spang Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Hi, i have just find a KA-3B Skywarrior and i would like to transform it on an ERA-3B of VAQ-34. The perfect aircraft to be with my EA-7L Corsair II. -Steel Beach produce a set ref 48977 ERA-3B Update Set, but it's out of stock at SprueBrothers. Is it still in production ? -VAQ-34 decals exist ? Thanks for your answer SPang Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren Roberts Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 The masters for the cheek cameras were pretty dinged up the last time I made molds because they are so thin. One cracked in half. 😞I haven't had time to try and repair it because I've been so behind on other items. The best bet is to pick up the ERA kit and get the update set that has all the missing antennas. If I can ever repair the masters, I'll put a few into production again.

spang Posted October 20, 2018 Author Share Posted October 20, 2018 Thanks Darren for your answer. Is it possible to obtain the set without the cheek cameras ? SPang Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wizard_rkt Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 (edited) Can I get some without the cheek cameras, too? At least two sets would be great! I can buy 5 sets though if you make them. I don't need the cheeks. Edited October 21, 2018 by Wizard_rkt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren Roberts Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 If you don't need the cheek cameras, I should be able to help you out. Give me some time to finish up the Tamiya F-14 sets I'm working on and I'll start on the ERA sets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spang Posted October 21, 2018 Author Share Posted October 21, 2018 I don't need the cheek cameras and i will waiting for the ERA sets. Finish the Tamiya sets in first ... i'm waiting B conversion. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RCarlson Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 I know this is an old thread, but wanted to see if you are doing anymore of these sets for the ERA Darren? I'm thinking about getting the Trumpeter kit, but wanted to check first. Thanks, Ron Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GW8345 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 If memory serves me correct I believe Darren has stopped doing Steel Beach stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's what I was thinking as well, but couldn't recall for sure and I know Darren was pretty busy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren Roberts Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Unfortunately, I sold my house and moved into a townhouse with no room to cast. So, Steel Beach is no more. I really wish someone would make a 3D printed set. That would be great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I knew you had not put out anything new, but couldn't remember if you were busy with school and such. Hope you are still finding time to build though. Ron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
