Looking good Warren!

I bit the bullet on the 1/16 Puma a while back. Should be coming in about any time. I am hoping Andy or Das Werk will do one of the U.S. halftracks in the larger scale. I know that years ago there was a restored half track that would run around Tulsa once in a while. Was in a hobby shop on...

James, I am really sorry to hear about your mom and wife. I have some idea of how hard that is as years ago my wife had a stroke which disabled her in a weird way and then she ended up with cancer a few months later. Later on my dad ended up with Alzheimer's. He did very well up until about...

VERY NICE Paddy! I agree with you on the amount of detail that is there and how difficult it must be to get it together and correct. Eduard has really upped their game in recent years. The only problem I ever see with these tiny builds (not yours) is the paint. The smaller the build the more...

Thanks Bob. I figured that little process out a long time ago when I was working on a limited run kit (before I came here) I really needed to thin down the sides of the fuselage a lot and get it consistent. I have a 1/32 B-25, B-24, and P-61 that I will use this process on with the tail to...

Actually Bob you can see a whole lot of this as the openings are fairly large. Remember this is a 1/32 scale aircraft and it ends up being fairly large. Not gigantic like a B-17, but fairly large. Thus, while you don't necessarily notice things being missing as not many folks are familiar with...

Looking really good John as always.

Very carefully.

Paddy should have been a watchmaker. Get out your 5X watchmaker's loupe, binocular microscope, and the high magnification optivisor. :bigrin: looking forward to seeing what you do with this Paddy.

If you want something smaller try stretched sprue.

Looking GOOD Dave! :vgood:

I have been impressed with what I have seen of Eduard's Brassin in recent years. Have a number of the BMW 801 engines that are just so VERY nice. Can't hardly wait to see what you do with all these goodies.

Looks really good John! Bob Letterman wanted one for his "Logistics" diorama and scratch built one in 1/35. Not sure if I have a photo, but next time I head over and see Susan, I will try and take a lot of photos of "Logistics" as it sits.

OK, got busy tonight and here is another update where I am going through all the old build stuff, reviewing it and making sense out of what I did back then. In some cases it is a little rough as I am working with OLD photos, but it is holding up well and my posting skills have definitely...

Thanks for looking in guys. I think you will find the next installment rather interesting. Something I didn't have to do, but decided that it would be fun to do anyway.

That strap with buckle looks really good.

I have one of these that was given to me half built. Now I guess I know why. Too bad you had so many problems with the kit Paddy. Your workmanship was excellent and nothing to really feel bad about. For grins I might pull that box down and see just how bad it is but not really interested in...

Do you have a link to the reciprocating sander James?

What are the paints that you have on the paint mule Bob?

I bought a new bottle of Solvaset from Sprue Bros a little while ago and it still has the plastic seal on it. Might be the same stuff, I will have to check.
