  1. Now THAT is something special! Very well done Sir. I can’t imagine that it was an easy build so congratulations on getting it done in such a fine fashion. Cheers, Wolf
  2. Just read through your entire thread, Tom. What a great build and it’s obvious that you’re getting the best out of this kit. I finally managed to get one of these kits myself and hope to get in to it at some point in the future. Having your build as a reference will help me to know what to expect with potential fit issues and what to look out for so thank-you! Keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing ‘er with some camouflage paintwork on. Cheers, Wolf
  3. Thank-you gentlemen for the birthday greetings! Along with turning 65 this year I also retired from my job after 33 years 8 months. It feels strange not having to get up early and head off to work. I’m starting to get used to it though. Once I get to a bunch of things that need doing around the house I plan on getting back on the bench. Cheers, Wolf
  4. Beautiful work Quang! Martin sent me the link to your build earlier today. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to log in for a while as I completely forgot my password. I tried a few different ones today and got lucky! Your build brings back a lot of memories albeit in 1/32nd scale, LOL! I have to question one small detail though. The small placard you added to the front of the small hydraulic tank that sits between the oil separator and the coolant tank for the intercooler shouldn’t be written in german! That made me laugh. Is the surface of the fuselage smooth? Their Hellcat has a slightly pebbly surface texture which really needs to be sanded down. Keep up the great work. Cheers, Wolf
  5. Thank-you all for the birthday wishes! I’m still around but I’ve recently immersed myself in working on a car model. There’s a whole new world in aftermarket stuff for vehicles! I had to have emergency surgery for a perforated ulcer the beginning of February. I spent two days in ICU after surgery and having gone septic, it was unclear whether I was going to remain on this side of the grass or not. I spent three weeks in hospital, I don’t remember anything of the first week. I was off work for a full two months. I’m still dealing with some residual effects of the surgery these days but overall doing much better. I sold off some of my stash and while going through it I discovered just how many car models I had so I figured it was time to have at ‘er on some of them. That’s why I’ve been a bit scarce here. It’s kind o’ like moving to a new neighborhood and finding there’s so much to explore. In my best Arnold Schwartzenegger voice, “I’ll be back.” Cheers, Wolf
  6. Craig, This has to be one of the most amazing freakin’ builds on the the web right now! WOW! Cheers, Wolf
  7. Fabulous Chuck! Fantastic build. I’m going to have to reference your build when I finally get to mine. So many projects……so little time. Cheers, Wolf
  8. Lookin’ good Bill! Love the detailing and paintwork my friend. Great to see you back at the bench. Some day I’ll find mine again. Cheers, Wolf
  9. Freakin' awesome! Very well done indeed Sir. The very last pic is amazing. Cheers, Wolf
  10. Beautifully done Gary! Great photos too and wonderful paintwork on both plane and figures especially when you consider they're 1/48th scale. Cheers, Wolf
  11. Beautiful Mustang! ……..and done in just the right markings. I love the spiral on the spinner! Cheers, Wolf
  12. Looks great Chuck! It’s all coming together brilliantly if not always easily. This, however, made me laugh: “This view confirms that any spark plugs attached to the rear of both cylinder heads is a waste of time.” Just think of the poor bastards that had to change those plugs for real! Cheers, Wolf
  13. Uber awesome on so many levels Jay! Are you going to bring up the outer surface details to the same level? Cheers, Wolf
  14. Awesome film! Hey, if they're just going to scrap 'em, can I have the Fiesler Storch? I'm pretty sure, with the wings folded and some air taken out o' the tires, I can get 'er into my garage! Did I say "PLEASE"? Cheers, Wolf
  15. Hi Sophie, Check out Chris Wauchop’s build of the ZM kit. https://chriswauchop.com/2016/12/12/zoukei-mura-132-dornier-do-335-a-0-pfeil/ Cheers, Wolf
  16. Brilliant start Sophie! I have both the ZM and HK kits as well. IIRC the ZM kit has clear fuselage parts. I’ve read that the clear parts are quite brittle so if you’re intending to rivet them with the MDC tool then be very careful. You may wind up with a lot more puzzle pieces. Cheers, Wolf.
  17. Beautifully done Woody! Are you sure you want to permanently glue the canopy closed? Is there no provision to have it slide? It would be a shame to obscure all that beautiful detail. Cheers, Wolf
  18. Perfection Chuck! Beautiful job on the wing roots. Doesn’t get much better ‘n that Chuck. Cheers, Wolf
  19. Wonderful work so far Chuck! I’m following along with keen interest as I’d like to make the Hellcat my next build once my current project is done. I’m curious to hear your thoughts on the Aerocraft cast landing gear set. I have just about everything I need for my build now but haven’t decided whether the kit gear is good enough or if the Aerocraft gear warrants the extra cost. Cheers, Wolf
  20. Fantastic Pete! I can’t imagine a more well deserved award. Just freakin’ awesome! Cheers, Wolf
  21. Hey Chuck, Good to see you back on the Hellcat and wonderful work on fitting the forward windscreen. I’m taking mental notes on what to watch for when I start in on my own kit. Congratulations on the awards you earned at the RMMC show. Well deserved! Cheers, Wolf
  22. Oh my goodness, I almost missed this thread! Lots going on in the world of Wolf so I haven’t been checking in very much. Nonetheless I want to wish you a belated Happy Birthday Maru! Looks like you’ve been having a fantastic time and I hope you continue to do so for many years to come. I wish you all the best as you celebrate, what is it, 37 years old? You young ‘en you! Cheers, Wolf
  23. Beautiful! Love the colours and markings. Cheers, Wolf
