Nakajima NK1C Sakae 12 from TAM A6M2b This build A6M2N is TAM A6M2b using MDC A6M2N Rufe conversion. Also my first build 2012 returning to this hobby after >30 year hiatus. I look at it now and I'm tempted to strip paint off for repaint. My skill-sets have trended since this effort.

I'd love a walk through your garage then teeing you up for some great discussions. My little head might pop from all the information/education.

Positive vibes to you and your family Theo. Stay safe and model on. Best - Rick

Aaron, I'm stunned in a positive way. Thanks for taking one for the LSP Team. With Theo's family angst, I would have certainly been fine with no receipt of the Raffle. Thanks again Aaron. Model on and stay safe. Best - Rick

of course. i'll stand by for response.

Thanks for pulling this together. I'm in the mountains (somewhere in central VA) with no cell signal. Currently at the local store down the road for our camp. Bandwith! Yea! Will reach out to my contacts mid week. Stay warm and have safe holiday and hopefully a much improved 2021.

beautiful work, engine is special.

Great stuff here Brian. Keep up the problem solving. Its a pain for sure. Think of it as exercising your brain to keep mind sound and functioning. Love the engine work.

I'm looking to find a good detailed resin replacement for a Safire III FLIR. I've searched around and not having any luck. Any assist much appreciated. Best - Rick

Picked this up from HLJ, via group order, when Tamiya first released this kit in 2015. Saw plenty of beautiful builds of this kit on LSP. The bar clearly has been raised. This will be an out of box build with exception of instrument panel and gun barrels. Cowlings, .303 and 20mm gun bays will be buttoned up. I'm leaning towards a SEAC scheme. hard to believe there are almost 2 dozen parts here. Primer applied to the future "hard to reach areas". Primer complete. MRP 111 Grey Green, MRP 77 NATO Blac

So what's 4 years, right? One the bench with the A29. Starting off with the cockpit the Martin Baker Mk.8 seats get some PE love. Each seat has 4 PE parts. Parachute packs test fitted to top back of seats. Rear seat IP dashboard coam gets some annealed PE attention.

Thanks guys. I'll let you all know how I do.

Hey LSP base. I'm looking for Post with Screws. Material can be white metal-steel, aluminum or brass-preferred. Photo shows style I’m looking for. The Post with screws in photo is NOT THE SIZE IM LOOKING FOR. Most likely an electronic size. Dimensions: 5mm diameter - Head 3mm diameter - Post 13mm length - Screw I need 6 sets. Assumption I’ll have to
