  1. @Buff5876 If you click on HERE in my earlier post, you will find none of the scam you implied but this link about image posting tutorials: Glad to be of some help. Cheers, Quang
  2. Like I replied on your other thread, look HERE. Good luck, Quang
  3. It’s easy. Looka HERE
  4. MiniArt kits are notoriously known for their very tight tolerance in the location pegs. Just enlarge the slots a bit and they’ll fit with a click.
  5. I’d suggest you compare the details of the final and painted assembly of 20 parts with the alternative comprising of 3-4 parts. May be those who moan and whine won’t see the difference but hell, what do I know
  6. IMO MiniArt is one of the best manufacturers of 1/48th airplane kits along with Eduard and Airfix. I’ve built 3 of their P-47 D bubble tops and am currently doing their Junkers F13, everyone with utter pleasure.
  7. What’s wrong with the good ol’ lollypop stick?
  8. So did the Zoukei-Mura but not the Trumpeter. Yet as I recall it, it did not bother the many folks who built the Trumpy.
  9. Does the Fisher kit have it?
  10. I tried acrylic water-based primers like Vallejo and Mig-Ammo years ago without success. Didn’t bin them but put them on the shelf of doom and returned to my trusty Mr Surfacer 1200 from Gunze. Until several months ago, I stumbled on a YouTube video showing how to use them PROPERLY. It worked wonder The secret is NOT to dilute them so much even if they seem to be thicker than what we’re used to. And secondly, leave them untouched at least 24 hours to settle down and harden. The result is a tight, smooth and hard semi-gloss skin impervious to any kind of paint you may cover it with. Anyway like always YMMV Cheers, Quang
  11. The Walker Bulldog was a familiar sight to us schoolboys in Saigon 1965, the ‘year of coups’.
  12. I’m Quang, not Thai. We may have the same eye shape but I can assured you, we’re different people.
  13. What total lack of decals? This is TTmodelworks, NOT Dodo Products
  14. I bought the A6M2-N Rufe Duo Combo. I must have something with Eduard’s Zeros. I was about to finish my 4rd when my attention was diverted by the arrival of the new Miniart Junkers F13 floatplane. We’re living exciting times. So many great kits and so little time left before Armageddon
  15. Thank you @ Hardcore. You just lifted off 43 euros from my half-empty wallet.
  16. Sorry Vince I quit following Lovecraft centuries ago.
  17. What’s wrong with Dutch? Mind you, he could have responded in Samoan. ‘E le'i sauni le fa'ailoga i le fa'ai'uga o lenei tausaga’
  18. FYI here’s how the song ends: Deep in December, it's nice to remember Although you know the snow will follow Deep in December, it's nice to remember: Without a hurt the heart is hollow Indeed… without decals a kit is shallow
  19. Want to know how to make a military parade? Just ask the Brits . BRIO AND CLASS GALORE
  20. Try to remember The kind of September When life was slow And oh so mellow
  21. Checking out for the incoming ‘fabulous’ Golden Dome in 1/35 scale?
  22. I used to laugh at my old IPMS friend who sent money to Scaleworx. Now I guess we are two of us
  23. Slight correction here, Erwin: I won’t buy a kit without decals UNLESS the seller tells me that the decals are readily at the printer’s and that I would receive them …very soon. This whole affair did NOT originate because I was being naive when I paid for the kit. I know that role-reversing is the current trends in world affairs but then…
  24. At least it’s something you don’t have to worry about. A true professional would have calculated the extra postage costs and include them beforehand in his pricing. Does it rain in Southern California? The main issue is that we modellers are a enthusiastic and trusting band even if some (like myself) are gullible by nature Cheers, Quang
