Great to see her on her feet! Good choice on the Bristol M1.C, but with the Chaika's gull wing and I-struts it may need less rigging than the M1.C! Regards, Jason

That's a shame about your accident - she was looking beautiful! I'm sure you'll get it sorted out, though. This is a kit I'm tempted to get, but first I need to get ICM's I-153. Both the Gladiator and the Chaika are two of my favourite aircraft. Regards, Jason

Yak 3, the Special Hobby Hi-Tech Kit
Learstang replied to Dpgsbody55's topic in 30 Years of the Eastern Front 1915-1945
Excellent Yak! Regards, Jason -
That's an excellent selection of subjects, especially the Wyvern! I look forward to these kits! Best Regards, Jason

Well, I missed that one! A Havoc/Boston in 1/32nd scale - now that's one I might consider buying. Let's see - a 1/32nd scale He 111, Ju 88, He 219, B-17, B-24 (whatever its problems), Lancaster, A-20, A/B-26 Invader... I'll definitely need a bigger house, and bank account. Now how about a Pe-2 or Tu-2 for us Soviet aircraft modellers, like myself? Regards, Jason

All I can say is that definitely looks like a Marauder! Excuse my ignorance, but someone is coming out with a 1/32nd scale A-20G? Regards, Jason

1:32 Douglas A-26 Invader from Trumpeter/Hobbyboss?
Learstang replied to Iain's topic in LSP Discussion
Interesting. If I saw that join on somebody's model, I'd think they just didn't do a very good job of glueing it on or fairing it in. This photo is a good reminder that on real aircraft all the join lines weren't always perfect. Regards, Jason -

Learstang replied to Iain's topic in LSP Discussion
I'll my put my tuppence in for what it's worth (oh, right, two pennies). I'm hardly a rivet-counter, but those cowlings do look a bit narrow. Will that prevent me from buying the kit (if I have the money when it comes out) - certainly not. And if I have the money, I'll spend it on some better cowlings, if I can't correct the cowlings myself, and if they really are 'too bad' to leave as is. Regards, Jason -

Learstang replied to Iain's topic in LSP Discussion
It would be nice if you could do either the glass-nose or gunship version. Either way, this is a kit I may have to buy. It's one of my favourite aeroplanes also. Regards, Jason -
Actually, what I want is a B-36 in 1/32nd scale! Best Regards, Jason

Brilliant work on the Wurger! You take better photographs with your phone than I do with my expensive DSLR (nothing wrong with my camera, my problems are due to user error). Regards, Jason

Nice work on that cockpit! Regards, Jason

Great schemes - I especially like that British one! She should look brilliant in either one. Regards, Jason

Despite the size (and expense!), a 1/32nd scale A/B-26 Invader is one of my 'dream' kits. I will eventually buy one, if Trumpeter do indeed come out with one. The amount of markings and camouflages potentially available would be huge. Regards, Jason -
Brilliant job! I love that paint scheme! Regards, Jason

Once again, amazing work on this Marauder! Regards, Jason

Brilliant job on that Yak-3! I've always liked that flying sword insignia. Regards, Jason

I've taken a look at these printers - they are at reasonable prices. I've seen one for $465USD, which is less than what I paid for my current printer. Would this printer be practical for larger pieces (could I print whole fuselages or wings for 1/72nd scale WWII fighters or items of that size)? The resolution looks to be quite good. Regards, Jason

A Wyvern?! Now that has my attention. Regards, Jason

This is indeed cutting edge work. With the PC, and a good 3-D printer (and a lot of modelling skill), just about anything is possible. What this will do to the traditional model companies in the long-term is hard to tell - perhaps they'll take to charging people to download super-detailed files to print out their own kits.

Great work on the bomb bay! That corrugated roof is pre-corrugated sheet plastic isn't it? I can't imagine you could 3-D print that out - I know my little printer couldn't. Still inspiring work, as in inspiring me to try something similar, albeit on a much smaller scale (maybe a 1/72nd scale racer, such as the Verville-Sperry R-3). Regards, Jason

I'd forgotten about those - amazing story! But first I need to continue figuring out how to 3-D print an entire 1:1 scale Il-2 Shturmovik. With my small printer, this should take about, oh, twenty years to print. Regards, Jason
