    Attention to detail makes the difference. Speaking of boats, I would have love to have seen the USS Constitution and a Viking ship in the parade of boats. Gary S.

    I'm not too sure, but I was wondering if the fabric was dyed it blue and applied overall and then streaked. After all the lozenge was dyed. Gary S.

    Been there, done that. The clutch cable would often break on my Kawasaki 900 on the way home. No, I don't have it anymore. I sold it in the mid eighty's. Gary S.

    Scratch 1/48th scale Topgun Darkstar

    Seems like the more I putty and sand, the more places I putty and sand!! The fins are just temporarily taped on to see how they look. Looks good enough to me.As long as the basic shape looks ok. Gary S.

    So far there's been two applications of JC and sanding. Some places still need fill and more sanding. After that I'm thinking of brushing on a coat or two of Future then a spray primer. Gary S.

    And lots of it! At least joint compound is easy to sand. Gary S.

    Following Saul's recommendation, the model was sprayed with poly urethane. It was the only sealer on hand. This morning, the first coat of joint compound was applied around the nose and upper fuselage and wings. Kinda looks like the soldier in white from Catch 22. Gary S.

    We just happen to have joint compound, so I'll give it a try. Thanks! Do I spread it over the whole surface? In the meantime, I used whiteout on some of the seams this morning. Some people use it on plastic models. Joint compound will be a lot less toxic. Gary S.
