It is definitely remote. Can't drive there!

It is in the curing box and I am at home so I will shoot you a pic t’maree

No, but you can clearly see a color difference between the flight deck area and the area around the gun. I had the entire aft area blue, not just the flight deck area. I used the same gray I have used on the rest of the horizontal areas of the ship. I am not trying to match the colors in the...

Ok, happy times are here again! The new printer is here. Introducing the Elegoo Saturn 3 Ultra 12k printer. Right out of the box it printed beautifully. I have tweaked the exposure time and am now curing my latest test, but the raw print looked spot on. @jknaus, I really like this resin! Thanks...

You will probably be shocked at the quality and fit. You don't need glue, even though I used it. Amazingly well made product.

I could NOT find this picture last night. It is the aerial photo I mentioned that shows the deck colors.

You are a force to be reckoned with on this build. This is top level Tim. Tip top.

Yep, that is one of the future changes! The first change is to the flight deck fencing. I removed all of the initial fencing... ...and re-using those frames I added fine mesh by KA Models... It is, of course, not as perfect as I would like, but cutting the mesh by hand with scissors was the...

Woulda loved to have been there! Great report. I almost feel like I went with you :) All the detail shots are magnificent!

Very nice work! Welcome to MA. BTW, your bench is way too clean LOL. I will NEVER show mine. It is embarrassing but I can't seem to work any other way except in chaos. I have tried...

I think that is true. It is pretty dry down there.

I guess I need to be on here more often because this slipped by me. A jet WWII plane? What is the world coming to?! I have a mixture of Flow Aide and Airbrush Thinner 50/50 for stubborn Vallejo paint that seems to work well. The flow aide helps keep the paint from sticking to the needle and is...

Man, I wish I had found this Mr. Koppalakki USS Missouri build BEFORE I started mine. This guy (https://modelshipworld.com/topic/18597-uss-missouri-by-koppalakki-finished-tamiya-1350-plastic-1991-configuration-with-pontos-detail-set/) built a museum quality piece. It doesn't hurt that he served...

I am glad you made it Cole! Our group, Soque River Modelers, have some members who are master level so Cole has some good resources to pull from and we are meeting Saturday night. Rick Amend is a master at weathering; I have never seen anyone better, ever. AMT paid Chris Carter to build a dump...

Hey Cole, glad you made it. I told you this build would be an inspiration!

I ordered the printer and more resin today. Things are getting close!

So, the Mo continues. The PE set I have is for the WWII version so a lot of the railing is changed. I am having to guess or make up where the railing goes. I am using a generic railing set to supplement what is missing. I may have figured out the glue situation. Thanks Paul @Heavens Eagle for...

Close. We are still fighting with Amazon. After saying they would refund $1320 they ended up refunding $470 because the printer was broken when they got it back and not sellable, which is all bullshit. No shit Sherlock?! Broken? You don't say! I would have thrown it in the garbage rather than...

Well, it is better, but I am struggling with a few small parts. I have countless hours in this dang thing LOL. Not kidding, probably near a hundred. All because someone asked for a twin mount MG34 for their tank. I have to count it as a learning experience. The part that is still giving me fits...

Welcome back. I feel like one of those new ones you mentioned LOL.
