  1. An absolute beautiful molding job on the entire kit with that one exception.... Just picky in my old age and the descrestionary money doesn't flow like it used to. Thanks for checking folks......cheers!
  2. Kind of hard to get a closeup.....iphone and it's still in the plastic bag.........I wouldn't call it a short shot....bacically looks like there was some trash in the mold and it didn't flow smoothly in this area. Got a call into the vendor to see what he can do. Looked the entire kit over and it is really a flassless molding is all other areas.....Hasegawa'ish.......if it was a Trump kit I wouldn't sweat it.....
  3. Anyone here have a molding goof on the left side fuselage, front wheelwell cut out along the sharp edge. Thanks
  4. We waited sooooooooooooo effin long to finally get this kit, .....WHERE are all of the builds?
  5. I'm still in the cutting sprue test fitting and "tweaking" phase....would live to see Trumps Avenger blown up to this scale!
  6. How about those "new" Squadron parachute packs are they be appropriate to the Widow, and anyone tried them to see if the work without to much trouble? Thanks
  7. Johan, I was initially put off after Chris stated that he had goofed one side of his intakes as it related to shrinkage and fit and it appeared in his thread that there was quite a bit of work to get one side to fit / match up. Your build doesn't seem like it had the amout of work that Chris originally stated.....did you find that the case with your conversion?
  8. This scale is GREAT for those starting to get a little vision and dexerity challenged like myself.....storage may be an issue though! Maybe an Avenger next in kit form of course and based on the AM or Trump molds would be nice.....
  9. Delivered today.....this one's a "keeper" very nice......copy of the Trumpy kit.... You can "get up in" this thing and go detail crazy....I think I'll like this scale if they pop out some more with this quality and level of detail. A decent price too considering the size..... .
  10. Got mine yesterday.....WHOA...... Can't wait to see one of these done by you "Master Builders" out there with everything "hanging open".... And following the (hopefully many, as long as we have waited) builds with tips, tricks and helpful build notes to assist me in my build. Thanks!
  11. "Salmon" colored wheelwells?.....I did not know about this color...... Had an "ah-ha" monemt when I googled and found this.... http://www.ipmsstockholm.org/magazine/2006/05/stuff_eng_murphy_f4u1.htm
  12. To to refresh my foggy memory...... basically one end is capped off, the "container" intake part(s) are then filled with the latex, paint is allowed to bite and then poured out.......repeating as needed? Thanks
  13. Johan......lots of pics and tips on those zacto intakes please! Following closely.......again...... Thanks.....
  14. TWO builds going on and NO pictures......you guys are killing us!....lol
