Ugh! NO! It more resembles this: This is MORE better!

So you are saying he is an airhead. Eh? Probably has more brain cells than a lot of numb nuts out in the streets these days.

Greg there are tricks to doing PE work. I have started taking the raw brass PE and putting it in white vinegar for a little while. This helps clean off oils and can "slightly" etch the surface. You could leave it in the vinegar for a week and the brass would probably be OK. Other times if it...

Ukraine is giving Russia a whole lot of trouble these days. Fuel, electricity, railways, Amazon copy cat, all hitting brick walls. Instead of going in like a gangster, he should have worked out a deal for what was needed. Doing WWII type invasions doesn't work and they should have learned...

Saúl, that SNL skit is absolutely disgusting. No wonder I have never watched it and it is going down the toilet hole.

Sounds like Shuttleworth really needs to do a serious rework of the airstrips surface. I get that it needs to be a grass surface, but ground "moves" around and changes. I feel bad for the pilot. Glad he is OK, but what a way to ruin a day/week/month/year. Might not even have been something...

That whole display is huge! The detailing is so realistic and involved that a person could stand over it for a very long time and still find some new little detail. Where you find a lot of the "junk" that is laying around on these is amazing.

Woah! Clear doors to do the windows?! I get it, but that is a different level of kit design.

I get it Paddy. The decal issues are one of my biggest fears on building these expensive kits. It is something that can end up way out of control and FUBAR an entire build no matter how well done it is. I guess that is why I have been enjoying all the scratch building on the sFH 18. No decals...

Yeah, I don't know how non modelers can even attempt these photo etched kits. They are usually small and fairly simple, but something like this would be an over the top and way beyond many people's abilities and skill levels. I guess though if someone gets into it, does well, and enjoys it...

Looking good Gary! I am sure she will be quite tickled with it!

Years ago I got a 1/24th scale MPC (airfix) Stuka kit. (1980 btw) Built it painted it up. The decals were NOT decal material. They were like mylar. They wouldn't stick, they just curled off. They were so thick that you could hold and handle them. As this was 1980 and decals were not...

Time for another little update before I go and do more butchery, I mean "corrective modification"! The trails are done. They have all the bells and whistles that I intended for them and will properly set up for either travel mode or deployed mode. I did discover that there is something that is...

I have an ancient ROBART shaker from the 80's that still works.

Looking really good!
