This is really cool. I didn't know this aircraft existed! I was just reading about it at Wikipedia, and that then led me to the Chinese J-20, another aircraft I didn't know existed! Of all these 5th generation stealth fighters, I think I like the J-20 the best; it reminds me of the fictional MiG from the movie "Firefox" with Clint Eastwood, if anyone remembers that! Keep up the good work; the cockpit looks great!

I have bought and sold thousands of dollars worth of plastic model kits on Ebay. I use them for most of my buying, and for the most part, I will buy from anywhere/anyone if they have what I want and the price is right. I have bought many from Japanese or Hong Kong sellers. I've never really had a single problem on the buying or selling end either. It seems like a lot of modelers out there have their mind made up that Ebay is "evil" or filled with scam artists, and so that is the manufactured reality they choose to live in. I'm sure th

Unfortunately, I do think the kits on sale at the air show amount to the "warehouse sell-off" we have all been waiting for. Congrats on getting a piece of the action. Very few people are in a situation to do that! -

If it means new kits actually being produced and sold, why wouldn't every modeler here hope so? I think a lot of guys here just like to *****!

Do you gift built models to friends and family?
ringleheim replied to mpk's topic in General Discussion
I have thought about this over the years, but never really found someone who would have the interest in the gift. I would enjoy making something for someone, if I actually knew someone who would want a model. Most of the people I seem to be around kind of laugh and giggle thinking it's silly for a grown man to play with children's toys. That type of thing. If they built one, they would understand it's not quite like that at all! -

Nice work! Those wooden decals look great.
-
A very interesting effect you have modeled here. I think it looks great!

They all look great, but I think my favorite is the P-40F "El Tigre". I don't think I've ever seen a model of this plane before, and I really like the overall presentation. Nice work!

Both kits are far from great models, but I prefer the Trumpeter. It goes together better. The Revell has a some better detail in areas, though.
-
Coming along great! I like the color you used on the transmission. Looks very good.

In a recent "new products" video, Andy from Andy's Hobby Headquarters mentioned that he has learned of an incredible, new, beautiful Tamiya kit that "caught me totally off guard." He promised Tamiya he wouldn't mention it until they gave him the green light to do so; apparently we'll find out soon what it is. I spent a good hour wandering around the web last night looking for hints, clues, or discussion on this kit, and found NOTHING. Anyone have any guesses? I think there is a shot that it's another new 1/32 aircraft kit, but then it could be lo

Several of these have sold somewhat near the $1,000 (US) mark now. The market seems to have corrected somewhat on the last few Ebay sales, though, when prices have gone back in to the $400-$500 range.

DeAgostini Millennium Falcon 1/1 scale, updated 11/8
ringleheim replied to cbk57's topic in Non-LSP Works
Looks great! I really appreciate the shots on the bench, pulled back a bit, with all those everyday objects all around. Really conveys a sense of scale and size. I wish more builders would include photos of this type in their build threads.
