The Tie Bomber looks to be a decent kit.

That is looking SO GOOD Paddy!

So far they (even the crap Trumpeter howitzer) have been enjoyable to build. They are smaller than most of the planes I have would be after they are built. There is a following, and I have several VW's kits in 1/16th scale. Wish Revell would re-release the 1951 VW Beetle kit as I would jump...

I have the complete Mercedes 450K, The Rolls Royce town car, and the red Alfa Romeo race car. I had several more at one point but sold them and basically broke even on them. The ones I now have I decided to keep and the Alfa I had planned on buying all the aftermarket stuff that was on Model...

This sFH18 mod and FAMO mod I do find very interesting and for the FAMO I even have one in the stash.

@Sharkmouth I appreciate it Saúl, but not sure what this is or what it would be used on or for. Is it this item?

I have used the Master Model brass out of Poland for quite a while now. These look to be the same quality. For the blued finish I just put the brass parts in the blackening fluid and let them turn fuzzy black. Then pull them out dry them off (I don't wash them) then rub the parts with a soft...

The guy pointed out that it looked like the elevator assembly on top of the rudder fin was missing. Can't pull out if there is nothing to pull out with.

Already have both on pre-order. I would hope they do a Schwimmwagen next. If they do, and Revell re releases it's 1/16th scale 1951 beetle, I will get a Schwimmwagen, a Kubelwagen, and the Beetle kit and build a Commanderwagen. I probably should order a second of the Euro Kubel just in case...

Flexshafts with foot speed control have too much torque for tiny drills, especially carbide bits. That flex shaft ends up requiring more stress and force to manipulate it than my old Dremel weight and wire. Plus with the old separate Dremel speed control box, I can really slow the drill down...

A Anymore I just refer to them as useful idiots, where the stupidity is so pronounced that their brains if set on a sharp razor blade edge would be like a BB on a ten lane highway. That and the physical appearance show serious mental problems.

I started looking at the rods on the sides and they are wrong. Too small diameters on the large ones and the smaller ones are slightly small, way too short and the mounts on all the parts are completely fictitious. :bash: :bang head Why should I expect otherwise. So it will be even more mods on...

I decided that this post needed to be moved rather than spoil James thread. I put it in my howitzer thread.
