Welcome to the BIG time James!

Welcome back!

So far so good!

Been there done that Greg. Sometimes the most obvious solution goes right over our head.

Looking good Gary!

Measure the model part.

I also never apply super glue from the bottle. I make a puddle on a sapphire watch crystal and use a small applicator to place small amounts along a seam.

Let me find my kit tonight and see if that part is in it. It might be that your kit was just missing that part and the guy marked it up. Yeah resin kit parts are not shake and bake builds. Some are good, some are horrible. The main reason I have not yet attempted any of my HPH kits, though...

His course is $400+ so nah. I would go the book and video route. Besides Greg has been doing some bang up work on Blender so I am sure he had a handle on it.

It looks really good Greg! You did an excellent job. As to the photos, it isn't the resolution of the photo, but the file size. I think the file size has to be smaller than 2Mb though I might be wrong. Bob Puppy can give the actual max file size.

I will pass on the overpriced Trumpy kit that is probably way wrong in the first place. Who says? 😲

I have this kit with some Russian markings to do a "Lend Lease" plane. Only thing I would suggest is to get a jeweler's saw and some fine saw blades. Xacto tools and saws are not the best for resin parts as you have discovered. Take things really slow and test fit even way beyond where you...

Sorry to hear that Barney. I have seen and heard stories like this for years and it is one of the main reasons that I am still single and happy being so.

Who has the quad 50 on a half track?

I think most people are using Blender as it is basically free and there is a guy that teaches how to use it if you are interested.

I looked on his site John and it isn't mentioned. I suspect the Rhino3D program with the $900+ cost was the killer on doing the class.

Didn't know you were going through that John. Glad to see you posting and building again. Keep up with the struggle, we are all pulling for you!

Well this is turning into a saga or a pain. It is now obvious that they had someone doing the 3D work that had difficulty visualizing what they were doing. A lot of complex angles and items that had to work together and that guy buggered it. SO, I was done with my little mods to add the...

I have not had to worry about that stuff for 23 years now.
