Opened a new bottle of Mig's solution for masking parts. Apart from being hard to get the lid off (had to use channel-locks), the stuff is all but solid in the container. Can the blue-goo on the inside be thinned somehow, or is this just one to toss in favor of brand-x?

Mechanik Schwarzes However, those are just overalls, or "drillichanzug." Otherwise, their uniforms were Luftwaffe regulation blue-grey. -

Buy one, get one (free)... However, I think that the sale was more like "buy one, get 25% off the less expensive item in your order."

Hence, my second question, although scale may be the deciding factor. Even at that, I can't offer a definitive suggestion as to what might be too small. 1/72 perhaps? Can everyone agree that the larger the scale, the more approachable free-handing "the mottles" might be?

Quick questions for you gentlemen… I certainly understand the utility of masks in stippling, but doesn’t using a mask produce “hard edges” on the individual tags? If so, do you gentlemen believe that it matters?

In addition to being a fine model airplane, it's also a tremendous bargain, price-wise, compared to other newly released LSP. -

Had an interaction with a vendor who makes AM for WWI model planes several months back. I could sense the anguish in his comments about business, and tried to cheer him up. However, I really did get the sense that the demise of Wingnut had sealed his fate. Modelers can pick and choose who to order from, but I've got a feeling that MANY of these gentlemen are in REAL trouble in terms of sales and financial viability.

Beautiful model! Can you share your experience assembling the forward part of the fuselage and engine compartment? I ask because it seems a lot of modelers struggle with that aspect of building the kit.

Tim, I checked on an IPad/Duckduckgo just now, and your pics display fine. I suspect that the issue is owed to my having Malwarebytes running in the background or Windows Update having run yesterday evening. Model looks great, BTW -

Your JPG files are displaying as small icons, at least on my display. Edit: Tried another browser, same deal. Edit#2: Nothing displays in Firefox or Edge, except for links to Imgur. This is what's displaying in Firefox and Edge when I click on the links to the images: -
Martin, Your model reminds me of two pics from "Life Magazine:" Well done on your build of this marvelous kit!
