scale to your title
Elmo, I have a sheet of these decals if you’re still looking for them.The sheet is in perfect condition, uncut, and has been stored in a climate controlled environment for as long as I have had them. If you are still in need let me know. Mark -
Local news says pilots ejected but came down into power lines. Both hospitalized, one in critical condition.

second version of US navy standing pilot 2 by Reedoak is now ready
okthree replied to norbert's topic in Jet Modeling
Looks great. One of these days I will get around to placing an order. -
In the past by the time I got to the bombs and missiles for a kit I maybe was burned out and just wanted to get the kit done. Now I start with the bombs and missiles. As I build I will give some attention to the weapons to maybe weather or touch up paint. That way when I'm finished with the airframe all I have to do is attach the weapons.
-
They are non existent on this kit. Represented by decals, that are wrong.

My son is a crew chief on the A-10C in FWA. I’m using the HobbyBoss kit with the Phase Hanger items to build a kit for him. He looked at all the sets and felt they were pretty comprehensive. I already have the cockpit and he was impressed with the accuracy and detail. The rest of the sets were just released. I have a trip to LAS tomorrow. My plan is to stop by Nats and pick up the rest if he is not sold out. Just an FYI, the Italeri nose is the wrong shape.

Aftermarket for Tamiya F-16C (Block 32) in 1/48?
okthree replied to Simon Ocean's topic in Jet Modeling
Wolfpack for the seat. It’s made specifically for the Tamiya kit. -
Spare Time Shop in Marlborough, MA. Not really in Boston, but worth the trip. Probably the best hobby shop in New England.
