Sentry30 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Nice one, the weathering makes nice contrast with the special colors of this bird!! Well done D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike J. Idacavage Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Great looking Hornet! :thumbsup:/> I really like the looks of your finished build. Now I am tempted to build a Hornet in this scheme if the decals are available in 1/72. Very well done, and at lightning speed! Have fun modeling Mike :cheers:/> Quote Link to post Share on other sites

balls47 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Yeah, almost 50 years no glasses. Then one day BAM! Can't see close up. Distance is still good to go. Sexy paint is on....... Yessir Shawn, Thaz wha hoppen when we gets older. My eye doc told me that at age 50, everything will pretty much stay as is. I went from 20/10(L) and 20/15® to 20/15(L) and 20/20®. That's good, but like you, my near vision was affected and my distance is great. Good for deer huntin,' but not so good for modeling. I have to wear glasses to even things out. If I don't wear glasses for near vision, I'll end up squinting which leads to a headache. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 Tell me about it. I have a new prescription but can't order for a couple months. Insurance won't pay their part within 24 months of my last purchase. (and even then they don't pay for much) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
