    I had to print out blank forms and used the old fashioned hand written method. Wish they had a pdf version.

    Well I heard back from Don and he is in. IF not to impose I would like to bring Mark from Wolfpack decals along as well. Great guy and we can twist his are for more 1/32 scale decals. Mark can be Smitty's plus one!

    Thanks everyone for the kind comments. This project started years a go and was the inspiration for the F-4B Super Set, and I finally was able to finish it. Cannot say enough about the usability of the Zotz decals. They fit is near perfect for the tail and the shark mouth, and Model Master FS31136 Insignia red is a perfect match for the red on the sheet. Make sure you completely stir the jar! Gary

    Hi, I want to thank everyone for the kind words. They help keep me motivated Yes, Will be in Omaha with this build, "Brain Damage", and several ZM 1/48 Phantoms including a "B Conversion" of a J kit and the new "S"" She is a dirty Bird. I like the look the jets have at the end of a long cruise. The decals are form the Zotz Set. I built the fin first, as If I could not get that to work then it would have been a VF-51 bird. The Zotz set is incredible and I used both Red bottled Micro Set and Daco Med setting solution both with excellent results. A not though when finishing the canopy frame paint it gray, then apply the decals but trim them exact so that no film hangs over. They set easier this way and the slight undersize can be touched up with Tamiya gloss black. I found that the Master Model. FS31136 acrylic an exact match with the decals when stirred complete. The large insignia when on well, as did the shark mouth. The NAVY was cut separately.

    Hey Dick, check your PM

    I should ad that part of the intimidation for me is that we have some fantastic ship builders in our model club. One fired build 1/96 cruisers and is currently building a 1/96 WWII Hornet, in RC. I am on the fence that I should build the mine as a RC. With my luck with RC the minute I send her out, it will capsize and sink!

    Iain, Looking forward to this project to see how it goes and offer encouragement. I received the USS Missouri kit with the Pontos set for Christmas this past year form my wife and daughters. Man these 1/200 kits are huge!!! I am intimidated and fear it will take months of reading and study just to feel brave enough to start the monster! The wife really wanted a 1/96 USS Constitution, but wood and knots are not my thing and I can only imagine the fun the cat would have helping me with the rigging!! The Hood is a beautiful ship, enjoy!!!!!

    Excellent work! Those pipes and cockpit details are much more difficult and time consuming than they look.

    On the real jest the speed brake sits on top of the fuselage and the edge you see is what shows when fully closed. The Tamiya kit is made wrong with the speed brake recessed into the fuselage. I always close mine the details are all wrong and I like the closed look. Depending on the period the speed brake is either a webbed metal part or now a composite with a modeled structure on the underside.
