I second the Crusader set and would like to see a Super Sabre set also. Large mike

Really nice work, Barry. I will definetly follow this thread and your modifications once I start working on my Crusader. Thanks and looking forward to more. Large Mike

Only Jet Noises?? Don't forget the bomb whistles and explosions while the cat runs for cover! Large Mike

I recommend you get the cutters that are made specifically for cutting photo etch, and don't use them for cutting anything else and they'll last a long time. I also use a lighted magnifier when cutting these parts. Large Mike

Thanks for you help. I suspected I would have to airbrush the green on, I just wanted to try it with a brush since they are so small, I thought it would work that way. Next time I will spray the green, then coat with future. I appreciate your suggestions. Sincerely, Mike Sulzbach

Hi group, just wondering how you all tint the upper windows in helos green. I tried using Tamiya clear brushed over the windows, after the window were coated with Future. They looked good until they dried, and a big bunch of tiny bubbles showed up. I stripped everything off and tried painting the windows first, but the same result: bubbles. I then tried tinting the Future, but once again the bubbles showed up. Has anyone else had this trouble? Or am I doing something wrong in my methods. I sure would appreciate any help or advice on how to do these better. Thanks. Sincerely. Mike Sulzbach
