Store is LIVE! New A-10C update set progress!


Recommended Posts

Now I can finally scale my 1/48 A-10C sheets down to 1/72. But seriously, you need to scale these to 1/48 and 1/32 - these will sell really well.

Anyone who doesn't venture to your about page wouldn't know what scale your items are. If you want to avoid a bunch of "what scale is this?" emails you might want to add the scale to the items or to the banner.

I second the other guys in favor of a 1/48 A-10C update set.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. You guys are tempting me! LOL! Wow, there's nothing from Aires or Avionix for the A-10C in 1/48? I'm kinda in disbelief. I know the Owner of Avionix (formerly Black Box) I'll ask him about that for you guys. If the other guys won't, MH might just have to step up. No promises though. ;-)

Hmm, thats funny, the scale of my products are in my logo under Modern Hobbies...Never got those "what scale is this emails." Maybe I need to make the description bigger. Hey thanks for pointing this out ;-)

I see it now that you pointed it out, but the font is kinda small and hard to read. I'd recommend at least making it close to the size of the font you use on the rest of the page.

I have decals for a bunch of 1/72 modern birds so I'll have to pick up your F-16 and F-18 cockpits if I get around to using them. I'm glad that there is little cutting and sanding involved to fit them, unlike some Aires pits I've used.

Good Idea, I just may do that. Ha! the font is kinda small. Yeah, I agree with ya, some sets require a lot of unnecessary work for sure. If theres anything else specific in 1/72nd scale you'd like for your kits, don't hesitate to shoot me a message on the web site or email!

I can think of a few.

F-16 MLU cockpit for Revell or Hasegawa

F-14 cockpit for Hasegawa

f-18E/F cockpits for Revell or Hasegawa

How about:

-A F-15E cockpit set for the new Hasegawa kit (E39)

-LAU-128 missile launcher set with adapters for F-15 kits?

Nice! I have neglected the F-15E, cool added those as well!

Glad to see that you are back in business again.

Just curious as to why you made cockpit sets for the Hasegawa Hornet kits? The Hasegawa kit has been surpassed by the Academy Hornet. It is far more accurate and the quality of the molds is superb. About the only thing it really needs is a good cockpit tub.

Although the IP is a bit simplified (many "steam" gauges missing)I really like the progress and I'll be certainly buying a few of these sets when they're released.

I'd add to the list LAU-131 rocket launcher, which is missing in A-10 kits, but often used. A set of dropped flaps would be a nice addition as they drop, when the aircraft is shut down.

And a LASTE upgrade pack for later service A-10As.

I agree. Had to read through the page to "discover" that all was 1/72 scale -- which is great!!!

Please make something for 1/72 Revell F-16 series, especially cockpit and wheel bays. Nobody makes nothing for this F-16 kits ! It would be highly desirable to. And bulged whell bay doors and correct sized large diameter wheels, and maybe GE F110 exhaust too.

Any chance of separate control surfaces for the Hasegawa F-117A ?

Haydn.

Yes would be great too ! Separate vertical stabilisers makes Quickboost, but not lowered flaps.
