Did you have any problems getting the landing gear to fit? I can’t seem to get mine to fit. -

I’ll be buying a sheet. Very happy to support and am really looking forward to the Vader jet! -

I am definitely interested in this scheme! Been waiting for a long time to get 1/32 Growler decals so thank you for putting in the effort to make some. -

The Flightline Resin parts are very nice. They also do a Next Gen Jammer pod that is a replacement for the ALQ-99 pods.

I am having the same issue with the nose to middle fuselage section. Big gap. Lots of filling, sanding, shaping, rescribing required. The step between the resin tail section and the 3D printed middle section, however, was not fixable (the resin part was "larger" and really couldn't be fixed with filler or sanding to maintain the profile). I asked Jetmads for a new tail section and they sent me two 3D printed versions. Interestingly, though, one of the new 3D tail sections had a large crack in it. This fixed the problem and I do commend Jetmads for sending me new pieces. This kit does require a lot of work and I've been doing it in stages as I'm not exactly the skilled modeller that some of you all are. -

I would also prefer cockpit, wheel wells, main spar to correct the dihedral, etc. over an engine. From my perspective, there's a lot to correct on that model to improve its overall aesthetic before putting one of your beautiful engines on it. Just my two cents... Chris

Mirage 2000D Color Reference
Chris_B-1B replied to Chris_B-1B's topic in Aviation Discussion & Research
Thanks! -
I am building the 1/32 Kitty Hawk Mirage 2000D kit and am in need of color reference for the aircraft - wheels wells and particularly the cockpit (I think its all black, but not sure what color the seats are or any of the associated avionics/cabling colors). I do have the Duke Hawkins book but still need some help matching paint colors. TIA Chris

…and Jetmads replied this morning saying they would send a 3d printed aft fuselage section to replace the resin one. Kudos to them for a fast response and a 3d printed solution to match the other part!
-
I bought the X-3 Stiletto and pulled it out the other day to start working on it and have run into a big problem. The fuselage is split into 3 parts with the fwd and mid fuselage being 3d printed and the aft fuselage section in resin. The front two pieces fit pretty well, the aft to mid fuselage join, however, is way out of whack with the resin piece being larger than the 3d printed piece which leaves a large step between the two pieces. It not blendable at all. I sent Jetmads an email to see if I can get a better part to try but I'm thinking that maybe they intended the resin to shrink a little bit, but it really didn't and it doesn't match the 3d printed part at all.

Any ideas why after I applied a gloss coat (Tamiya X-22 thinned with Tamiya acrylic thinner) would cause a perfectly adhered decal (applied to same X-22 gloss coat) would lift and cause bubbles in places?
