wow.....what a loss to his family, friends and the modeling world. I'll have a drink in his memory tonight. RIP Russ

this is such a fun kit! I just finished mine: more here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/shawnmanny/se...57623570552339/ and my rif raf more here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/shawnmanny/se...57621744131887/

excellent!!

The (later) F-82s ran allisons if im not mistaken, making it difficult. The airframe was stretched in the aft and had way different undercarriage. The center section of the wing was constant chord while the outboard sections were more H then D. I too would LOVE too see a 1/32 kit available.

yes it would be huge, I'd be happy with a 1/72 scale even....anything really.

if I may suggest a PBM Mariner as resin kit candidate.

looking good Tex, homestretch in sight?

your cockpit is stunning!

wow! Those burners and pipes look the biz! Great work.

Wow....

it always amazes me, with such a large scale you'd think the detail would be better. You're doing great work on this, its going to be a real stunner

were the kit parts that bad?

but lead tastes SO good! who else misses the wall candy?

what...you're not done?

excellent! I love '110s. Ron, I sent you a message.

awesome!

does the faa have to approve your builds before they are displayed? Seriously this is master class work here.

hrm..lead foil huh....I just noticed that the yogurt and pudding we eat has a nice lead foil "lid"...may be about right. Thanks for the advice guys! I will start on the tarp as soon as my messa-shnitzle is done.

"holy %$#!" my exact words. Your painting is unreal!

watching with keen interest. I've been eye balling these WNW albatrii(?) since they were announced. Might need to buy myself one for my b-day next week.

what works better, snot or glue? I got lots 'a both right now....achoo In that past I've tried to thin whit glue with water and it just makes...well.....snot. Whats the trick? Thanks gang! I will have to give it a try.

sweet! keep at it

Looking for a good how to for modeling canvas tarps and covers. Going to be doing a corsair and I need to make an "engine" cover as seen on carrier flight decks.

eeeeeeeeeexcellent smithers

Thanks Kev! That's far easier for me to replicate. Any chance I could get a link to that discussion? EDIT: Beat me to it! Thank you
