New build 1:32 Tamiya F-15C with lots of goodies She's really looking sharp. I'm envious as I sit here cutting apart the Zero's wing for the float conversion - I wish the "body work" was closer to being done.

That would also make an awesome light fixture. It's looking awesome buddy. Are you going to make it in time for HeritageCon?

I have some, it leaves horrible edges no smoother than if you were to paint the parts with a brush, plus it often tends to lift the paint which it is masking. I try to avoid it as often as possible. The masks I have made have taken mere seconds and no cleanup. Hold tight folks, the cockpits...

Chuk, it is the least I can do to give you credit. I thought i had learned as much as i could and that my skills had peaked - and then i discovered your threads. I have learned much from you and best of all, I am lucky enough to be able to call you a friend. :drinks I peddle your threads every...

Don't you dare turn me into a Gunze product! [They no longer sell to us Canadians and it's irritating.] I'll settle for Mask Man, to the tune of Batman though :salute Thanks Luiz. I try to share what I've learned from the likes of everyone here. A pay it forward kind of deal.

Hey guys I realize it's been a while, but it is that time of the year and I've been running around. I'm finally getting some solid modelling time in and I hope to have the cockpits closed up this week. First though, some [hopefully] helpful stuff. I hate seams - especially on parts that are...

Cool build. The stretcher is nice a clean.

This reminds me (I saw the lid) that I'm loving the Gator Glue we got, I wish I had discovered it ages ago. Looking good man.

Interestingly, I just picked up a copy of the matching 1/32 N1K1 from Revell. Should make for an interesting build. I can't remember the last time I bought a bottle of Testor's paint.... (as opposed to Model Master, which is my go-to for enamel). Thanks man, I'll do just about anything to...

AOTAKE This subject deserves a post of its own. It's a contentious issue and no one will ever agree, but I'll give you my take on the subject. Aotake is a translucent paint used by the Japanese. It's bluish green in colour and it is primarily a protective coating for bare metal, although...

Uh oh guys, an update! I've been working away, did a lot of cutting for the Rufe conversion only to find that some of the pieces in my set had shrunk considerably. One email to MDC and new parts are on the way! I've been slowly plugging away in the meantime. Work on the interior is...

Get better soon buddy, sorry to hear the bad news.

You are a brave man. Interesting build. The fact that there's no glass makes me scratch my head.

New build 1:32 Tamiya F-15C with lots of goodies Fap :love

Wow, really cool stuff Ian, thanks for reminding me I cant draw.

But not paying attention apparently. lol.

This build is progressing slower than Tim Horton's Field.

So which of the primers did you use? I just picked up their matte black. How much do you thin them? I've never used Vallejo paints before.

Eagerly anticipating a conversion kit. Mooo?

I'm also curious to know which forum is disappearing.
