Looks like your casting recovered one of your errant PE doors sir. Something I have been doing recently has been to scuff the glue surfaces with some 320 or 400 grit sand paper before clipping the part off the fret. The scuff seems to help the CA hold the part better.

It's here, so time to get my rear in gear and learn Blender and the Makera tool paths program. I am going to finish my howitzer first though. There is also a laser engraver module. Not sure if it will cut through much, but everything on this will be a learning curve. At least I do...

Don't forget the greasy castor oil deposits on the underside of the Fuselage and lower wing center.

@Sharkmouth You are done now Wilson Garcia! 😈

Yeah, that was the other thing about it. The pre-paint just turned me off. $60 for a 1/9th scale motorcycle to me might be doable, except I have no interest which is the thing. Everyone has their interests which is part of the hobby and which makes it enjoyable. I can appreciate someone...

Like my 1/32nd scale B-17 addiction. You don't want to know how much more I spent for all the aftermarket I added to the Memphis Bell kit. I also saw this motorcycle listed somewhere today and it was $199. I have spent more than that on some recent tank kits, but won't on a motorcycle kit...

Greg, with the right base and background I would be hard pressed to know if it was or wasn't real.

I see a lot of it too and if it is bad enough I tag it.
